beethoven 

Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)
Possibly the most revolutionary and effective composer of all time, Ludwig van Beethoven wrote 9 symphonies with sketches for a tenth, 5 piano concerti, a violin concerto, 32 sonatas (not 23 like it says up there), 16 string quartets, and other various works: in all, over 130 number opera (plural of opus) and numerous other works labeled 'work without opus'. His five piano concerti have sold more copies than almost any other classical record. Beethoven was composer in both the classical and romantic periods. His third symphony in Eb major, "eroica," is said to be the beginning of the romantic period.
Near his last 20 years of life, he finally accepted he was going deaf and went into a state of severe depression, during which he composed very little, but what he did compose, including the famous "chorale" symphony in Dm (no. 9), was great. Unfortunately, his opera, Fidelio, failed horribly because of Beethoven's diminishing hearing.
The greatest mistake of Beethoven's career was Work Without Opus No. 59: Bagatelle in A minor (Für Elise for you non-musicologists). This piece, besides mozart's K 545, is the most-spammed piece by pianists in the history of the world. In fact, it pisses them off, so just don't play it!

Famous Pieces by Beethoven include:
Symphony No. 3 in Eb major "eroica"
Symphony No. 5 in Cm
Symphony No. 6 in F major "pastorale"
Symphony No. 9 in Dm "chorale"
Piano Concerto No. 5 in Eb major "emperor"
Piano Sonata No. 8 in Cm "pathetique"
Piano Sonata No. 14 in C#m "moonlight" (quasi un fantasia)
Piano Sonata No. 29 in Bb major "hammerklavier"
33 Variations on a Waltz by Diabelli
WoO 59 in Am "Für Elise"

Beethoven's 9000th Symphony

1) When you code to the point where you don't know what else to do but to randomly type in jibberish into Blue J. When asked what you are doing, you reply by saying you are playing Beethoven's famous 9000th Symphony, epic in composition and magnificent in execution. Button mashing, frustration and subtle humor at its best.

2)The most invincible code on the planet.
1) Josh: Dave what are you doing?
Dave is seen smashing his keyboard repeatedly after making his fourth for loop.
Dave(in humorous and frustrated tone): I'm playing Beethoven's 9000th Symphony.

2) Jimmy: Yes, the Beethoven's 9000th Symphony program may be built in only one method, violate abstraction barriers, recurse infinitely, use all the system memory, and divide by zero without a ZeroDivisonError

Beethoven 

The German composer who lived from 1770-1827. He had a very strict father who slapped him every time he played a wrong note. Eventually became the world's greatest composer. Later on in life, he became deaf and had an explosive temper, so he couldn't find a wife. And lived in isolation.
Wow that guy is such a Beethoven! So anti social.

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!
