Savanah
(Sáv•án-uh)

Savanah's are exotic creatures that require a bit of understanding. When you first meet one she could be quiet, drawn-back, and even antisocial. This is quite unusual for a Savanah, but depending on the crowed she could come across as stuck up, reckless, dangerous, and destructive.

Savanah's are really quite nice and witty, once you really get to know them. They have a hipster way to them that attracts people, their eyes are the windows to their souls.

Conversation with a Savanah can go in any direction you want, she can talk about anything, if you feel over powered or uncomfortable by the conversation tell her, she'll understand and change the conversation to a new subject.

Having a Savanah for a friend is an interesting, yet worth while, relationship. Savanah's are extremely deep people, but their hipster and sarcastic attitude makes it hard to make out exactly what she's trying to tell you. You have to read between the lines a bit, but what you get out is either funny or intriguing. Don't be afraid to ask what she's really trying to say, and don't be afraid to take risks with her.

Savanah's are reckless and dangerous, be careful when interacting with one, try to see the person underneath. Savanah's often times will try to involve you in their adventures and the memories will last a life time, but so might be the consequences. Be cautious, but willing, when getting involved.
Example 1:
"Savanah is an Alice in Wonderland case, someone better make sure she doesn't get hurt while she's out tonight."
(Alice in Wonderland case: Not cautious / very carefree / wearing rose colored glasses)

Example 2:
Her first impression on me was danger, she said her name was Savanah.

savanah is an amazing person. an amazing friend. an overall great person who gets overlooked because of being shy and too afraid to be rejected. she’s beautiful, strong, intelligent, caring, loving, sweet. savanah is not perfect. savanah is always smiling and laughing no matter what is going on. and yet she is a normal person who cries and breaks down just like everyone else. she overthinks, procrastinates, and is a crazy perfectionist. but don’t overlook or underestimate savanah, she always knows what’s she doing no matter how quiet or how loud. savanah loves life and that’s all that matters.
wow, that savanah is amazing!

i’m so glad i know savanah!

A Savannah: the most beautiful and well rounded, amazing girl ever. She's a free spirit with adventure in her heart but never forgets who she is and who she loves. If you have a Savannah in your life dont let her go. Don't take it personally if it seems like she isn't showing you love because she is deep inside of her. Savannah is precious and has ABSOLUTELY no idea how amazing she is. Comfort her when she needs it and she will comfort you back. She may play hard to get but once she tells you she loves you she damn straight means it. Every little thing she does make her the captivating and elegant soul she is, for although she has a rough life she is able to transcend her troubles and view the present with maturity and hindsight. It's easy to get lost in her eyes but its even easier to lose yourself when they close. She's a gorgeous Angel and your lucky to have one.
i wish i knew more savanahs...

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!
