Ingenuine
Meaning: adj. Not genuine; false; not authentic. Normally associated with persons, behaviours and experiences rather than items.
Etymology: Contrary to popular belief (google the term for examples), this is in fact a word, and can be cited as far back as the 17th Century:
1675 R. Burthogge Cavsa Dei 352 'A many false, supposititious, and ingenuine' Writings.
Source: Oxford English Dictionary online.
The word can be made by attaching the prefix in- (a variant of un-) to the existing word 'genuine', in parallel to in- + sincere, in- + compatible, in- + valid and so on.
Although it may often be confused with 'ingenuous', this is a simple malapropism and does not affect the validity of the word.

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.
