As Defined by John Schmor, PhD: Camp is Failed Seriousness. To the extremes on both sides usually defines certain aspects of camp. It is not ONLY in relation to Gay Sensibilities, but it plays a heavy part in what camp is recognized as. Mind you, not only Gays can create camp nor are they the only ones who recognize it, it is merely an easy way for Gay sensibilites to be defined because we must hide ourselves from society to the length that we can only bring out those innermost feelings in a "campy" scenario.
Camp is cross dressing in a Freudian slip. Camp is Laughing at The Importance of Being Earnest and not knowing why. Camp is laughing at the Importance of Being Earnest and knowing why.

A strategy in First person shooters where the player sits idly by hoping and unsuspecting enemy will maybe walk in front of them. As red vs Blue said it, camping is not a legitimate strategy. Many campers would defend camping as the most tactically sound and intelligent strategy, when in reality they just dont have the reflexes or hand eye coordination to play the game normally. Also known as a strategy for 5 year olds and pussies who are afraid to die in a video game so they sit in the corner
1:damn that guy camping in the corner just killed me
2: he killed me too hes been sitting there all game what a camping fag he probably uses the heartbeat sensor and commando too
1: my 50 year old mother could get that score camping like him and shes never played before
