groupthank 

The act of "replying to all" on an email chain just to specifically thank one individual. While usually well intentioned (and intentional), the practice often becomes an annoyance to everyone involved.
Person 1: "Did you see that Nicole just groupthanked Brian on an email chain with 120 people?"
Person 2: "Well, at least it's better than what she mistakenly replied to the entire staff after the 2007 Christmas party!"

Groupsink 

The "crabs in a bucket" mentality.

Group work that results in no progress being achieved due to internal conflict and strife. End conditions are either equal to or worse off from those at the start.
The group failed to achieve anything due to all the groupsink going on. People were more concerned about being better than everyone else than actually doing work and sabotaged so many other people they also sabotaged their own work.
