Editorial Idiocy Overdose 

The top idiocy level that an Urban Dictionary´s editor can endure because of editing definitions sent to UD by mentally challenged teenagers. After reaching this level the editor, feeling suicidal, shows signs of slight autism, despondency, lack of appetite, and sudden episodes of acute withdrawal.

B: How so?
A: Editorial Idiocy Overdose.

Editorial Ineptitude 

Conceptual and linguistic blunders made by a senior editor or managing editor, as a result of her limited content knowledge of the manuscript and poor grasp of the English language.
Rose resorts to office politics and apple polishing to make up for her editorial ineptitude in occupying the managing director position—she's been promoted to her next level of incompetency, where editors hope she'll cause the least damage to the editorial team.

Editorial Buffoonery

The inconceivable rejection a funny, original and often ingenious word, phrase or humorous expression submitted for review to the editorial staff of Urban Dictionary.

Me: The only possible explanation is Editorial Buffoonery.

Editorial discretion

No. That's not why you're not doing it. You're doing it to screw me out of the recourse I would have access to and you have already reported on it. You have reported on the AI copyright sandal. You omitted part of the story to screw me and now Suchir Balaji is dead. The immigrant you are talking that you theoretically want in the country... Killed himself... Because he tried to do the right thing and actively prevented him from doing that.
Hym "It's also the fact that you're a Jew. I mean, it seems to be the case that Jews are just actively bad people. Right? Like, you're a Jew. You're dogshit. Therefore, Jews are dogshit. It must be the case. So, no. Don't try to blame editorial discretion for your Judaism. You wanted to screw me and now Suchir Balaji is dead because you buried a story to screw me. You're a murderer. You killed him by doing that. You are the direct cause of the guys death. You will be the cause of MY dead. If I take a kid with me you will be the cause of THEIR death. Give up what little control of my life you have. You are not better than me. You are worse."

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!
