Social gardening

The act of removing someone from your contacts list on a social networking site, your phone or email contact list.

Wow, I'm really sick of all these social vampires who always ask me to help them, but never return the favor. I think it's time to do a little social gardening.

social quicksand

A person who sucks you into a long and boring pointless conversation you want no part of, and you have no way to get out of.

Sorry I was late, hon, the woman behind me in line at the market sucked me into a social quicksand.

social acceptance

Social acceptance is the fact that most people, in order to fit in with the others, look and act like them. It stops (mostly) everyone from truly being themselves. It's is also the reason most people look painfully average. See conformist.

Social acceptance destroyed the world.

Socially Competitive

Striving to be socially better or more fun than everyone else in the room just for bragging rights. This often includes creating random adventures and outings just to have a story to tell the next day.

Lysa: So what did you do yesterday?
G'na: I totally went out on a Tuesday night, won a dance off and received a drunken marriage proposal from a 41 year old man named Skip.
Lysa: Oh, I finished my novel.

(As you can see G'na was socially competitive and blew Lysa's recap of her night out of the water)
