(v.) Walking unnaturally, with the right arm swinging forward simultaneously as the right leg bears weight, repeating with the left arm and leg and so on. This normally occurs during stressful moments when someone is nervous and asked to walk in front of an audience of their peers. The individual will overthink the task and lerp.

Form of the verb "Lerp". If you lerp, you are a LER. A LER is a female that looks like a male. She farts quite often and picks her nose in public. She has no desire for any sexual activity. She has never kissed anyone, except for perhaps a doll. People run away when the see a LER and are usually quite afraid of a LER. She is fat and ugly and has no friends.

When someone is pretending to be something they’re not. Can involve lying on social media/internet or lying in real life. Often used in a derogatory sense.

Derived from the original meaning of LARP, Live Action Role Play. When you say that someone is larping and you’re not talking about the literal game, you are saying that they are role-playing in their actual real life. Pretending to be rich, pretending to know about a topic, pretending to have a certain lifestyle, etc.

Traditionally, LARPing is when a bunch of nerds get together in a field or pasture and beat each other up with foam core swords. In the internet sense, it refers to people who put on a façade and lie about having lives that are far more interesting than they really are.

Larping (or LARPing) is short for "Live Action Role-Playing". A live action role-playing game is a form of role-playing game where the participants physically act out their characters' actions. The players pursue their characters' goals within a fictional setting represented by the real world, while interacting with one another in character. The outcome of player actions may be mediated by game rules, or determined by consensus between players.

The first LARPs were run in the late 1970s, inspired by role-playing games and genre fiction. The activity gained international popularity during the 1980s, and has diversified into wide variety of styles. Play may be very game-like, or may be more concerned with dramatic or artistic expression. The fictional genres used vary greatly, from realistic modern or historical settings to fantastic or futuristic eras. Production values are sometimes minimal, but can involve elaborate venues and costumes. LARPs range in size from small private events lasting a few hours to huge public events with thousands of players lasting for several days.
