Transmedicalism
The belief that one needs to have gender identity disorder/gender dysphoria to be transgender.
Also the belief that one has to meet society's expectations of appearance and behaviour of their preferred gender in order to be considered transgender.
Truscum people usually don't think that transgenderism/transsexualism (two terms that they consider to be strongly attached to one another) is normal human behaviour,but rather applies to a small minority of people who have an innate or acquired psychiatric disorder. They also typically think of anyone who claims they're trans without meeting those criteria as a "transtrender", ie. someone who claims to be trans for the sake of being seen as "different", "special" or "a rebel".

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!
