fret-gloating
Fretting over a perfect decision that will remove one from an already perfect present. Tends to elicit unfettered gloating once the decision is determined to have been the right choice. Fret-gloating typically appears in social media status posts. Although disguised as fretting, fret-gloating is a double down on bragging.
Allison is fret-gloating in her social media posts again. "Our yearlong vacation to Paris is rapidly approaching just while my garden is looking incredible! Wondering if we're making the right decision?"

And all the clouds are holdin' still
So take me hand and let's go roamin'

Baby Gloaming
In nature, a Morning’s Gloaming takes place at the exact moment the celestial sun emergences from out of its eastern horizon. Very few people see this birthing of a new day. It’s purported to strike a mesmerizing flash of emerald green light that is revealing of its own beauty and yet, seemingly resigned to disappearing just as quickly! In nature this mystery of a Morning’s Gloaming is meant to eternally take on just that purpose. This is not the given analogy for a Baby Gloaming!
In New Jersey child adoption law, – revised statute, N.J.S.A 9: 3-39 1 b, c - can process infant adoption in much the same way. There are those in the adoption industry who encourage this form of child procurement. We know it’s legally taking place, we just need to see the hidden injustice. These are the works of adoption agencies on the other side of a Baby Gloaming. In reality, this procedure is nothing short of a Soprano’s money laundering scheme! The only difference is that it is not the diapers being laundered. This infant could have been an Unknown Father’s son!
End note: If an adoptive parent falls under this Urban Dictionary’s definition for ‘Baby Glommer’ it is most assured that their colluding with practitioners of Baby Gloaming had transpired. I welcome your chance to dispute this definition of law as always.

The act of Baby Gloaming is to the State of New Jersey, the same as Money Laundering is to the Sopranos.

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!
