Halping is non-helpful helping. Derived from a childlike mispronounciation of "helping", halping can be committed by people of all ages, and refers originally to the cheerful non-help provided by children attempting ordinary chores or tasks for the first time.

Halping has since been expanded to refer to any behavior performed with the intention of aiding someone but which instead results in more work or a negative emotional response, often cheerfully not realizing that they are not helping.
"You know, like when your three year old is “halping” you make dinner and it just means that you have to do twice as much work and then give them a bath? Like that. Only less cute."

flophouse 

Any house/apartment/frat house/trailer/etc. which is used for individuals to crash (sleep, chill, hang out, lurk, etc.) for a period of time. In order to "crash", one must not actually live there (e.g. have their name on the lease, own said flophouse, etc.). Flophouses are typically used by college students, drug addicts, transients, vagrants, or other unsavory characters.

A flophouse may also be the home owned by the parents of a college student, who after being away at college, wishes to live as if he/she is still at college (e.g. staying out all night, returning just to crash at mom and dad's house, then leaving again), rather than conforming to the pre-college rules.
Example #1
Dude: (Talking to someone passed out face first on the floor of his college apartment) Hey man, who the hell are you? What do you think this is, a flophouse??

Bro: Sorry dude, I must have passed out for a minute.

Example #2
Mom: Where have you BEEN for the last three days? You come home just to sleep?? What do you think this is, a flophouse??!!

Son: What's your problem? I'm an adult now!
