Daybreaker

Something that helps those long 8 hour days staring at a computer screen working on that WENUS report.

A video, news article or traveling gypsy show outside your office that makes the day tolerable by giving you a few minutes requiring no concentration what so ever. Baby Boomers used to have a daybreaker at the water cooler talking about their golf game and some dude's ugly kid.
Dude, I was just about to zone out when my BFF sent me this awesome daybreaker link to a pygmy and a rollercoaster.

Every now and then, I search the web for a daybreaker to wake up the staff. Best yet was some guy suing BMW for the motorcycle seat giving him a 20 month woody.

deal breaker 

An issue within a relationship that constitutes one partner breaking up with the other. Note that they do not need to be a "good" reason by society's standards, but are specific and individual to each relationship.
I can't believe he broke up with her because she didn't put out after 10 dates. I guess to him, that was a "deal breaker".

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!
