Get the Larping mug.Traditionally, LARPing is when a bunch of nerds get together in a field or pasture and beat each other up with foam core swords. In the internet sense, it refers to people who put on a façade and lie about having lives that are far more interesting than they really are.

Get the Laraing mug.A school in Michigan with 1000+ teens who don’t know how to act. The school is very divided and you’re either solo or in a huge group of friends that eventually will break off. The staff is nice with a few exceptions but like every other school the teachers have favorites, and fall out of love with their job and it shows. Party’s always kinda suck because no one knows how to have fun anymore. The girls there are pretty and kind (on the outside) but also will stab you in the back, a lot of them are insecure and sad but they hide it with trying to overachieve at everything. The guys there like to get with every girl before they “settle down” and don’t know how to make up their minds about anything + they’re mediocre looking. I hope everyone at ELHS can get their heads out of their asses and be a little nicer. It’s not that hard. We do pretty good at sports though.

Get the East Lansing High School mug.Larping (or LARPing) is short for "Live Action Role-Playing". A live action role-playing game is a form of role-playing game where the participants physically act out their characters' actions. The players pursue their characters' goals within a fictional setting represented by the real world, while interacting with one another in character. The outcome of player actions may be mediated by game rules, or determined by consensus between players.
The first LARPs were run in the late 1970s, inspired by role-playing games and genre fiction. The activity gained international popularity during the 1980s, and has diversified into wide variety of styles. Play may be very game-like, or may be more concerned with dramatic or artistic expression. The fictional genres used vary greatly, from realistic modern or historical settings to fantastic or futuristic eras. Production values are sometimes minimal, but can involve elaborate venues and costumes. LARPs range in size from small private events lasting a few hours to huge public events with thousands of players lasting for several days.
