This looks like an error to me. "Camp" can be a noun or verb but this case it seems like someone is attempting to use it as an adverb, which is foreign in my experience, but it could be some kind of regional slang.
Um do people still say "camp"???
To CharlesBB - best wishes - English is a roughie to learn - I thank the fates for giving me English as my natal language.

I think I've heard it mentioned once or twice in my life, but it's a term not commonly used around where I live.
Praxius.... the word brings back tapping toes and snapping fingers.... is that "camp"????
I mean other than the obvious being imprisoned during summer months in one of those terrible girl only or boy only places where people get rid of the kid for a few weeks haha....

I've always heard it in reference to campy movies. It may be a gay term but there are very few gays in this neck of the woods, so I haven't heard it used that way.
My dictionary defines "CAMP" (adj.) as 'theatrical, exaggerated', 'effiminate', 'homosexual'.
Also, (dating myself) I remenber that the late actor Victor Mature was defined as 'camp'. Contemporary equivalent would be Sylvester Stallone or George Clooney: so BAD, it's good.

charlesbb, compared to me and the way I had to learn English, you are one lucky dude.
When I arrived in Canada all by myself as a seventeen-year-old kid, there was no internet. There were no classes for the lame-brained, politically correct idea of English as Second language.
Learn on your own! Learn with common sense. Buy a dictionary and learn how to use it. Unless you want to become a life-long slave of the Liberal Party.

And then you, too, can have masturbatory dreams of moving to the US, wishing you had moved there, slavishly drooling over unsuccessful candidates for the Vice Presidency.
TenPenny and cliffy,
Masturbation only exits in the mind of some pathetic little human wanna-be, who doesn't get (and maybe never did) get enough at home.
And his similarly cursed soul-mate who blindly and typically unthinkingly says BINGO.
Please explain to charlesbb why you had to drag this thread to your level in the sewer.

Your charitable intentions warm my unfeeling, cruel and insensitive heart.
Please use your money and efforts in something you probably NEVER experienced before: give your money to the Salvation Army and your time to Habitat for Humanity.
And a little bit of civility on your part might go a long way.
