Similar to camping in most first-person shooters, but it involves moving to usually 3 or 4 hiding spots and waits for people to show up. A microcamper usually cycles through locations after 2-4 kills. Hiding spots are usually near battle fields where lots of action happens
Guy#1: "Dude, can you please stop camping, I think the other team's getting pissed at you.
Guy#2: "Chill man, I'm microcamping. You can ambush 'em when they try to sneak up on an old hiding spot
Calling attention to a small detail or attribute that bothers you about someone, or asking them to explain it to you on the spot. Usually something that most people would avoid out of respect, or overlook because of how unimportant it is, especially when done without any segue and derailing the conversation or ruining the vibe.
May be done intentionally to "knock someone down a peg", or unintentionally due to social retardation. The chosen detail may be an insecurity for the microscopee, or may become a new insecurity after the microscoping is complete. The chosen detail may cross a line, leading others to callout the microscoper, or it may be too subtle to warrant a callout.
Guy1: "Hey everyone, look at this amazing art that my step-daughter drew!"
Guy2: "Saying step-daughter is sad, why not just say daughter?"
Guy3: "What's really sad is you microscoping that."
it's when you minimize yourself, thinking you're not important, there's billions of people out there, and you're one out of thousands in your town, so you think "what difference do i make"
john: "hey man you should you go out with us and party"
Steven: "nah im good, i don't feel like going, no one is gonna talk to me"
john: "stop microscoping yourself, and get out there"
when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.
This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"
FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
