Dongfish 

The most sophisticated and advanced fish in the ocean blue. A large spherical pearl white orb known as the “nutte sack” connected to its primary abdomen. Roughly 67% of its body mass is comprised of this “sack”. Able to reproduce at a rapid pace with hella accurate baby sniping. Perhaps the greatest evolutionary tactic in the animal kingdom, the ability to acquire hella bitches, is a trait of the Dongfish.

denglish 

Denglish is actually the term used by linguists, mainly based in Germany, to describe incorrect English as spoken by Germans whose sole contact with English is at school. It results in something that might in some case sound English but in fact is not or is used in a differnet sense than in normal English usage. Modern German features an over-use of loan words, particularly from English. Germans mistakenly think the expressions/words are correct as they use them.
Bodybag - a new Denglish word for a fashionable bag, worn over the shoulder
Last, not least - an expression used by Germans in the sense of "last, but not least"
Walking - a sport now parcticed frequently in Germany - should of course be "power walking"

denglish 

Combination of English and German spoken by expats in Germany (mostly in Berlin) and Germans who keep on switching between both languages. Words in one language are replaced by words from the other, that are more convinient or come to the speakers mind more quickly. Usually the grammar is adapted for these words so they fit into the sentence structure.

While the phenomenon of unsophisticated people ill-using english words for the sake of their approach to coolness does exist, it is usually not referred to as "denglisch".
denglish: "I don't yet have an überblick of what needs to be done. Kannst Du mir morgen helfen to plan this out?"

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!
