A word used by locals of Woodhaven, NY. The term is used to express two euphemistic meanings not normal to is regular definition.
1. The act of surfing the Internet for new pornography.
2. The act of conducting a form of self gratification while watching pornography.
The creation of the term comes from the need to use normal friendly words while discussing taboo subjects while in public.
The derivation of the term "shrimping" comes from the use of the word Prawn to mean Porn. Prawn, though it may have been used this way by many other people, its popularity had increased after the creation of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, in which the protagonist of the game had to visit a location known as Prawn Island. Incidentally, the number one business on Prawn Island was a Porn Studio. The use of the word Prawn to mean porn, comes from the Internet lingo colloquialism to misspell the word Porn by reversing the center letters and replacing the o with a zero. "Pr0n".

M: Dude, my girl has been on me about doing IT, but you know... sometimes I feel like I'd rather go shrimping. It's like she doesn't realize how much more effort I have to put into it while she just lays there.
D: Seriously dude? At least you have the option. All I do is shrimp. I shrimp in the morning I shrimp at night. I've even shrimped at school. Be thankful you have real shrimp.
M: You've shrimped at school dude? That's phucking hilarious!

shrimping is the position assumed during hangover.
It is derived from the characteristic fetal posture one likes to adopt when hung over, resembling a cocktail shrimp (Fenneropenaeus chinensis).
