Chautauqua Boys and Girls Club 

Day camp for kids through their freshman year of high school. Counselors are kids who peaked in freshman and sophomore year and are majorly depressed during the school year and are desperate to relive their glory days.

Counselors and older kids drink their asses off (counselors to forget that they’re almost adults and have already peaked). Work ethic = low and counselors = hungover. Once the counselors are too old to work there, they pretend they’re happy and move on to something else in the summer, until they have kids and bring them back to CHQ to continue the cycle.

Seasoners bring their kids and make them seasoners too in a desperate and futile attempt to live vicariously through their kids (since they peaked in high school). These kids will undoubtedly grow up and become counselors, peak in high school like their parents, and bring their kids to Chautauqua and put them through Boys and Girls Club, completing the cycle year after year.
“Did you go to Chautauqua Boys and Girls Club?”
“Yeah, the best times of my life. Wish I could go back! But instead I’ll just force my kid to go in order to feel like I’m a teenager again!”

Boysclubbing 

The phenomena of males, particularly in technical fields, completely ignoring women in the same field. Intentionally excluding them from conversations and discussions, especially in face-to-face settings. Literally acting like the women don’t exist.
A bunch of dudes chit chatting in the hotel elevator with each other about the IT conference but completely ignore my presence, like I am invisible. I hate boysclubbing.
