DC Shoes 

Extremely overrated that makes skate shoes and apparel. They used to be good, but recently they've become so mainstream with their ugly models like the Court Graffik and Air Ventilation shoes. Instead of making good quality shoes to skaters, they often make shoes that sell better to other kinds of people, such as preps, athletes, and even rappers. Their shoes are bad quality because they don't last and you can't control a skateboard to well with them compared to Emericas or Lakais.
Kid goes into Zumiez and buys DC Shoes (Pure XE). Over the next month and a half, he finds that they've been destroyed. He then buys DC Journals (red suede ones) and skates with them. They get worn out in only a month and it costs him. He has decided to never buy DC Shoes again.

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!
