The lack of a need for religion due to one's own belief in themself. Said belief in oneself brings forth happiness and self-peace, but is seen as a bit strange to those not yet having embraced the idea. The word is variable in occordance with an individuals name, but takes its original form due the to the name of the original practitioner, in this case the lovely Kate.

katimavik 

Under the disguise of a Canada's Leading Youth Volunteer program, it's a science experiment gone awry, lasting nine months and consisting with the strangest group of 17-21 year olds imaginable. The "Katimaviktims" (clever, oh ho ho) live with 10 other strangers and volunteer 8 hours a day in three different parts of Canada. The program includes making 10 page protocalls to go pee, enduring weekly house meetings that are more painful than plucking out your own eye, turning vegitarian or learning to loathe vegitarians, creating screaming wrestling matches over lifted toilet seats, dishes, lint traps, or music, and still somehow managing to get an amazingly positive life-altering experience.

Just don't ever mention toilet seats.

Both a concept and a name, "Karisma" is that fiery ball of warmth in the room that everyone wishes to crowd around. She has a dope personality, and is one that all desire to meet and have an intellectual conversation with. The name, and the person, are both hard to forget; so it's not surprising that the person has a diverse multitude of friends.

A hybrid between the adjective "Karishma" --not to be confused with the noun, "karishma," defined by urban dictionary-- and the adjective "Charisma" (which describes Karisma pretty accurately), "Karisma" can be used as both a noun and an adjective for anything that is not typical or shallow.

It is also often said that "Karisma" can be derived from the Hindu god "Krishna," therefore making "Karisma" a female version of the god--a deity with innate superpowers, wisdom, and physical beauty!

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!
