A vacation that is spent at one's home enjoying all that home and one's home environs have to offer.

Work should be pretty relaxed tomorrow with Bob away at that training. It should be a nice staycation!

A meme that expresses dismay or mockery of buzzwords and other portmanteaus, often created by the media or marketers, that make people groan. Staycation, being one of the most successful buzzwords, has become the poster child for all buzzwords.
P1: Hey Bob, check out my new Quadroid handset.
