A male hands free masturbation technique when a man or boy keeps relaxing the muscles around his penis. The more he relaxes a strong surge of arousal will cause him to feel orgasmic euphoria and eventually ejaculate. It’s easier to do it if you don’t masturbate for a while.
Gothing is better than masturbating because it gives you a stronger sexual sensation and euphoria!

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!
