"Frankensteining" is a slang term for mixing and matching different parts of different and often unrelated scripts on Roblox Studio to create a script that functions uniquely to fit your specific game.

This is often used by people too lazy to learn how to code but still want to create games, and simply download multiple (often free) scripts.
"I'm not great at scripting but I'm pretty experienced at Frankensteining stuff together, I've made some unique experiences this way."

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!
