Tinder celebrity 

A tinder user who is famed and known to every male/female out for notoriously pursuing as many profiles as possible; simultaneously. They are often found to be deleting and reinstalling their profile in hopes of matching former left swipers. They blindly and furiously swipe right to every profile in a 160km radius, thus eventually gaining publicity amongst all tinder users and gaining tinder celebrity status.

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!
