International Dibs Protocol 

The International Dibs Protocol (IDP) main goal is to prevent conflict between friends and family due to near-equal claims to an object of value. Nearly every conflict in history has been because two people want one thing.

Using the IDP, when 2 people want the same thing, who ever calls “dibs” first get it. If one person is not finished pronouncing the “s” sound before another starts pronouncing the “d” sound, it is considered a tie.

If a tie occurs, everyone who wanted that item must count aloud from 1 to 10. Even if 2 people called dibs, if a third person counts to ten first, the third person wins, even though the third person didn’t call dibs in the first place.

1. If two people arrive at ten at the same time, that is, one person says the “t” sound before the first person is finished the “n” sound, it is considered a tie. Only the people who tied are eligible for the next tiebreaker. A person that finished a whole “ten” behind the other 2 will not advance.

2. If the 2 people who tied in the last round are of legal drinking age, whoever bought the last round of alcoholic beverages in a store or bar wins.

3. If a tie still occurs, whoever is taller wins. If there is not third person to judge, or if height is a difference of 1 cm or less, then the next tiebreaker shall be implemented.

4. Rock-Paper-Scissors will be played, best 2 out of 3 to prevent winning by dumb luck.

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.
