Parent/Teacher Association Stress Disorder

PTASD is the feeling that most volunteers get when they can't say no and they overcommit. Symptoms are:
1. Hiding in the produce department when you see a fellow volunteer at the store.
2. Avoiding your email for days or weeks at a time
3. Flinching, gagging, or retching when someone asks if you got their email
4. Barely slowing down and pushing your kid out of the car at school drop-off so that you can't be engaged in a conversation about PTA.
5. Beginning every sentence with "I'm sorry that I didn't ..."
I have not been able to find Jane for weeks. Does she have PTASD? I need to know about the book faire.

Post Traumatic Ass Disorder. A constant, irrational fear of your ass being harassed in a wide variety of ways, due to an inordinate amount of grabbing, spanking, poking, etc by your friends. The most common observable symptom of ptASSd, is never turning ones' back to anyone EVER, and NEVER bending over within anyone's reach, even if extremely inconvenient, so as to avoid a pen or pencil from being slipped into their buttcrack for example.
After 15 solid years of our butts getting poked and grabbed by everyone else all the time, our circle of friends all suffer from ptASSd.

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!
