1. Any person that you just meet who attempts to befriend you immediately or to infiltrate an already established group of friends by trying desparately to fit in.
A common tactic of this individual is to over-self disclose about extremely personal things in order to "gain your trust" immediately.
Also known as "instafriend-just add beer."
"That guy Jason that Mo invited last night was such a level jumper; he told us me his dad died last week and then asked for my phone number in case he 'needed someone to talk to.'"
Used when a person has segued from one topic to another, seemingly unrelated topic, though a mental leap of which only that person is aware. A reference to the 1981 video gameDonkey Kong, where Mario can only jump down to a platform that is one 'level' below him; if he falls too far, he dies.
