Acronym: "Fuck You, Got My Orders"; more pointed and personal variant of FIGMO (nothing matters; short-timer; under 90 days prior to reporting for next assignment). Found widespread use during the Viet Nam "conflict"; representative of the changed generational attitudes between WWII and post-Korean "conflict". Used especially toward authority figures; illustrative of the military's reliance on orders considered unchangeable once committed to paper and signed by even higher authority. The attitude arose from the conviction by dogfaces that they could commit murder while FYGMO and the court martial wouldn't take place until they reached their next assignment.

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!
