hypernormalization 

The surreal state of late-stage communism in which semantic basis of consensus reality is absurdity.

Analogous to the hyperreal state of late-stage capitalism (postmodernism) in which subjective (individualistic) reality contra-referentializes into intersubjective (synthetic) reality.

Hypernormal

An adjective describing something so very incredibly mundane it gets so hard to imagine. It's so much more ordinary than everything else in its normality. A paradox, honestly. If something is so normal it makes it stand out, then doesn't that make it unique in a way? The opposite is hyponormal, but surely they mean the same thing...
Person 1: Hey, she tries to fit in so much that she's hypernormal.
Person A: You're making up words by putting 'hyper' in front of them. Besides, maybe she's so much more normal that she's not like other girls ;)

The girl got out of the hypernormal neighborhood, and never came back or looked back. She found somewhere she loved and belonged when she finally realized she didn't own the town the way she thought she did for so long. She had a neighborhood of her own somewhere, even if she didn't hold it sacred.

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!
