Ringalevio 

A NYC street game from the 1930s-1960s where two teams would be chosen, one called "Rabbits" the other "Foxes." The Rabbits run and hide while the Foxes count to 100. After counting, the Foxes head out to search for Rabbits and capture them by holding on to them, saying "Ringalevio 1-2-3, 1-2-3, 1-2-3!" They are then placed in a common area called the Jail. When all the Rabbits are captured and in Jail, the first round of the game ends. The teams then switch names and repeat in round two. A free Rabbit can sneak up upon the Jail and, by smacking the wall at the Jail, can free ALL of the captured Rabbits. To prevent this, the Foxes always kept a "Jailer" at the Jail to capture any sneaky Rabbit trying for a Jailbreak. This game could take 4-5 hours to complete, depending upon the number of players.

A version of Hide & Seek combined with Tag.

Ringling College of Art and Design 

An art college located in Sarasota, FL. They offer the highest quality art and design education and degree. Other majors include "Business of Art and Design", "Digital Film" and "Motion Design" (but noone knows wtf that is). Student population is approximately 75% self-proclaimed artist stereotypes 15% asians who are waaay too talented 10% rich kids who thought they were going to have it easy studying art with Mom and Dads money (but then get upset when they realize they get nailed from studio classes) 80% genuine young artist who want to get a degree in something they love 5% Guys who wear very tight pants

Other than that, everyone is up to their nose in debt and the students deal with mood swings and laugh attacks due to excessive sleep depravation. Every teacher believes his/her class is a priority. Everyone knows everyone. And you NEVER walk down MLK alone.

It one of the top 5 art colleges in the nation and world-wide.
I go to Ringling College of Art and Design and never sleep more than 4 hours a day.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
