Pulling an evan 

When you have an object or some sort of item that is very special to you and holds not only real-world value, but special value to you (like a rare trading card, etc.) And a friend or somebody you know purchases the item you have only because they don't want people to praise you for having that thing, essentially trying to 1-up the other person. This is different from purchasing something once because what the other person has looks and seems cool to you.

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!
