1) Let's go to Vegas. Shit, man, I ain't got much money. How about Laughlin, NV?

Laughlin, Nevada

Laughlin, Nevada is a small town nearly two hours south of Las Vegas and it's Across the Colorado River from Bullhead City. People usually go to Laughlin to go jet skiing during the summer and gamble all their money away. This town has no shit to do except for wasting your money on gambling and getting ripped off at the dispensary for 15 dollars for a joint. A lot of people here are straight up assholes, hoes here are flaky as fuck, some white hoes that go to alternate school are low-key tweakers and all they wanna do is date black dudes so they could take advantage of them and boss them around for no reason even though they claim they're against slavery, shit load of fake bloods and crips and their high school is one of the most retarded schools in Clark County yet. Laughlin feels like a wanna be California with no shit to do but just being by yourself at home and/or chilling with your friends and getting into a shit load of trouble about every little thing.
"hey, I'm an 11 year old blood and I come from Compton to nigga!"
Me: "Omfg, get your head out of your ass and act like what a normal 11 year old would act!"
Also me: "Laughlin, Nevada obviously has no shit to do so no wonder a lot of people from other cities and states come and get the fuck outta here!"

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!
