To cancel something because of weather, even if the weather conditions aren't that severe.

Expression originated in a school district just outside Albany, NY called Ichabod Crane Central School District ,which would cancel school for snow, even if there were two flurries, or better yet, even if there was no snow.

Everybody in the Albany area wished they went to Ichabod Crane in the winter.
Well, even though it didn't rain, they went ahead and Ichabod Craned the picnic.

Well, there's a 20% chance of snow, so I guess we'll have to Ichabod Crane the road trip.

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!
