Well. Anyone reading this must be feeling a slightly unsettling mixture of shock and idiocracy. What is this strange word with no resemblance to anything in particular doing with a definition? The confusion stops here. For anyone who is confused and upset at the mysteries and the origins of this word. Let this information be known now. This word can stand for anything at anytime whenever one has forgotten a certain term or phrase, has trouble explaining something, and or is lazy to actually explain something, or in some cases just is downright upset at the moment and no other word can explain the emotion better. Bakana, can be substituted for anything in any sentence in any situation. You know how many times people use swear words to substitute for direct terms because they're lazy? Well, Bakana, can be used in the same way. Only, its softer and marginally ridiculous.

*.* This word is my complete invention and is a large consumer of my present vocabulary. How happy I am to share it with you!
--There's no toilet in here?

--What the bakana?!?

--See, I wanted to do that, but his damn bakana was just all over the place!

--What the hell am I gonna do with that bakana?

--I don't have time for you and your bakana!

There are just endless options. You can make it as cool as you want (if that's possible) or as lame.

Indulge in the freedom of bakana!

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!
