DeSantis Derangement Syndrome 

An irrational obsession with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is wildly popular with his state, and who is growing in popularity with conservatives and libertarians. As he is seen to be a potential presidential candidate in 2024, he immediate came under attack in 2021 following Biden’s election and quick decline in popularity. The same media players who obsessively committed to biased or even dishonest reporting on former President Donald Trump have quickly refocused their attention on the Governor of Florida in an effort to damage his reputation more than three full years before the next presidential election. Many of the same people who previously could not have even named a single Governor in America besides their own now suddenly are obsessed with discrediting DeSantis- exactly the same liberal base that suffered from Trump Derangement Syndrome, and focused obsessively on Donald Trump. In psychiatric terms, this fixation would normally be diagnosed as obsessive-compulsive disorder. Believing any and all claims that perpetuate this obsession is a reflection of the confirmation bias now intrinsic to the social media hive mind. DDS will only intensify until either he is successfully discredited, or it backfires and propels him to the forefront of the presidential race, where all of the free attention he has gotten for four years will possibly position his as a conservative hero and simultaneously expose and magnify the bias and blatant dishonesty of the media.
“CNN has been running non-stop stories shamelessly attacking Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, they are clearly developing a terrible case of DeSantis Derangement Syndrome.”

“All of my friends on social media who used to have TDS, now have DeSantis Derangement Syndrome instead, it’s really sad to see that become their whole personality.”

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!
