In Venice, Italy, the current price for a short Gondola ride -STARTS-FROM- 65 euros; that's pure tourerism!

I was tourerised into paying £5.60p for a 3lb 10oz frozen chicken from the only shop within 30 miles in any direction.

Alex Turnerism

Being completely, utterly obsessed with Alex Turner, lead singer of Arctic Monkeys. Symptoms may very, but often include: stalking pictures of Alex Turner, daydreaming about Alex Turner, and constantly talking about Alex Turner.

I know. I have a serious case of Alex Turnerism.

Wooh Girl Tourism

That moment when a gaggle of straight (esp. drunk and or loud) women, usually bachelorettes, descend on a gay bar and create an unfortunate spectacle of themselves. Also, Whoo Girl Tourism.

I was just hanging out with my buddies playing Mario Kart when a party bus filled with a big group of drunk girls in tiaras came in drunk, loud, and belligerent. Eventually we just had to go and find a safe space away from their Wooh Girl Tourism.

Party Tourism

Travel on the cheap.Party tourists travel whenever possible, and take great pride in exploring and experiencing areas off the beaten path with little more than a wallet and beer in hand. Immersion with the local populace is key. Breaking bread with our bretheren and then heading to the local discoteque is a classic expericence shared by many party tourists. Party Tourists abided by the 30% rule...30% of the time you must be drinking. The official beer of Party Tourism is Hite Prime

Hey Austin...Party Tourism..Tokyo..be there!

Topherism

Anything that is poetic in nature dealing specifically with the weather

Girl, that was a sweet topherism you had last night while describing those cumulo-nimbus clouds.

Students please find the symbolism in this topherism.

sex tourism

Travelling long distances for the sole purpose of seeking and exploiting easy sex, usually to destinations like Bangkok, Thailand or Portland, Oregon where the locals are more attractive and easier to fuck than wherever you came from.

"Uli can't find any prostitutes around the fetid vulture nest he lives in, so when he wants to fuck strangers he takes vacations to places that have a thriving sex tourism industry, like Portland."
