Hyper-Individualist Fallacy

The mistaken belief that individuals can be understood, evaluated, or held responsible entirely independently of their social context, relationships, and systems. This fallacy ignores that no one is an island—that choices are shaped by circumstances, that success depends on luck and privilege, that failure is often systemic rather than personal. The hyper-individualist fallacy is beloved of meritocracy myth-makers, bootstrap-pullers, and anyone who wants to ignore structural inequality. It's the logic of "if I made it, anyone can," ignoring that "I" had advantages they don't see. The fallacy allows its holders to blame the poor for poverty and credit themselves for success, both with equal injustice.
Hyper-Individualist Fallacy Example: "He attributed his success entirely to hard work, ignoring the family wealth that paid for college, the connections that got him jobs, the luck that put him in the right place at the right time. The hyper-individualist fallacy let him see only himself, not the system that supported him. His advice to others—'just work harder'—was sincere, sincere and wrong."

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!
