Derived from the term 'Script Kiddie'.

A Skiddie or Script Kiddie is the term for an adolescent who takes a script from another website and uses it to hack without fully knowing what they are doing.

The key difference between a real hacker and a skiddie is that true hacking requires a large amount of skill, executing a script made by someone else requires little to no skill at all.

Being called a Skiddie or Script Kiddie is possibly the most offending insult a hacker can recieve.

The term Skiddie is often preceded by the word 'Dumb'.

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!
