1.) My ex-girlfriend is as Cold as Ice. I would advise you to NOT date her, dawg!
2.) "You're as Cold as Ice
You're willing to sacrifice our love.
You're as Cold as Ice,
But someday you'll pay the price I know.
I've seen it before, it happens all the time.
Closing the door, you leave the world behind.
You're digging for gold,
Yet throwing away
A fortune in feelings,
But someday you'll pay
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!
