SSD Drive

A misnomer for an SSD. 'SSD' stands for solid state drive, so calling it an 'SSD Drive' would be calling it a 'solid state drive drive'.
Adam: "Yo i just installed an SSD drive in my PC! It's so fast!"
Mark: "... you mean an SSD?"
Adam: "Yeah, the new SSD drive thingy, it makes it go so much faster!"
Mark: "The D in SSD already stands for 'drive', so why are you adding an extra 'drive' to the end? So you're installing a solid state drive drive to your PC?"
Adam: "uhm, i don't know. i just thought that was what it was called, just like an HDD drive."
Mark: "... HARD DISK DRIVE.... DRIVE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!"

Gentle Giant

A masculine, incredibly strong and powerful-looking tall man who has a peaceful and non-confrontational personality. On first appearance you would think he'd beat the shit out of you, but in reality he wouldn't hurt a fly.
Alex: "Holy shit look at that guy! He's so fuckin big and scary, I wouldn't want to mess with him. He probably makes everyone around him his bitch."
Mickey: "I've met him, he's actually an incredibly nice and friendly dude. He's a gentle giant. I've seen him watering flowers and quietly nurturing them as well. He looks super fuckin tough but he has the heart and soul of a Disney Princess."

Simp

Simps (short for 'sucka idiolizing mediocre pussy', or for female simps, 'sucka idiolizing mediocre penis') are people that devote an unhealthy amount of attention to a potential mate in hopes of validation or rewards from said person, rather than being themselves and accepting rejection if the other person is not interested. Simps will do anything for any potential mate to gain their approval, even if the person does not reciprocate. This is unfortunately the case for many simps; their potential mates usually take no interest in the simp, and if they do, it is only because the simp rewards them for simply existing.

Contrary to popular belief, the act of simping is not associated with being attracted to a mate, taking interest in and attempting to date a mate, or being friendly to a potential mate.
How it's properly used:
Jaden: "I've given her all my money, I text her every single night even though she leaves me on read, I massage her feet constantly, and she still doesn't want to date me yet! Maybe I should keep picking up her food for her, maybe then she'll decide to get with me."
Mason: "Are you sure this girl is even interested in you in the first place? I think you're being a bit of a simp, you need to just be yourself and find a girl that loves you for who you are."

How it's improperly used:
Jack: "That girl is cute. Maybe I should ask her out. No big deal if she says no, it's just worth a shot."
Joe: "You're such a simp."
Jack: "Okay, so even though the purpose of our species is to procreate and find a mate, I am a simp for pursuing that. Correct?"
Joe: "Yah."
Jack: "Okay.. cool. Guess I will never ever talk to another female as long as I live, despite the fact that our purpose is to procreate. Gotcha. Sounds like a plan. Noted. Will do."

Sentinel

A new, upstanding and official name for self-proclaimed proud campers in Call of Duty. 'Sentinels' differ from regular ol' nooby campers who do it because they don't really know how to play the game; sentinels purposely camp because they are trying to play the game "tactically" and "realistically", even though Call of Duty is an arcade shooter.

Sentinels are almost always highly casual console players (mostly military nerds) who have no interest in playing the game competitively; they are the type of player that is more suited to playing Arma or Insurgency, but instead plays Call of Duty, since they don't own a PC for Arma, and don't know about Insurgency, since it's simply an obscure indie game in the face of Call of Duty's massive marketing and influence, especially in the console market.
"The sentinel was sitting in a building and camping with a silenced sniper rifle. They think they are being tactical and realistic. Everyone around them thinks they're a complete douche."

Sweat

A subcategory of 'tryhard' in video games, characterized by:
1. Inhuman reaction times
2. Incredibly fast movement

Most people categorize 'tryhards' as 'sweats', but it's a very different term; 'tryhard' simply means that someone is so keen to win something at all costs, even at the expense of fun, but this does not necessarily mean they have great reaction times or incredibly fast movement. A 'sweat' is always a 'tryhard', but a 'tryhard' might not necessarily be a 'sweat'.

Sweats are most commonly seen in super fast-paced twitch shooter games with a super fast time-to-kill and lightning fast movement speed; these include games like COD, Quake, CSGO, Splitgate, Apex Legends, Fortnite, and the newer Halo games with sprinting.

Sweats are known to be incredibly frustrating to play against, because it almost seems impossible to defeat them, as their skills do not necessarily revolve around critical thinking, muscle memory with aim, or complex strategy, but rather pure biological reaction time, which often cannot be trained, and is genetic/related to age. An old man can train critical thinking and strategy skills, but it is literally biologically impossible for them to train and compete with someone with higher reaction times and reflexes.

Sweats are often associated with the energy drink G-Fuel (which contains large amounts of caffeine, known to boost reaction time and alertness), the stimulant crack cocaine, as well as many other amphetamines, like Adderall.
Joe: gets killed by a player that flew around a corner and killed him quicker than he could react
Joe: "Jesus, that dude is such a sweat. He probably snorted an entire tub of G-Fuel before he hopped on the game today."
