Frankenstein

To construct or repair an object using a number of dubious methods. In the case of a computer, this usually involves concocting a machine made out of parts from a massive number of different manufacturers, ultimately creating a nightmarish amalgamation of electronic parts. The name comes from Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, and the titular monster of said book.

Dude, you totally frankensteined that old PC!

Frankenstein

A synonym for a joint pieced together out of old remnants of previous smokes found in your ashtray, the floor or anywhere else you can as they are usually smoked in more desperate times.

It doesn't always make for a pleasant taste.

It is a monster pieced together from older dead human body parts and brought back to life...

Couldn't reach my phone to call a dealer so i had to make a frankenstein instead.

Frankensteined

The haphazard amalgamating or "mashing up" of elements from multiple ideas, objects or projects into one single output, often due to lack of possibility to come up with something genuinely unique/new.

Usually refers to student projects, or a software platform, or even a production line. The act of building something that incorporates a very diverse range of elements from varied sources, somehow working together to create results.

Dude, no way I got an A on that! I frankensteined the entire paper off multiple sites and papers already on the internet.
