Short, skinny little impish man who is given looks of disgust by every girl who simply crosses his path. Qualities of the Lord Patheticus include playing many hours of old Sega games, listening to talk shows on the radio, and listening to cheap Iranian music. Needless to say, Lord Patheticus is a virgin who at age twenty three (at the time of writing) still lives with his parents. Lord Patheticus has virtually zero capability to stand up for himself, although he dreams of someday taking over a small country in Africa to bind the population there to his will.
Lord Patheticus arrives at the mall. Instantly he is given many looks of disgust, and in return he holds his head in shame because he knows he is disgusting.
That part of Connecticut that is a suburban hellhole, a middle-class nightmare. It includes any place with easy access to Interstate 91, and/or Interstate 95 from New Haven south. Patheticut spawns upwardly-mobile yuppie scum who go north to Vermont for a second home or vacation, and then ruin that place as well. People from Patheticut act likecrabs in a basket - as soon as one gets near the top, another will grab its dangling lower exremity to pull itself up, thereby pulling the other down. The only way to get out is to crawl over someone else.
Every summer my wife drags me down to Patheticut to see the in-laws. All they talk about is money, shopping, commuting, and the country club. Chip and Buffy try to impress us with their fancy talk about yachting and golf. Ewww...Patheticut. Get me out of here!
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!
