A person who moved out to San Francisco during the Internet gold rush at the turn of the 21st century, roughly in the year 1999.

It is a play on the term "Forty-Niners," which refers to people who moved out to San Francisco during the gold rush around the year 1849.

Yes, I did come to San Francisco in August of 1999 to work for pets.com, but I find the term "ninety-niner" offensive.

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!
