surprisingly 

"surprisingly" is a filler phrase used by devious businessmen to cover up their incompetence;

its meaning derives from "surprise", verbalizing an unforeseen event. Contrary to this definition,

the word mostly carries the meaning that the interlocutor who is talking to you has failed irredeemably.

To this day, historians speculate about the first historical usage of the word,

because it was only through industrialization that public utilization of the word was conceivable at all.
Johny: "Surprisingly, I got fired."
Unsuspecting Noob: "I'm so sorry for you, you couldn't have done anything better."

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!
