Microcamping 

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

Microcraving 

When for a brief moment (a few seconds) you really really crave a cigarette, and it's dizzying and usually accompanied by a strong remembering of the smell/taste, even if nobody around is smoking. It passes very fast.

This is also common for social smokers, and is the first sign of addiction starting to set in. In social smokers, the microcravings get more and more intense the longer they stay a social smoker and the more often they social smoke, until they become actual cravings and they become a full-blown smoker. If you're a social smoker who has started getting microcravings, it's basically your last chance to turn back, as this is the last stage at which quitting is easy.

For ex-social smokers who were smart enough to not get fully addicted, future exposure even months after they quit can trigger microcravings again. For example, spending an extended period of time in the smoking area of a nightclub may result in you having microcravings the next day or two.
When I was 19 and at college, I experimented with social smoking cuz everyone was doing it, but after my fifth lifetime cigarette, I started to get microcravings, these really dizzying moments of wanting a cigarette for a few seconds. The more I did it, the stronger these microcravings lasted and I realized I was actually getting addicted to smoking, so I stopped. My friend wasn't so smart, and became a 20-a-day smoker. Hanging around them was exposing me to so much second-hand smoke that my microcravings actually returned again, so I had to stop hanging out with them until they cut down.
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh

1. Billy hate drafted Chad OchoCinco because he knew Sam had wanted him since he is from Cincinnati. Billy already had plenty of players to fill that position but wanted to make sure Sam didn't get him.

2. Billy hate drafted Peyton Manning because he was the only good quarterback left and he knew Sam had been planning on drafting him.
