The act of losing something and doing without it for a long time, then having it again but forgetting to use it. Being spoiled we are used to having things. The opposite is true here with reverse spoilage as we get used to NOT having things.

I like to listen to music while driving in my car. 30 years ago my car radio was stolen, and so during the process of getting a new one, getting the money from the insurance company and picking out a replacement stereo, I got accustomed to driving around quietly. Once I got the stereo, I forgot to turn it on due to the reverse spoilage.

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!
