pan-deism 

A group of religions similar to pan-theism, but with a deist outlook on the nature of God. Pan-deists believe that God is immanent in the universe - basically that God is everything and everything is God. However, unlike pan-theism, God is not a conscious or active being, but non-personal and non-interventory.

Diffs from panen-theism/panen-deism, which believe that even though God is immanent in the universe, he also transcends it (exists outside of it partly). Also spelt pandeism.
Oh ignore that dude, he's a pan-deist - he sees the divine in a pinecone even.

I never said that nature has a soul or conciousness - you need to read up on pan-deism to understand.

Hinduism is not pan-deistic; it's panen-theistic.

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!
