bad parent 

More of a stigma than the akcual condition, this slang term refers to parents who impose their children the same screen time limits as the persons who "only" subscribe to 20~100 YouTube channels even though these children subscribe to 600+ YouTube channels.
My friends think I’m a bad parent just because I "only" let my kids watch YouTube for 2 hours per day. I mean, they have subscriptions to over 600 channels — they just have the same screen time as the persons who "only" subscribe to 20~100 YouTube channels!

The Bad Parent

A game where the person outside of a parents' peripheral vision repeatedly makes faces or does stupid things to make the baby or child cry, eventually ending in making the parent look like a bad parent because their child is crying out of the blue.

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!
