It would appear that it was overtaken by indifference. Shame...

Parts 1 and 2 of that statement means no one will turn up.

Mid-week. Get over the middle of the week hump. (I think)

I had a hump night last night. Feel really refreshed today :D

AFAIK, hump means a bit of the old jiggajigga in most contexts. Equally, a casting couch is something an aspiring actress had to submit herself on were she to stand a chance of progressing. Radio 2--amongst the illiterate babble--has a "Hump Tuesday" and "The Casting Couch". Methinks there's someone behind all this with a devious sense of humour; at least he makes up for the wuckfit presenters who probably have no bleedin' clue about anything they're saying out loud. (There are numerous examples, but last week it was announced that there was a traffic accident in AD "between roads 30 and 13". How does anything happen between roads which run perpendicular to each other?) Not far off Sarah 'king Kennedy level.

That reminds me of a taxi I was in a few days ago, going around the one-way system at JLT. Every time the taxi driver went over a speed hump, he'd shake his head and say, "too much humping".

It's my mate Danny C who does all of that, the prank calls he's done that never saw the light of day could have gotten him into big trouble.
