akward turtle 

a classy way to describe an akward situation and also to break an akward silence. most popularly used in the lower portin of westchester (yonkers, hartsdale, bronxville) but suprisingly unknown, for the most part, in places like scarsdale and eastchester. the proper hand motion is your hand one on top the other palms up, thumbs moving in a circular motion. many people do it with the palms facing down which is CLEARLY wrong and classless. (see akward uterus, the retarted turtle)
so i was talking about that dirty bitch ryan from Maria and didn't realize she was right behind me, akward turtle or what?!?

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!
