hear me now, believe me later 

from saturday night live's hans and franz 'pump you up' guys

the idea that a 'truth' might currently be being dispensed, but YOU are too preoccupied, (or too "smart") to absorb it at this particular 'juncture'. you MAY (or may not!) be able to view it from another position sometime in the future, in a different light. (anti-'pot' people??, 'case-hardened' conservatives??)

The next time that Verizon Wireless guy says this overrought old cliche that has worn out its welcome and was already stale before this shitty decade even began, I'm gonna throw an Ottoman stool at the damn TV and watch an electronic flash as the screen is shattered from the impact.
1. I turn on the TV. It's commercial time beings that a show has just ended. The Verizon guy whips out his cell phone. YES he says it AGAIN: "Can you hear me now?"
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!" #SMASH!#

2. Not only can I hear you now but you're annoying the hell outta me! You'd better shut it up now!

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!
