Dudification 

The evolutionary process of becoming a modern day Dude.

Related words: Dudify, Dudified, Dudifiable.

Today's Dude is becoming more self aware, caring for his body and mind in new and better ways in a rapidly changing world. To help him manage this transformation, he buys products that best suit his emerging self – products that extract, define, and shape his modern masculinity. These products handle the Dude's need for simple and convenient ways to handle new challenges, from how he dresses to the skincare products he uses. Today's Dude is not bound by set stereotypes from past generations - he's all about creating his own path.

As a man experiences Dudification, we say that he is becoming increasingly Dudified.
Steve never took good care of his appearance until he started working with other sharp dressed Dudes in his office. Since then, he has really experienced Dudification in his daily routine - he now really looks and acts like a Dude.

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!
