Peer Pressure 

A disease pandemic that spreads across most schools and even work places. This crippling disease has the power to turn people from leaders into mind controlled sheep. This can ruin the lives of whoever is infected making them commit to actions they don't want to partake in. It is best to stay away from these types of people as the disease can spread onto unsuspecting victims. People infected with this disease will try to encourage healthy individuals to participate in unhealthy activities that will only hinder their development, including doing drugs, crime, unprotected sex, and many more disastrous activities. There is no cure, however, it can be treated over time and eventually go away with enough proper treatment. A person can be immune to this disease, meaning that s/he has enough self confidence to not be persuaded by the infected. These people will most likely lead successful lives and not end up like the worthless pieces of shit around them.

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!
