Storage porn 

The guilty pleasure of showing off an over-abundance of closets, cabinets and drawers to a friend who struggles to find room in a smaller living space.
Showing Lisa our new house with his-and-hers closets, hollow window seats and cabinets around the washer and dryer was equivalent to storage porn.

Storage Hunters 

A reality TV show starring stand-up comedian Shaun Kelly, in which "abandoned" storage lockers are auctioned off to the highest bidder, with the bidders usually staying the same throughout the series. It achieved particular popularity in the UK on the TV channel Dave, on which a domestic version eventually aired.
"I can't understand a word of what Shaun Kelly actually says on Storage Hunters. It's all just RRRABADARRRRABADA to me."

storage warred 

A semi fraudulent method of selling goods (usually for trading cards but can apply to the equivalent). The seller will state that items are raw and ungraded/unsearched but in reality, they have been searched but the seller 'plants' better quality items in what is purchased in the hopes that the buyer will be exultant regarding the find. (Similar to Storage Wars tactics).
Person 1: I got 1000 trading cards for twenty dollars! I even found a three dollar rookie card in the mix!!!

Person 2: Twenty dollars for 999 commons and one 3 dollar card? You were Storage Warred

Person 2: Too bad, I hate having to throw socks away.

Person 1: No, No, I didn't throw them away, I just threw some stuff in them and used them as storage socks.

Person 2: Oh.
