struggle bandit 

Typically black men who are career criminals, committing crimes such as burglary, assault, robbery, etc. They are repeat offenders and spend most of their adult life in prison. They use having a criminal record as an excuse to not work or take care of their children. They are delusional in the belief that they only get arrested for crimes they commit due to systemic racism. They don't comply with police and sometimes the outcome is deadly. They are lazy, shiftless, entitled and feel like the whole world owes them something because their ancestors were slaves. They are sociopaths who believe that they are incapable of doing anything wrong and that their failures in life are a result of racism. They don't take any accountability for their actions. They see how fatherlessness in the home destroys the lives of black children and they couldn't give a flying f*** about it. They are selfish, malignant narcissists who don't care about the well-being of the women and children in their communities. They don't value their women and either exploit, abuse them or take them for granted. They tend to abandon their children because they themselves did not have fathers growing up and sadistically would like to see their children suffer the same fate they have.

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!
