Champ (or Champing)

There are essentially two meanings to doing the Champ (or Champing), as commonly understood in private professional services firms (bankers, consultants, lawyers, engineers, etc.).

1) To pump your chest, back your shoulders, lift your chin and look straight ahead with the confidence of a 10 even though you are a 7.5. Generally used by finance and law bros in bars/clubs to try to seduce their female counterparts. Best paired with a Patagucci, deal sleds and an invitation to dad's closed-circle retreat in Montauk. Works once in a while.

2) To argue as though one is absolutely right when being completely wrong and backed by no supporting evidence.
1) Dude! I was in the restroom at 1 0ak and when I got out of the toilet cabin, I looked at myself in the mirror, winked, I Champed myself up and walked out. That superb blonde saw me with my Champ on right when I got out of the restroom and the deal was closed! We skipped the closing dinner and went straight to dessert!

2) The person Champing: "Dude! Have you seen these fake news about climate change? The reason why there are less and less glaciers on earth is because they fall off the earth when they arrive at the end and then float in space! Other glaciers will show up from within our beautiful flat earth in due course!"
The other person: "Fuck buddy, you're doing the Champ (or Champing) again!"

cowboy camping

Sleeping outside in the backcountry without an overhead shelter (such as a tent or tarp), usually done in the context of backpacking. The decision to cowboy camp is a calculated one - bugs, rain, snow, etc. are all possible backfires to the decision and can damper the experience.

Note that having an adequate shelter is a must, cowboy camping is the decision to forgo setting up a dedicated shelter and betting that conditions will be such that the shelter is not needed (but the dedicated shelter is still present/available should it be needed). Not bringing adequate shelter with you into the backcountry is foolish and can result in injury or death.
Last night we went cowboy camping at Panther Gap and the stars were ridiculous.
