Swishful Thinking
When all you can think of is making 3 pointers, or making a basket that is a swish. This is common for poor shooters, who dream of swishes all day, and then celebrate when they finally make one, after multiple misses. This is called Swishful Thinking, as they continue to shoot and shoot, knowing they will finally make one.
Damn, did you see Keith hit that huge 3 after he missed like 6 shots in a row. Yeah dude, he is the king of Swishful Thinking.

Clitful Thinking
A pun on "wishful thinking," it's when a woman lets her own sexual interest in someone strongly color her judgement regarding the person's reciprocal interest in her. It makes her interpret every gesture from her object of interest as a come on, even when it clearly isn't. This is known as dickful thinking if it's a man.
Her: "So my one night stand from 3 weeks ago hasn't called me, even though I gave him my number and my email. He didn't give me his real name or contact info, but he mentioned he was a professor, so I looked through the online faculty profiles of every university in 100 miles, and found his picture. I think he'd like to see me again but just lost my contact info. Should I email him at the work address I found on the faculty website, or just show up and surprise him after one of his classes? I think he'd like being surprised like that."
Friend: "No he wouldn't. That's a bunch of clitful thinking there - let it go."
Her: "Suzy hugged me last week, so she's definitely into me. Her husband isn't at the party, so I think I should try and make out with her."
Friend: "That's clitful thinking. She's not hitting on you."

I think I might have left the blender turned on
1: The most hilarious line ever spoken in King of the Hill. Hank Hill said this in Episode 10 of Season 1. Why was it so great? Well first, can you picture Hank Hill using a blender? Second, a blender is not something you can just leave on, because it's only on when you hold down the button.
2: A bizarre excuse to step outside for a cigarette when you don't want people to know you smoke.

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.
