Zorked
Created by the 3 guys behind the Mostly Walking show, Sean Plott, Bill Graner and Sean Bouchard whilst/after playing an adventure game called Return to Zork.
The game, as some other games from that era, is infamous for one thing, it's easy to become unable to further progress in the game, due to your actions, without realizing it much later/at all.
Example: On the first screen, you have to obtain a plant. There are many ways to do so, but only one is the right one, and any other choice will lead you to a fail state, therefore being unable to complete the game, WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING IT, until you get to the part where you need to use the plant.
Other example: further in the game, you have to cross the river, by summoning the ferryman. And he won't let you ride for free, of course. You need a special coin. The thing is, you just have to SHOW it to the ferryman and he will still take you to the other side, instead of giving it to him. If you give it to him, you are still able to explore the other side of the river, but by the time you want to cross the river and return to the first area, only then will you realize your mistake. You no longer have the coin, so he won't take you back.
Therefore, adopted from the game's name "Return to Zork", comes the term (being) "zorked". It basically means "screwed".

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!
