Coprophage 

This means, quite literally, “one who eats faeces”. French beef farmers, supplying meat for export, feed their cattle human faeces as a cheap food as it contains large amounts of partially digested cellulose and thereafter the cows exhibited coprophagic behaviour. Under certain conditions dogs also develop coprophagic behaviour, but this can be prevented, and cured, by feeding them tinned pineapple!

The use of the term has expanded to describe someone who, while not very clever or good at their job, is always smarming round the boss. The sort of behaviour exhibited is:

1. laughing excessively at the smallest joke;
2. apparently sharing the same interests and hobbies as the boss;
3. getting the boss tea or coffee without being asked;
4. sending the boss Christmas and Birthday cards, often with a gift attached;

Exactly the sort of behaviour that makes you think that if the boss crapped on their desk they’d eat it and swear it was ambrosia. These people are usually mediocre to poor performers and its only their relationship with the boss that keeps them from being potted.
“Malcolm’s just given the boss a big birthday card and a present, so I told him he was a perfect coprophage. The twat looked at me as if I’d just paid him a compliment.”
“You did. Nothing about that wanker is perfect.”

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!
