chapuling

The source of the verb Chapuling is Turkish word "Çapulcu" (means looter, plunderer) which was used to describe Gezi Park protestors by Turkish PM Erdogan. Meanwhile in Occupy Gezi Park protests someone sprayed on a wall "Every day I'm Çapuling!" and the verb went viral.

After PM's speech protestors started to call themselves çapulcus and yeah they were chapuling,
Resisting,
Seeking for rights,
Seeking justice,
Protesting.

Chepling

A massive cunt which makes youtube videos and is apparently in its words is "making moneeeey." The Chepling is known to do its fair share of brown nosing, especially to its wet dog companion. Why this creature is so persistent with these terrible videos and why in its opinion it is wrong for people to view it; despite the fact that, that is the fucking point of a video is unknown... however CHEPLING!!!

Did I mention that he is making money?
"Im going to go and watch some Chepling videos as I need something to convince me to pull the trigger and end my life."

Chapulling

Chapulling is a neologism derived from the 2013 protests in Turkey after Prime Minister Erdogan's speech. He used the word "çapulcu" (normally means "looter", "marauder") to describe the demonstrators and then the social sites adapted this word to English with a new meaning: fighting for one's rights.

Chapul (verb): (/ˈtʃapu(ə)ːl/ regular, -ed): To resist force, demand justice, seek one's rights.
Chapuller (noun): (/ˈtʃapu(ə)ːlə/): A person who resists force, demands justice and seeks his/her rights.
Chapulation (noun) : (/ˈtʃapu(ə)ʃənː/): The act of resisting force, demanding justice and seeking one's rights.
-Everyday I'm chapulling.

-I'm neither rightist or leftist, I am a chapuller.

Capling (Drinking Game)

Similar to the spirit of Curling, Capling is played with a beer bottle as a target and beer caps as the objects in play. Each player in a round of Capling is given the opportunity to toss 1 beer cap at the beer bottle with the closest cap to the bottle being the winner. The winner of the round is then allowed to dish out 10 drinks to any of the players, in any variation they choose (eg. losing player #1 must drink all 10). Once a player wins a round of Capling, they are then allowed to relocate the site of the beer bottle and another round begins with the past rounds winner shooting first.

Capling was invented by Jeff Dawidowitz and Mike Wickett in the beautiful city of St. Catharines, Ontario. While Jeff Dawidowitz was the inaugural Capling champion, Mike Wickett has succeeded him in every championship since. Capling has reached the height of its popularity at Silly Sundays - a popular spot to catch a full days schedule of NFL Football.
Game of Capling (Drinking Game) example: Cap #1 lands closer to the bottle than Cap #2 at the end of the round. Therefore person who threw Cap #2 must drink 10.
