Can also be shortened to simply "syndrome." The unbelievable and unthinkable, not to mention thoroughly unfunky, shit white people do, especially in large groups.
The syndrome was in full effect when the whole crowd started doing the Chicken Dance during the minor-league hockey game.

The syndrome incarnate: Celine Dion, Paris Hilton, the Osmonds, Mormons.
