Time Zone Dyslexia

A condition where the sufferer routinely adds or subtracts wrong when planning things in more than one time zone.

Side effects include missed appointments, multiple calendar resends, manic tap-dancing through that presentation you thought was 2 hours from now. Adrenaline, cringing, lame apologies.

Coping mechanisms: OCD-like checking of the hour; counting out from East to West coast on your fingers. Pinky: Eastern is 1 pm; Ring finger is Central - so, noon; Pacific is the pointer, that'd be 10 a.m. - right? Right?
You told NYC to dial in at 10 but Chicago at 11; so is the call for 10 or 12EST?
D'oh! 10EST. Sorry - Time Zone Dyslexia.

Dario Time Zone 

Located somewhere between -7 GMT and god knows where in the greenwich time zones, or Super Mario World time.

Hours, minutes, days, weeks, could very well be the same damn thing, or not.

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!
