Verb: Combination of Camping, while being at Home.
This is done primarily for fun and fresh air, while enjoying the modern facilities close at hand. If it rains too hard or gets too cold, the front door is close at hand. If a bear thinks your campsite looks tasty, simply step inside and watch him eat your food from a safe viewpoint. Other perks may include the usability of all your blankets and pillows from your bed without having to tote them far. Last but not least, the hamper can make love so close to the bedroom, but outside, under the stars and moon. It's a lovin' experience. Hamping: everyone should try it.

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."

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

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!
