Architurnt: The act of turning up as an Architecture major. Instead of plastic handles, 30 racks, drunk sorority girls, and bad decisions, Architecture majors turn up in a different fashion. We tend to stay up longer, drink to much drugs (Caffeine), have raves in the studio while listening to contemporary jazz, and wake up with a hangover of pride. Getting turnt in the studio takes on a different meaning here than it does in a rap song.
"wow, my roomate got so architurnt last night she came home at 5 am with x-acto cuts and woke up with a hot glue gun stuck to her butt"

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
