Making conversation with friends via the medium of email. This is usually carried out whilst in the office when one should actually be working. It can also be done in stealth mode. It is common for the subject matter of the banter to be of a smutty nature and to contain plenty of toilet humour. Other topics of discussion can include football, sexual encounters and general sicko talk. It is believed that the word originated in Brighton between a group of lads that went to Cardinal Newman school.

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!
