Related Words
An elderly male who gives off a false impression by making much younger females believe that he is nice and soft like cotton when really he is just trying to lure them into bed with him. The word "Cottam" is slang for "cot them" and is used to describe somebody who takes advantage of barely legal girls by being a father-like figure to them and convincing them into using his baby-like penis as a pacifier.

The term "Cottam" can also be given to somebody who is high up in a workplace such as a bar manager, who employs young girls and offers them more suitable working hours in exchange of sexual favours.

Cottams tend to stand out among others as they will most likely always be suited and booted trying their hardest to look important and will always have a unusual smirk on their face which would be best described as a "pedo smile".

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!
