A slang term used in MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) to denote submitting your opponent via a flying scissor heel hook. The term was coined after a Japanese fighter from Pride FC named Ryo Chonan used a flying scissor kick to take down Brazilian fighter Anderson Silva and then proceed to submit him with a heel hook at Pride Shockwave 2004. It is widely considered by many to be one of the most innovative and flashy submissions in MMA history.
This new kid in my MMA training class was talking shit about how he had never been submitted before in competition so I chonan'ed his ass to put him in his place. Needless to say, he shut the fuck up after that.

In the past lots of people lived on the country side - villages. All days they were looking after their beloved - sheep. As time were passing, cities were built and people from villages started to come to the cities. Some of them started to behave appropriately to the new living circumstances, some didn't. They still think they live in village and watch their sheep. Therefore we call them chobans.
E.g. Ivan comes to the city from country side. He likes sheep. He is choban.

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!
