National Honor Society

An organization that is supposed to honor high school students for their academic achievements, community service, leadership, and character. However, this has greatly changed in the present day, as it essentially honors students that the teachers of the school like for any reason at all.

Girl One: Did you hear that Sally got into National Honor Society?
Girl Two: Yeah! It's only cause the NHS sponsor is her basketball coach, and she always wears short skirts to his class.
Girl One: I know, right? I didn't get in. But whatever, let's go study calculus, feed the homeless, and create an organization to end world hunger!
Girl Two: I didn't get in either. But sounds like fun! Let's go!

Guy One: Did you hear that Billy got into National Honor Society?
Guy Two: Shut up, I'm trying to do my AP Physics, only one more problem until I've completed all the work for the semester.
Guy One: Holy crap! Did you get into NHS?
Guy Two: No, I don't play sports, I don't have time after volunteering in my community, getting a 4.0GPA, and being a mentor to underprivileged children in Africa.
Guy One: That sucks, man!

Honors student

A person in high school enrolled in the maximum number of Honors and/or Advanced Placement (AP) classes. Most are concerned about their grades and have hopes of attending a "good" college. Generally, these students understand the art of BSing everything - essays the night before, homework either copied from a friend in the hall or done in the class before its due, etc. - and still maintain great grades. Contrary to popular belief, many Honors students are down-to-earth, procrastinate like its their job, and are involved in school acitivities. Of course, you'll always have those few whose only friends are the AP Calculus textbook and #2 pencil.

Honors Student 1: I need the AP Calculus homework that's due today! I had a soccer game last night till 8 and then didn't feel like doing anything so I fell asleep.

Honors Student 2: No problem, I need AP Chemistry though, I only could finish half of it this morning.

Honors Student 1: Yeah, that's fine.

Move of Honor

Open shoving AA or KK preflop in no limit holdem games for 50 big blinds and hoping you get called by a worse hand. This was considered a good strategy when online poker was in its infancy.

There was a big fish in the small blind so I just used the move of honor from the button and got called by Ace-Jack.
