A favored game of those of the Jewish faith, Jewography was born due to the phenomenon that most Jews can get connected in less than six degrees. Though it is usually played at USY conventions/summer programs, it is possible to play it wherever a group of geographically diverse Jews is gathered to eat and schmooze.
Oy…I thought the CJB with the Jewfro was hook up territory until we started playing Jewography. Turns out that he’s my cousin on my dad’s side.
Jew 1: So, you’re from Virginia…Do you know David Goldberg? Jew 2: Of course! He dated my sister’s best friend at Ramah, staffed my brother’s USY on Wheels bus, and is my rabbi’s third cousin twice removed.

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.
