1) A student who has been designated as intellectually superior by their board of educators.

2) A student who is enrolled in gifted classes.

3) A student considered by their peers to be smart.

Gifties are characterized by their odd senses of humor, strange hobbies, strange relationships with their peers, an ability to tell whether or not another person is gifted by talking to them, and a general rivalry with students recieving normal educations, or "normies".

Gifties are, needless to say, often considered "wierd" for their personalities. Personality traits of gifties vary from person to person, and can include perfectionism, depression, extreme happiness (often to the slight disturbance of others), antisocial tendencies, rebellious behaviour, creativity, uncontrollable energy, spontaneous outbursts, an inability to concentrate, and (most common) hyperactivity.

Contrary to popular belief, gifties often do not succeed in school and do not neccesarily care about their education. Many gifties recieve poor grades, are disorganized, disrupt classes, and may have great difficulty in a certain subject area.

Gifties are a small portion of the population, and prefer to stick with each other rather than the rest of the population, often impatient with ways of society that may seem unimportant, unfair or unneccesary to them.

One who possesses superior intelligence and is therefore placed in special classes with other gifties.

The gifty is characterized by poor social skills (they seldom deign to socialize with normies), grammatical nitpicking, and explosive individualism.

Some gifties are also nerds. These are often the least normal (and thereby the most gifted) of all the gifties, and usually embody certain aspects of the gifted subculture.
Teacher A: I hate teaching the damn gifty class.

Teacher B: Why?

Teacher A: It's so chaotic. They just spent the whole class arguing.

Teacher B: What about?

Teacher A: Kirk vs. Picard.

A wierdo, a spaz, a wonderfully crazy nut with a personality flashier and brighter than a multicoloured disco ball. Usually relates best to other gifties. Refers to most, but not all, students in gifted classes. In rare instances, students who are not in gifted classes may also be called gifties if they fit the personality requirements described above.
"What a bunch of wierdos."
"What? It's just that gifty and his friends."

only of significance as something to buy and give for the holidays (or sometimes birthdays), but otherwise totally useless the minute they unwrap it.
Gifty things aren't exactly stuff you find at Spencer or actual gift shops...no, gifty crap is what you find on end caps at Target and in checkout lines at Ross every December.

Every store gets in the act of selling gifty stuff. The likes of Home Depot will sell iPod speakers and baby booties just because it's the holidays.
