Is there a word for getting excited about absolutely nothing? For example, if you can recall in the Christmas movie ELF, Buddy got all excited about wondering what a Christmas gram was. In reality, though, it isn't all that exciting. Is there a word for that?

Any suggestions are welcome!

    Oops! I provided an answer, but then discovered this was a duplicate of something else—where my own answer, and alternate suggestions, already exist: tempest in a teapot, make a mountain out of a molehill, and much ado about nothing. (To be fair, I deleted my answer after marking the duplicate.) I can think of no single word for this. – Jason Bassford Jul 09 '20 at 00:08
