Phony Ericsson Walkman 

The plastic 'back casing' of a legit Sony Ericsson Walkman that holds the battery in.

Using the arrow sticker on the inside of the casing it could be used as a Squaid-o-meter to detect the presence of Squaids. It could also be used to detect people who were 'going sick'.
"I've found the source of Squaids!"

"How?"

"Using my Phony Ericsson Walkman, this specimen was going sick and had high levels on the squaid-o-meter!"

Phony Navy SEAL 

An idiot who pretends to be a Navy SEAL, but never was one. Some phony SEALs do it to impress chicks at a bar, and others do it because they want everyone in their life to believe that they were a Navy SEAL.

Usually, the type of person who does this had a less than glorious job in the Military. Many haven't even served in the Military at all.

Real SEALs are humble about their jobs, and do go around bragging about being one. Phony SEALs are the opposite. They can't wait to tell someone that they're a Navy SEAL, and will go on with endless bullshit stories about it. They like the "ooo and aaahh" reactions that people give them. They want to intimidate people and get respect. All because they're not winners, and never did anything notable in real life to earn any respect in the first place.
"Hi, my name's John Smith, I'm a Navy SEAL and I've done a lot of ""black ops"" in foreign countries and killed a ton of people!"

"What class were you?"

"My what?"

"Your BUD/S Class....?"

"20 Bravo Delta 1"

"You fucking idiot, you're a Phony Navy SEAL! Now I'm going to smash your face in!!"

Holden Caulfield's favorite insult, an old way of saying poser.
"What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff- I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I'd do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be. I know it's crazy."

-Holden Caulfield.

Here he expresses how he'd like to stop people from beocming phony as they grow up.

Anyone who takes the effort to look or act differently than they normally would to impress others. Usually very embarrassing to watch, though entertaining if it is someone you don't like. Almost always obvious.
1. You ought to go to a boy's school sometimes. Try it sometime. It's full of phonies, and all you do is study so that you can learn enough to be smart enough to be able to buy a goddam Cadillac some day, and you have to keep making believe you give a damn if the football team loses, and all you do is talk about girls and liquor and sex all day, and everybody sticks together in these dirty little goddam cliques. The guys that are on the basketball team stick together, the goddam intellectuals stick together, the guys that play bridge stick together. Even the guys that belong to the goddam Book-of-the-Month Club stick together.

2. "Fuck. I fucking hate them fucking shitty ass phonies. Fuck them all."
"Shut up, phony."

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!
