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."

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?!?!?!?!?!?!?!"

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."
