The term "nigloo" was first used in the 1800's to describe a housing unit for African American slaves in the mild winter of the Slave States. It was a comical plantation criticism of the FOB's that have not been accustomed to a cooler North American climate.

Today, the word can be used to describe any subsidised housing compound, or any type of residentia having to do with cold temperatures and AA's.
1800's:

"Boy Jim, fetch the others from the nigloo, we've got work to do..."

Today:

"Man, that nigloo's gettin full, they better be buildin another."

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!
