Paper Towel 

Noun
A normal sized towel used to dry things that are wet. The Paper Towel is not particularly useful for projects involving large masses of fluids. It typically falls apart following first few uses because of its limited durability seeing as how it is only made of paper. It is commonly associated with drying humans, drying dogs, and drying cats. It is typical to go through several Paper Towels when drying large breed dogs following a bath or similar activity

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!
