A noobie runescape clan that got owned by Tdm
"Wow, we totally got owned by tdm and pretend they cheated, we (adelais) are big noobs"
Adelais by Monkeigh March 8, 2008
A fairly popular Runescape clan (brake off from Phobia), known for 'ballin!' Although very overated, Adelais thinks to themself they are a top ranked clan, thinking they are the best with their such odd and unusual tactics such as cape switching, spying, bringing "a few clan friends" to pk trips (great tactic), and last but not least, flaming, oh boy thats a big one. Intelligence in Adelais is very low, peices of writing over 5 sentences is unreadable to most Adelais, and serious posts on their forums don't exist (unless sarcastic.)
LOL! We beat DI with only a "few" Df friends, we should be ranked #1 now! lol adelais for #1. lol ballin.

That guy just cheated.
Oh him, he's just an Adelais member.

Adelaide 

A small little town which thinks it's a big modern city.
Which is apparently the capital city of sowf ostraya,
which has been given the wooden spoon award, taken away from Tasmania.

As mentioned, a small town with a very ageist sexist and discriminating attitude.
The minds of people in this town do not have the ability to think
outside the square and suffer greatly from Stockholm syndrome.

The young are extremely entitled and think there shit doesnt stink
and blames all there woes on the boomers, not knowing what a boomer

actually is. The youngs idea of a boomer is someone who is older than them
Eg a 16 year old saying a 42 year old is a boomer.

Monkey see monkey do is the norm here. Speaking of monkeys,
this little town is full of flying monkeys, if your quick you'll
see a few as they fly past.
A: Hey, I was in Adelaide yesterday
B: Adelaide huh, (rolls eyes) did ya catch some flying monkeys?
A: Fekkin' oath i did, they're everywhere

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!
