"Ever since they put the new windmill in, the view from the veranda has just not been the same. I fear I'll have to cancel the wine tasting, lest the ladies come down with Wind Turbine Syndrome."
A rare disorder that occurs in horses. Their heads will spin in a circle and looks as if they are trying to keep their eyes focused on a single wind turbine propeller as it spins around and around.
The wind turbine at Key West High School that was named after Stephen Colbert. The naming was passed by unanimous vote from the Monroe County School Board after being proposed by Heindrek A., a senior at the school.
The turbine is part of the school's alternative energy program and is the southernmost turbine in the US. Both the turbine and the naming of the turbine have received national attention including a grant from HP, being covered on BusinessWeek.com, and other blogs, papers, etc. However, at this time, Stephen Colbert has not successfully been contacted about appearing at the 03/20/10 ribbon cutting ceremony.

Holy kaw! Maybe the Colbert eagle will perch atop the Colbert Wind Turbine and peer up at the space station which holds the C.O.L.B.E.R.T. treadmill!!?!
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!
