Cyberpunk Syndrome 

When a game is rushed to completion after months of hype and suffers from being unpolished.
Black Ops 4, Sonic ‘06, and many more suffer from the dreaded Cyberpunk Syndrome.

Cyberpunk Syndrome 

Since the failure/flop of Cyberpunk, people have adapted an overly forgiving mindset towards the general game market.

'Overwatch 2 is coming out really late, and Overwatch 1 has gotten no ounce of content for 2.5 years?
that's fine honestly, we wouldn't want it to have bugs, right?'
It's been delayed for 2 years? That's ok, we wouldn't want it to have bugs! Better be patient!! Cyberpunk Syndrome

Cyberpunk 2077 Syndrome 

This syndrome appliers to new video games, and occurs when a new video game is announced that gets everyone excited, and hype begins to explode through the roof. The fans get beautiful looking trailers and release dates. Then, the game gets held back quite a bit until the devs finally decide to just release it. This leaves us with a half baked game, where the central core aspects of the game are quite amazing, but the game is a bug infested hell. This splits the fanbase into two groups, one which still praises the game like a godsend from heaven despite the games terrible optimization and bugs, and one which meticulously attacks anything bad about the game, despite the game functioning well enough to play for some people. This syndrome also starts messy debates as to why the game was released in it's current state, which is usually because the devs want to push it out as fast as possible in a "playable" state.
Five Night's At Freddy's: Security Breach suffers from a mild case of Cyberpunk 2077 Syndrome.

flophouse 

Any house/apartment/frat house/trailer/etc. which is used for individuals to crash (sleep, chill, hang out, lurk, etc.) for a period of time. In order to "crash", one must not actually live there (e.g. have their name on the lease, own said flophouse, etc.). Flophouses are typically used by college students, drug addicts, transients, vagrants, or other unsavory characters.

A flophouse may also be the home owned by the parents of a college student, who after being away at college, wishes to live as if he/she is still at college (e.g. staying out all night, returning just to crash at mom and dad's house, then leaving again), rather than conforming to the pre-college rules.
Example #1
Dude: (Talking to someone passed out face first on the floor of his college apartment) Hey man, who the hell are you? What do you think this is, a flophouse??

Bro: Sorry dude, I must have passed out for a minute.

Example #2
Mom: Where have you BEEN for the last three days? You come home just to sleep?? What do you think this is, a flophouse??!!

Son: What's your problem? I'm an adult now!

Hate Sink 

A person you hate intensely not because they deserve such hatred but because they serve as a focus for your general hatred. A healthy way to dispense with excess animosity.
Jake's not really that big an asshole. He just serves as my hate sink.
