Division 

If Satan and the Lord are divided against themselves their kingdoms cannot stand and are coming to an end.
Division by zero. Division of a family. Division squadron.

How can Satan and the Lord cast out Satan and the Lord? Surely if the Lord and Satan cast themselves out their kingdoms cannot stand and are coming to an end. In this case it is a dead heat draw and tie in which, again, Nobody is the clear winner. Nobody wins again.

Division Day 

October 21, the date of Elliott Smith's death. "Division Day" is a euphemism for the day death strikes, with "division" being the splitting apart of body and soul.
"The moon stood up on the ridge
Looking down where the water shines
And a man looking over the bridge
Like he done so many times

Out of trouble's way
And flying to fall away from you all
It's over division day
Beautiful division day"

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!
