Don't try this at home

It means try it at home.

Dr. Magic is about to set himself on fire, jump off a bridge,
get eaten by sharks, play poker, rob a bank, AND sleep with a woman ALL in 5 minutes. Don't try this at home. Because he's cooler than you.

Gaming Try Hard

Someone who's entire purpose in life is to min-max out the perfect performance and win at all costs at whatever video game they're playing. Takes priority over all other considerations.

Gives the impression they don't even care or are even aware of any other aspects of the game, beyond playing it like a calculator or spreadsheet. "Try Hards" only care about the ends, not the means. For example, if that requires them to build an "I win!" character and spam one move over and over and over and over again, that's what they'll do if it gets them the almighty results of "winning."

Probably a compensation for real-life lack of fulfillment. Also results in overly defensive definitions listed on this website for 'Try Hard' by would-be gaming Try Hards.

"That Gaming Try Hard raid-leader called me a nub because I didn't use this or that ability at the exact perfect micro-second of the boss fight!!!"

"LOL that Gaming Try Hard sent me a PM during PvP and said "Git gud, scrub. I just beat you!" (But they failed to mention they use a FOTM EZ mode toon, spamming 2 moves over and over and over)

The Old DeVry Try

Similar to The old college try but with even less effort; less like "college," more like "trade school."

"As soon as he pulled into the McDonald's drive-thru and seriously asked what I wanted, I knew he was only giving this 'date' The Old DeVry Try."

I'll try anything once

An expression of the adventurous attitude of the late 60s and early 70s.

I'll try anything once is the only proper response to try it, you'll like it.
