Roligan (maj.; Roligans) is a nickname used to describe danish sports fans, in various sports, however most commonly- and originating from football.

It is often used as a joke antonym to the english football supporters; "Hooligans", because the danish fans are extremely calm and nice, whereas the english hooligans often shine lasers in the eyes of their opponents.

The description was first popularized in the 1980s, and was a sort of movement to spread a message to the world, that football should be about having fun, cozyness, being calm and well-mannered. Indeed "hygge", often frowning upon the aforementioned crazy, unsportsmanlike behavior of hooligans

The word itself derives from the danish word, "rolig" which translates into "calm". Then pulled together by the last 2 letters of "hoolig'an'"
I love how calm the roligans are. Hooligans are absolute bonkers. I think i will become a roligan to support Denmark!

Roliana is a forum-based avatar and role playing site.
With the emphasis on Literacy and friendly conversation it has become a very popular destination for people fed up with other types of communities.

Because of this, it has had to put up with accusations, mainly from Gaia Online users that it is a rip-off. The two sites use the same type of software phpBB including smilies that come as default with this software. The fact that Gaia Online wasn't the first site of this kind also escapes them.

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!
