Canal Street Special 

When you go to Canal Street in Manhattan, NYC (or a similar knockoff hotspot) and load up on all the fake Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Supreme, Fendi, Moncler, Stone Island, Hermes, Chanel, Rolex, Apple, and other designer/expensive stuff you could ever want. Basically a field day for people who want to have "drip" and look expensive but don't have the assets to drop bands on clothing and accessories.
Jordan: Hey Mark, check out my new Rolex, Moncler, and AirPods that I got yesterday!

Mark: Cool, but don't you work at the $1 pizza place?

Jordan: Yeah but I've been saving for a while

Mark: Okay, but your Moncler patch doesn't scan and your AirPods literally say "Ze Blutoothe devise haz beeen cunnected" like those tiktoks. Seems like you got yourself the Canal Street Special. You don't need to be doing this just stop trying to fit in so much and worry about more important things such as friends and actually making more money.

A Fendi on Canal Street

Oh please I knew she was a liar, she's as fake as a Fendi on Canal Street!

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!
