crypticism 

The art of referring to events or feelings cryptically.

Often practised on sites like LiveJournal, e-where posters attempt to use crypticism to avoid starting drama. Unfortunately, when people try to interpret the crypticism drama often ensues anyway.

The best crypticism is incomprehensible to anyone not already in the know, but makes things quite clear to its intended audience.

craptivist 

Someone who gets unbelievably passionate about human rights, social change, equality etc. etc. They have strong opinions and (occasionally) sound theories but do nothing about them. This person only voices their opinion when they don't believe they'll get called out, but never stick to their guns when faced with a situation which challenges the beliefs they care about so keenly.
