Hebephilia 

Hebephilia refers to an adult's sexual preference for pubescent youths; the term was introduced by Glueck (1955).1 It differs from ephebophilia, which refers to the erotic interest in individuals in mid- to late adolescence,2 and from pedophilia, which refers to the erotic interest in prepubescent children.3 While individuals with a sexual preference for adults (i.e., teleiophiles) may have some sexual interest in pubescent-aged individuals,4 the term hebephilia is reserved for those who prefer pubescent-aged individuals over adults.
Sally is a pubescent child.
Tom likes Sally because she is a pubescent 10 year old girl.
He likes Pubscent girls.
That makes him a Hebephile.

tabophilia 

Not to be confused with taphophilia, tabophilia is a condition in which an Internet user becomes obsessed with browser tabs. A tabophile may have 10+ tabs open at any one time with the conviction that they may have the need to save those tabs for later. Another symptom is saving tabs at the end of each browsing session and letting them carry over to the next session. This allows the number of tabs to accumulate quite quickly. Sufferers of this condition are usually net addicts.
-"Why do you have 93 tabs open?"
-"Shut up, I might need all those!"
-"Holy crap, you have tabophilia, don't you?!"
-"Yeah, sorry I meant to tell you."

doorwall 

A door wall is a sliding-glass door or patio door. The term is yet another example of banal Michigan vernacular, where in the residents latch on to company names, trademark names, marketing terms and product names from local companies. The terms become embedded in the local vocabulary and eventually become accepted as actual valid words and phrases. In this case the term comes from Wallside Windows in Taylor, MI (a large window manufacturer), where 'door wall' is their created word for sliding-glass door.
