The year I'm writing this in
It's not the beginning of 2017 but it's almost the end. Like if you are reading this in 2018 or above
2017 by Flashtj216 September 23, 2017
One of the best years of my life along with 2014, 2015 and 2016.
Person: "2017 was cool."
Me: "Fr."
Donald Trump will become president, a shit-ton of new movies are coming out, and it's going to go by just like every other year. Jesus people, if the world didn't end in 2012, it's not going to happen in 2017. Trump getting elected is not "the end of the world".

And next December the same dumbasses that looked up 2017 on here will be looking up 2018.
2017 is the year I finally fulfill my New Years' resolutions. Yes I know I said the same thing about 2016, but I mean it this time.

2017 by LordRafox December 31, 2017
The year of oversensitive 9-13 year olds using “DANK MEMES” and talking about having sex and smoking weed, Trump, North Korea, Kim Jong Un, Las Vegas shooting, crime skyrockets, terrible movies, the “laughing crying” emoji, songs that still go on about drugs and sex with no real meaning (most songs have been this way for the last 12 years), and overall just a terrible year. Good riddance.
Tyler: “2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and now 2017 have all been terrible! Five bad years in a row!”
Ryan: “Nah, only 2016 and 2017 were bad for me. If cell phones didn’t exist today’s kids would be more social.”

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
