the cities 

A term used by Minnesotans to refer to the general area of St.Paul, Minneapolis, and their surrounding areas because we are too lazy to be specific. It's origin is in the phrase "Twin Cities" which refers to the fact Minneapolis and St.Paul are so similar in size and closely located.

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!
