Get the diplomacy mug.An awesome Avalon-Hill board game of strategy, tactics, negotiation, and (best of all) backstabbing.
Players play any one of 7 pre-WWI European countries and try to take over the rest. Gameplay can be best described as a cross between Risk and chess. Risk, because of the map-based, multi-player world domination aspect, chess, because the strategies are complex even though the rules may be simple. In addition, like chess, Diplomacy is the only other board game with popularity in the play-by-mail or play-by-email form.
A backstab is often abbreviated as "stab."

"Facebook diplomacy" is so called because it is, like real diplomacy, the building and maintaining of relationships, except it is done with facebook instead of in person, over the phone, or using any other traditional means of communication. Facebook diplomacy usually consists mostly of exchanging wall posts with other people.
Unfortunately, given that the nature of facebook is devoid of meaningful substance, facebook diplomacy is often just useless banter and/or not thought out or cohesive. A person might have a lot of facebook diplomacy with an acquaintance that they don't really know, which will often boil down to an essence of nothing more than "what's up?"

College student: "That girl from class just friended me. She seems cool, I think I'll do some facebook diplomacy and get to know her a little."

"Justin was ignorantly speaking about 'homos' again last night at the bar. But my gay cousin was with us and got really upset. So I stuck up for my cousin and argued with Justin until he threw a beer at me. At that point I switched to pugilistic-diplomacy and prevailed in the argument."
