Ship-testing is when a person does something to another individual just to see how they’ll react to what’s been done to them, or to gauge how they’ll behave under certain situations.
This is done in many ways, and most people unknowingly do it on a regular basis. For instance a man might ship-test his girlfriend by not contacting her all day to see if she’d reach out to him.
A boss can ship-test their employee by ordering them to do a specific task while withholding crucial details to determine how well they can work and overcome obstacles.
A mother can take away her child’s favorite toy to see if they’ll have a reaction like getting mad.
A guy can ship-test the honesty of his coworkers by leaving money on the ground nearby and see who alerts him of it or takes it.
Ship-testing is often done to predict the future behavior of a person; and/or to determine their moral compass.

Examples of Ship-testing:
“I have a strong suspicion that if I don’t text my friend Josh he’ll never reach out to me. I’m going to ship-test him by not calling or texting him.”
“My boss ship-tested me by hiding my backpack in his office to see if I’d flip out and lose my temper.”
“My girlfriend ship-tested me by having her friend flirt with me to see if I’d cheat on her.”
“The dog’s chew toy makes such an annoying sound. I’m going to ship-test it and see if it’ll freak out when I take it away.”
“You don’t need to ship-test me to see if I’m being honest with you Brandon! Ask me directly!”
“I wanted to see what you’d say about Janet. I brought her up because you know she’s a goth. I wanted to know if you’d judge her for it. Because then I’d know you’d judge me because I’m goth too. It was a ship-test.”

Relationship bullshit. The ridiculous bullshit that one has to go through in a relationship that doesn't make logical sense. Typically in a relationship that is not working out or going well.
Friend: "Hey how's it going between you and Tony?"
You: "Ya know same old ship-shit...I don't know if we're going to last much longer."
OR
You: "What are you and Tammy fighting about anyways?"
Friend: "Stupid ship-shit. She expects me to pay for her dogs grooming bill because she says I'm 'the one that makes him shed' because I pet him 'too much'. It doesn't even make sense."

an act of sexual intercourse between two men and one woman. The woman crouches on all fours and one man inserts his penis into her mouth the other into her vagina or anus. She then slides backwards and forwards on both penises. This mimmicks the motion of a pirate ship ride.

a girl takes a puff from a cigarette, then holds her breath while perfroming oral sex on the man until she must exhale. Then, she must exhale slowly while sliding her lips back of the cock. More and more of the penis will be revealed from the mouth, causing more and more smoke to come out with it.
Laquisha loves smoking and giving head, so she combined her two favorite hobbies and gave me a rocket ship.
