falkens maze 

Falkens maze (AKA Faulkens maze) is a fictional artificial intelligence game from the 1980’s movie war games.

It has also been known to refer to “shepherds maze” an unusually secretive online alternate reality game, available by invitation only. Most likely falkens maze is used as a code or to conceal that players are actually referring to shepherds maze, as some online communities have become hostile towards players. Although they are interchangeable (falkens or shepherds) the actual game is sometimes called just “the maze” as the original game had no name but was given the nickname by players because it revolves around a highly detailed and complex journal written by a man named “Shephard” or “Shepherd”. A known symbol used by players is the sheep emoji followed by the dog emoji (🐑🐕) and/or the numbers (8888 0008). Details of the game are a tightly guarded secret and sometimes compared to the secretive online group cicada 3301.
Remember that scene in wargames where falkens maze says “would you like to play a game”?

Q: Bro have you heard of that “arg” game falkens maze? I heard it’s super crazy and people get obsessed with playing it.

A: yeah man, it’s just another name for shepherds maze, same thing.

falkens maze 

Falkens maze is a secret online and real life game that involves crazy alternate reality type situations. It was written by a blind schizophrenic guy back in the 1980’s and 1990’s and kept a secret by everybody who plays it. The first rule of the maze is that you are responsible for everyone you recruit into it, if one of your recruits talks about it too much then you all get expelled and can’t play anymore. The maze has an almost religious meaning to some people, they take it way too seriously. You can only play it if you are invited.

West Falkland Islands 

A large dependency of the British crown, located on the southern American continent found at latitude 38.4161, longitude 3.6167° W. It is often mistakenly referred to as "Argentina" but anyone who does so is canonically wrong.

In a similar way, the name comes from the residents of a plucky island nation mocking a much larger hostile nation and their (ultimately flawed) expansionist desires. A good example of another country mocked in this way is West Taiwan (who keep threatening to conquer east/real Taiwan).

The official language of the West Falklands is German for reasons that we won't go in to.

They have won multiple world cups, but most of the ancestors of the current population haven't ever had much success on the world stage in "other events".
Guy 1: "I can't wait to go on Holiday to the West Falkland islands."
Guy 2: "Make sure you learn German before you go."
Guy 1: "why?"
Guy 2: "there's always German's on holiday"

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.
