meta-eating

The act of eating a more readily accessible type of food while concurrently pursuing a more difficultly procured food product. This is done in order to save time and/or avoid boredom.

The dining hall was serving salad, paninis, and pizza, the latter two of which had significant waiting lines. Johnson wanted a salad and panini for lunch, so he grabbed a salad and ate it as he stood in line for his sandwich.

"Dude, you're totally meta-eating right now," his friend said.

"What the fuck are you talking about?" Johnson replied.

metadating

Talking about dating while on a date

I was on a date with Joe and he started talking about dating and all the crazy girls he's met on OkCupid and Tinder. I hate metadating!

metadating

The project management of online dating...remembering what you said to whom and when on which social network or dating site...and maintaining a fully auditable digital record of said exchanges for legal purposes.

Man, was it Tribe.net, Friendster or... shit - I need a metadating service!

metabating

Engaging in excessive metaphysical speculation. Especially common practice among psycics, french philosophers, and philosophy majors looking to lure unsuspecting english majors into sexual congress.

"I totally caught Pierre metabating in front of some chicks at last night's poetry slam."
