Method Karaokeing

When one sings karaoke and acts like the person who sings the original version of the song

Guy 1: "Dude, you wanna do karaoke tonight?"
Guy 2: "Sure. But not if you're gonna sing 'I Can't Get No Satisfaction' and dance around or sing 'Wonderwall' while leaning into the mic with your hands behind your back! I hate Method Karaokeing!"
Guy 1: "How about I sing 'Won't Get Fooled Again' and I swing the mic lead around?"

Method Acting

When an actor or actress decides to commit fully to their role by becoming the character on and off set.

(This can either lead to great success like in the case of Christian Bale in American Psycho or in annoying or dragging down everyone on a movie set like in the case of every Jared Leto role.)

Jared Leto decided method acting was the best way to play the role of Michael Morbius by using crutches he didn’t need and refusing to use the bathroom without help from people who came to film a movie, and now had to help a D-List actor wipe his own ass.

method writer

1.A writer or author who uses a technique of writing in which he/she identifies emotionally with a character in the story and assumes that character's persona in the telling. Novels and stories exhibiting this style are almost always first person. This writing style allows insights into a character's motives, reactions and thoughts that usually can only be inferred from other styles. Author's using this technique may describe the sensation of writing as if they were spiritually channeling the character.

Examples of method writers:
Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn - Mark Twain
The Catcher in the Rye - J. D. Salinger
To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee
A View from a Height - J. E. Murphy
Rebecca - Daphne du Maurier
Moby Dick - Herman Melville
