Lubber Dubber 

Lubber Dubber - The etymology of the word derives from the Ancient Scythian demon goddess of stupidity called "Jeanne". In antiquity, "Jeanne" would seduce Scythian tribesmen into the Northern woods, and unleash her powers of "ugly inbred fatass" on them while chanting "Lubber Dubber" which would immediately stupidify their minds. Once the demon goddess Jeanne chanted "Lubber Dubber" on her unsuspecting victims, their ability to think, reason, do science, use logic, was vanquished, and a state of what would be commonly known today as mental retardation. Thus "Lubber Dubber" is a commonly used term that is often interpreted as "I don't use my brain", or "I am a mindless stupid monkey", although those who use the "Lubber Dubber" motif, ought not insult monkeys , as the chimps levels of intelligence, are clearly much higher.
Who is considered the father of the modern scientific method?

"I don't know nuthin about that stuff, LUBBER DUBBER".

Lubberland 

The name given to North Carolina by William Byrd II in "History of the Dividing Line." In a famous passage from that work, he described North Carolinians as being extremely lazy (see below).
"Surely there is no place in the World where the Inhabitants live with less Labour than in N Carolina. It approaches nearer to the Description of Lubberland than any other, by the great felicity of the Climate, the easiness of raising Provisions, and the Slothfulness of the People.

Indian Corn is of so great increase, that a little Pains will Subsist a very large Family with Bread, and then they may have meat without any pains at all, by the Help of the Low Grounds, and the great Variety of Mast that grows on the High-land. The Men, for their Parts, just like the Indians, impose all the Work upon the poor Women. They make their Wives rise out of their Beds early in the Morning, at the same time that they lye and Snore, till the Sun has run one third of his course, and disperst all the unwholesome Damps. Then, after Stretching and Yawning for half an Hour, they light their Pipes, and, under the Protection of a cloud of Sinoak, venture out into the open Air; tho’, if it happens to be never so little cold, they quickly return Shivering into the Chimney corner. When the weather is mild, they stand leaning with both their arms upon the corn-field fence, and gravely consider whether they had best go and take a Small Heat at the Hough: but generally find reasons to put it off till another time.

Thus they loiter away their Lives, like Solomon’s Sluggard, with their Arms across, and at the Winding up of the Year Scarcely have Bread to Eat.

To speak the Truth, tis a thorough Aversion to Labor that makes People file off to N Carolina, where Plenty and a Warm Sun confirm them in their Disposition to Laziness for their whole Lives."
-- William Byrd II

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!
