ex. 1. John was able to rise to the occasion and make the conference a success. It was a big challenge, but he rose to the occasion.

ex. 2. t's not easy to play your first match in front of a crowd that size but he certainly rose to the occasion.

ex. 3. When a crisis hits, will you rise to the occasion? She needed some help, so I rose to the occasion and volunteered my services.

occasional boyfriend

That guy you occasionally do ordinary couple things with but turn it into a full blown sexcapade. It is a level above friends with benefits, is a little more involved, but still requires some of the basic rules of engagement, such as not over sharing personal information that would lead to emotional attachment.

Gift giving, remembering certain dates and holidays not required.
I went to go eat dinner with Jack last night where he then fingered me under the table. I gave him a blow job at the movie theater. At my place we screwed like animals before retreating into cuddling position for the night. I'll be going half way across the globe tomorrow, but that's okay. He's my occasional boyfriend, not a real one.

very occasionally

Is a paradox that you can use to confuse people of the frequency at which anything can happen.
For example: “That girl down there is a single mother who smokes weed very occasionally”.

occasional smoker

a person who smokes cannabis from time to time, usually spanning from 2 weeks to a month or more. They are not to be confused with "pot heads" who smoke alot more. Occasional smokers usually have no problems remembering that many things, but can be forgetful sometimes, they are usually laid back and easy to talk to, you'd never know they smoke pot! They also seem to function well and take care of responsibilities and pot is not always on the top of their to-do list.
ex. Whoa! I didn't even know you smoked man! Your like all succesfull and stuff! Your definitley an Occasional Smoker man!

Asian Occasion

When a non-Asian person's eyes look Asian in a photo because of how they're smiling.
Don't use that picture for the Christmas card; Christopher is smiling differently from normal and has major Asian occasion.

special occasion zit

(n) A zit that appears on the skin of a person before a special occasion such as family gatherings, professional photo ops, parties, extravaganzas, dates, and holidays.
Example: I have been so excited to finally go on a date with Russell. Not suprisingly the day before our date I got a special occasion zit.

Example: Tomorrow is our family reunion! I will get to see people I haven't seen in years! Some people are coming that I haven't even met. I hope I don't get a special occasion zit.

Occasional Other

Someone to have consistent, yet occasional relations with. While similar to a friend with benefits this sometimes-relationship goes beyond sex, would include occasional dates without the commitment and strings of a full-on relationship.
