Coon Tune 

A coon tune, is a type of song that is made to a “trappy” beat, which is then covered up by a bunch of annoying ad-libs, like “yah”, “skrrt”, “aye”, “uh”, etc. Most if not all coon tunes hold zero lyrical meaning, & take no real effort to make. Synonyms for coon tune, can be found in Mumble Rap, & Trap Music.
Person 1: Hey what kind of music do you listen to?
Person 2: Uh pretty much, Lil Uzi, Kodak Black, Lil Pump, & 21 Savage.
Person 1: Oh so you only listen to coon tunes? That's very disappointing, those types of songs are destroying what's left of real rap.

Coon tune 

As sung by ZZ Top and as used by gearheads/motorheads for decades a coon tune is a tune up without new parts. Clean the plugs, set the dwell and timing, adjust the carb. This was done before a race or a night of cruising that some action with other cars was expected. After the night out, the car was detuned for easier driving and better mileage. Don't know if it's racist or not but black folks back in the day generally didn't have a lot of bread. Don't hear it used much anymore probably because it sounds it.

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!
