When a girl, typically named Laryssa, is randomly spying on, or boredly observing someone or something, or suspiciously looking for something to do. For Laryssa to be bored and gathering useless information about something or someone to possibly use against you in a funny situation, she would be lurking.
Laryssa is bored at home. She trained her cats to use the toilet instead of the litter box. Her cats were on the toilet and looked out the door and caught Laryssa lurking around the corner watching them.

bus boy at work:"damn, look at all that money they left on her table!"
random server:"you better not touch it, Laryssa is somewhere lurking and that bitch will stab you with a used fork!"

The time in between you introducing yourself to someone and them asking you to leave. If you hang around for longer than that, you become a sex pest
I was so hammered last night, I was lurking on every girl in the club.

That guy is always lurking, but he never posts.

To read without commenting or contributing, therefore effectively invisible to the rest of the group or community. Generally recommended for joining any forum so that you can observe rules, attitudes and prominent personalities without jumping in and breaking a rule, making an ass of yourself, or asking a question about something obvious that you would have learned for yourself if you’d paid attention in the first place.

Online equivalent of attentive listening before speaking; potentially the solution to all Internet faux pas.
That board will rip you a new one if you don't lurk before posting, man.

Lurk moar, n00b.
