Tactical Like

While browsing through cuties' profiles on social media sites, one then carefully selects a picture to "Like" in an effort to send a subtle message in the form of a notification to said cutie. Typically done by a male towards a female due to their exponentially greater sex drive. The specific target picture depends on the person who is "Liking" the picture as well as the person who is in the picture. There is much strategy that goes into the decision process which includes but is not limited to: How long ago the picture was posted, what time of the day the picture is "Liked", and the amount of clothing/sexuality in the picture.

Tactical text

A text message that is sent- usually as quickly as possible- in a situation when one should not be texting or at an otherwise inconvenient or risky time; hence the need for the text to be sent in a tactical manner. For example, during school when phones are not allowed, during a movie at the theater or when playing a video game that cannot be paused (like an online game).
