Get the Tippin mug.Or just known as tapping, is a guitar technique popularized, but not invented, by Eddie Van Halen and is usually used in Hard Rock and Heavy Metal. This technique easy to some extent and beginners often use it to impress other people since it is so easy yet so hard-looking. This technique is essentially hammering-on and pulling-off through use of both hands, tapping can range from 2 fingers (Surfing With The Alien) all the way to 10 fingers (Buckethead live). The first song to use tapping that I know of is Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap by AC/DC in 1976, even though Angus Young doesn't tap it live, he originally tapped the solo in the studio to make it a lot easier to play correctly without a lot of extra string noise, but over the years he definitely mastered it with just hammer-ons and pull-offs. Others have claimed that 50's blues and jazz musicians have used tapping as well.
Holy shit! Look at Joe! He's tapping so fast you can't even see his fingers! Finger tapping looks so cool!

Get the topping mug.Tapping (Usually done in wolf team) is when someone unplugs/puts their modem on standby, kills someone, then plugs it back/returns the connection.
How it works:
When you play, your modem is constantly sending and receiving packets. When you tap, you are temporarily disconnecting yourself so that you will not receive new packets.
At this time your character will appear to freeze to the other players and in turn they will freeze as seen by you.
This is when you can shoot their frozen models, so that when you reconnect and all the packets that could not be sent out during the few seconds of the "tap" will be sent out at once. This is why if someone is tapping and he kills e.g. 5 people during the tap period and plugs it back, All five people will suddenly die at exactly the same time.
When you are tapping you are just as vulnerable because by tapping, you are freezing yourself too so your potential tapee's (victims) can easily shoot your model, rendering you dead.
My advice:
1. Hide in a corner where nobody can find you during your frozen period
2. Unplug
3. Run outside and look for victims. Be as fast as possible to kill him because if you freeze for too long (8+ seconds) you will disconnect yourself
If you don't see anyone, run back because you don't want to disconnect
4. Run back to your original hiding spot after killing
5. Replug

Get the Tapping mug.When a person, specificly a male gets too excited while using his laptop, causing it to tip, much to the annoiance of his disturbed roommates.

Get the laptop tipping mug.The act of trimming one's sideburns at or above the top of the ear. Sometimes referred to as "negative sideburns", this is an amateur description at best. The term "toppies" has been around since the early 7th century, commonly used to ridicule a village retard or "less than intelligent hairstyle", as toppies were in fact the sideburn style of the commoner.
Today toppies are seen in many different walks of life, from rich to poor, intelligent to moronic, but one consistent fact prevails when referring to a "toppied" gentleman.... style.
