Wooden shield

Ultra-effective chess tactic whereby a diagonal piece (i.e. a bishop or a queen) attacks 4 opponent pieces at the same time, so that the attacked pieces form an X-shape between each other, thus (according to legendary chess grandmaster xQc) resembling a wooden shield. The best move in response to the wooden shield tactic is considered to be resignation, as computers are yet to find a position where any response to the tactic doesn't lose on the spot. The tactic is considered to be incomprehensible to inexperienced players and even grandmasters, and only exceptionally high-IQ individuals with an IQ of 107 over are considered to be capable of understanding it.

Coined by prominent proponent of the Bing-Bang-Boom chess philosophy GM xQc, the wooden shield is an essential part of the theory behind the Flying Dragon, Knight variation, as well as the Flying Dragon, I Take Your Pawn variation openings, which build upon the idea that early pawns don't matter - an idea repeatedly corroborated by top-of-the-line engines and neural nets such as AlphaZero.
Noob: I'm a queen, a rook, and two pieces up in material, this guy's got no chance.

Noob: *resigns in shame*

Marauder Shields 

the greatest video game boss to ever exist. unlike majority of in-game bosses who fight the protagonist because of conflicting ideals, Marauder Shields, an indoctrinated turian husk from Mass Effect 3 armed with only an assault rifle opposes the protagonist in hopes of preventing the said protagonist from entering the conduit and experiencing a crappy ending.

His legacy carries on to the campaign to retake the great Bioware franchise, and his name has become synonymous with hope brought upon from sacrifice.
Honor Marauder Shields' sacrifice, retake mass effect 3!

After seeing the krogan, salarians, geth, rachni and the quarians work together to retake Palaven, Garrus Vakarrian's marauder shields helped him to get through the war.

he is a marauder for he stole our hearts
he is shields for he protected us
he lived as a generic enemy character, he died a hero.
RIP Marauder Shields

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!
