karangatang
Kar•an•ga•tang; Pronunciation Key (car-angatang) .verb, n.
A fashion of running primarily used to evade car/people/forest creatures, popularized by a small group of bored teens in northern Virginia.
One does a karangatang by placing their arm behind their head as far as it goes and waving it franticly as if on fire, the other hand covers the crotch. This is paired with idiotic noises and a dead sprint. A highly effective way of escaping from a foe in hopes that they think the "karangatanger" is mentally unstable.
The intensity of the karangatang is directly proportional to the amount of alcohol consumed prior to attempting a karangatang.

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!
