Acronym, stands for "What in the World?"
What in the World is the most annoying package (for Canadian students) you'll ever have to complete (each package has approximately 30-40 pages), with at least 2 maps which you have to label (AND colour ;)), a ridiculous amount of work you have to finish online, and more assignments you have to waste your time completing. When teachers have no other work to keep you busy, they will assign you a WITW package, and if you're lucky, 2 of them! They're the most obvious waste of time ever, but hey! At least you know where the Thames River is located now!
Student 1: Ugh, we have so much homework! 3 reflections and a major project... I hope Ms. Teacher doesn't give us more.
Student 2: Yeah, and considering I need to catch up on the previous homework for this class, adding something else to the homework load would be absolutely detrimental!

Ms. Teacher: Class! As you all know, the winter break is approaching. Therefore, you will need something to keep you occupied during the break, which is why I will be assigning
Student 1: Don't say it.
Ms. Teacher: ...you all
Student 2: No
Ms. Teacher: Another WITW package!
Student 1: 🏃
Student 2: 🏃

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!
