Stoppage by OwO_Whats_This?? April 7, 2020

stoppage time 

Additional time added to the end of a soccer (football) game. Since soccer has a constantly running clock that stops for nothing, alot of "playing time" is wasted away for any these reasons: injuries, a goal scored and the celebration that follows, arguing with officials, substitutuons, red and yellow cards, and taking forever on throw-ins, free kicks, corner kicks and goal kicks. (as well as a few other posibilities)

This added time ia supposed to make up for some of that wasted time.

Stoppage time can be anywhere from 1 minute to 5 minutes long, but is not exact. It always just seems like the referee can stop the game randomy, and know one but him knows when the game will be final.
Person 1: I wish that soccer had a clock that actually stops when a problem arrises or nothing is going on.
Person 2: Yeah, that whole stoppage time thing doesn't make a lot of sense.

Stoppage Time

Mrs. Bledsoe timed the excess noise after the saxophone section stopped playing, and added it on to the end of rehearsal as stoppage time.

The Stoppage Time Shivers 

The feeling of sudden nervousness while watching a soccer/football match and the clock hits 90 minutes. You feel this type of way because your team either needs to score a goal or needs to keep one out. This happens in the stoppage time added to the end of the game. This is quite possibly the most stressed a human can possibly be.
Parker: You okay? You're shaking.
Aidan: No. We're losing to West Brom and we need a goal.
Parker: Ah, you have the stoppage time shivers

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!
