Lipshake is an informal term that can be used to describe a friendly or affectionate gesture symbolizing trust, closeness, or agreement between people. Similar to a handshake, which traditionally represents a deal or mutual understanding, a lipshake is sometimes portrayed in creative or fictional contexts as a more personal and heartfelt expression of connection.

Unlike a handshake, which is widely recognized in business and formal settings, the concept of a lipshake emphasizes emotional warmth and familiarity. It is not a standard social or business practice, but rather a symbolic idea used to represent strong bonds, friendship, affection, or mutual respect.

Because the term is not commonly used in everyday language, its meaning may vary depending on the context in which it appears.
"Instead of sealing the deal with a handshake, the couple joked that a lipshake was a better symbol of their partnership."
"In the story's fantasy world, friends celebrated important agreements with a lipshake rather than a handshake."
"Their lipshake represented trust, affection, and a promise to support each other."
"The author used the term lipshake to describe a more personal and heartfelt way of showing agreement."
"For the characters, a lipshake was not a business gesture but a sign of a close emotional bond."

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!
