Buellering

Inspired by popular film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", "Buellering" is an experimental form of regression therapy where an individual takes a break from regular adult responsibilities to spend a period of time engrossed in a nostalgic combination of film / art / food enjoyed in childhood in order to reconnect with the inner child, ground oneself and elicit positive emotions.

Buellering is yet to be officially recognised as a legitimate therapy technique.
Hey have you heard of "buellering"? My therapist recommended it to me.

Oh man, I've been buellering on and off since last year. Love it.

Buellering

/ˈbʊl.rɪŋ/ Reffering to the "Ferris Bueller's day off" movie.

The act of effortlessly main charactering every situation while achieving a constant state of flow as if you are being served by the universe. Being so smooth and graceful that it makes NPCs and agents Smith flock towards you to antagonize you. Being the Rickiest rick of em all, The big Lebowsky, God's sinful profet, the Golden boy.
How did you drink, party and chase pussy all year and still manage to pass exams?

Buildering 

"Rock climbing" or "bouldering" on buildings.
Usually done with no rope, perhaps a crash pad and climbing shoes. Bridge supports, retaining walls, strangely shaped buildings and modern art (where there are no security guards) are popular buildering spots.
When rock climbers are stuck in a city with no rock to be found they go buildering.
