v. - the act of swapping something with another to sample what they have; combination of swap and sample = swample
(this word came about when i accidently typed "swample" for "sample" and my friend and i took it from there and i came up with a definition. i think that everyone should use this word! haha)
a few examples:

when having a meal with someone and they have something on their plate that looks good:
"mind if i swample some fries for an onion ring?"

the mutual sharing of something:
"dan and i swampled cds this weekend."

...and i'm sure anyone with their mind in the gutter could think of some other uses of "swample"...

Sample Zombies 

Sample Zombies are the mindless creatures that derive their primary sustenance from free food samples in stores. Generally, they are harmless to bystanders as their primary focus is the free food. But occasionally, when herded together, they can emit noxious gas and block aisle ways - causing disruption to folks who are actually there to shop.
A sense of horror rushed over me when I realized I was shopping in Costco at lunch time. Droves of sample zombies converged to feast on the free offerings, clogging the aisles as they devoured samples as fast as they came out of the toaster ovens. I raced for the safe zone where samples of salad were being dispensed. Much like vampires fear garlic, sample zombies avoid anything with fiber.

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!
