Socialing media

When someone either
A.) continues a comment conversation in person that started on Ig, Fb, twitter etc.
B.)compliments someone in person based off of something they posted online
C.) commenting on a social media post in person
D.) points our how many likes they got or how many they didn't on a post

Basically, just breaking the barrier between social media and social interaction.
You know what this is. Everybody has at least one friend who does it. Ex. Of Socialing media"Why did you tweet that??"

social ambush

A social ambush occurs when somebody you least want and/or least expect to see, ends up standing face to face with you in a social setting like a restaurant, bar, gallery, houseparty, etc.. You are more likely to feel surprised or anxious at first, then mad. Sometimes mutual associates can be aware the meeting will take place but for whatever reason, they do not bother to warn you. The best way to deal with the situation is to LEAVE. No need to say something you might regret later.
I went out with Jenny to that new restaurant last night and Tina just popped up. I felt like it was a social ambush. I walked out five minutes later.

Social Trap

A Social Trap is where someone uses another persons decency against them, generally to make them do something they'd rather not. They can start as an open invitation or request to do something that someone would not normally do, if they refuse they risk being uncharacteristically rude or impolite, or they continue. While not entirely unlike peer pressure Social Traps rely more on the finesse of landing the target in the trap, whether this be through carefully calculated subterfuge or dumb-luck. This makes them more similar to plain manipulation or a lower-stakes ultimatum, however instead of choosing A or B they are slightly more geared towards the etiquette and standards of the target.
"Dude what happened? I left you and Lucy alone for 10 minutes and I come back to you watching this."
"I didn't want to watch it, if I had refused it would've been rude."
"Yeah right, bet you enjoyed."
No I really didn't . She totally caught me in a Social Trap."

socially awesome

Describes someone who, after spending his childhood/adolescence/young adulthood being labelled "socially awkward" by insecure peers, finally gets his shit together and through experience learns how to be the life of the party.
Hey, remember that kid Lance who never knew what to say about the latest Jersey Shore episode? He was, like, soooo socially awkward.

No, he's socially awesome now, I totally saw him last weekend at the bar and he was telling the best jokes to a group of 50 people.
