A term that refers to both the attempt to "hoard" more screen time (that can be obtained) from parents and the panic buying that occurred on Friday, March 13th, 2020, right before the COVID-19 lockdown. This term highlighting a sense of urgency and accumulation in both contexts.
Kids trying to negotiate extra screen time are just hoarding it like people did with toilet paper during the pandemic!

Get the Bottle Hoardsmug. A large pile of loose change, typically sitting in the very cupholder of your car, or the ludicrous amount of change people bring into stores without letting the few neurons they have fire off to go to the bank first.

Get the Dragon hoardmug. Refers to the overall habit of reluctantly keeping multiple internet-browsing tabs open at the same time, for a long duration of time. Often this is done as a way to temporarily save & set aside the tabs for later use. This is because the individual intended to permanently close it after they were done using it.
Note: The individual in question (called a "tab-hoarder"), does not necessarily have to have all the different tabs opened in the same window, at the same time, to be considered "tab-hoarding".
It should also be noted that there is no scientifically agreed-upon consensus on the minimum number of tabs & time duration required for one to identify as "tab-hoarding". However, what is clear is the fact that "tab-hoarding" is a very normal behavior, especially in environments requiring people to regularly use the internet for multiple purposes.

Get the Hoardmug. Keeping patients coming back for as long as you can, for the rest of their lives if at all possible. The goal is to keep a steady stream of patients coming in, by keeping as many patients on your list as possible, so as to maximize your weekly income. You don't want to completely cure them, or they might decide they don't need you anymore. You just need to make them feel like they're making progress, slowly but surely.
Psychiatrists and therapists are especially notorious for this. They will often make you feel that your condition is incurable, although treatable. Of course, some people, including those with chemical imbalances, may need a lifelong course of treatment. But some others, who may just be going through a difficult time in their lives, may not.
Some doctors do want to see their patients get cured and move on, if possible. But some (the patient hoarders) want to keep as many patients coming back as possible, for as long as possible.

As long as this doctor continues her practice of patient hoarding, you will have to make appointments well in advance because she will be booked solid for weeks, or even months, at a time.

Get the patient hoardingmug. The habit of storing things at other’s homes or properties, typically because one is running out of space, under the guise of a long-term loan, with the idea that it will be available when needed without having to store at one’s own home or property.
Nathan knew that Shawn and his girlfriend wanted to start kayaking, so he offered to lend Shawn his two kayaks and let him keep them at his property under the guide of a long term loan, but as remote hoarding, Nathan’s can come get them whenever he needs to.
