Torping is a penguin character and the official mascot of the Linux Communities. It was created on 7th of May 2017 as the relative of Tux, the original mascot created in 1996 for the Linux Kernel. The meaning of Torping can be derived from Linus Torvalds penguin. Another explanation can be Tor (anonymity network) and ping (the network utility used to test reachability)

Torping out 

An embarrassingly noticeable indicator of male arousal. Not unlike a boner, but much more visible, like that of a torpedo.
Me: Hey Farbod, come out and throw the nerf football around with me!

Farbod: No can do buddy. I'm watching Juno right now and I'm Torping Out. Hard.

Cow topping 

The selective removal of the extremities of a cow. Such trimming can give better shape to the cow and will encourage further growth.

When cows grow too leggy, it can be helpful to lop excess growth, which will promote the cow to fill out instead of growing too tall and spindly.

Not to be confused with cow tipping, which is the act of giving monetary reward to cows that have provided good service.
Monty Don: In this episode of Gardeners' World, I will be showing the techniques of cow topping, using my small chainsaw and pruning secateurs.

social topping 

Asserting your dominance in a social situation. Like being a top in a gay relationship, but in a social context.
"Claudia just told me she's gonna eat my leftovers in our fridge"
"Ugh, she's always social topping"

story topping 

1. Noun. Conversational ploy seeking oneupsmanship by articulating a more extreme, better (or worse), more impressive comeback responding to a previous utterance.
Oh, yeah? Well, if my mom wears combat boots, your old lady wears them in bed!
You're not very good at story topping, are you?

Torrington High School 

Public school in northwestern Connecticut. Prides itself on a lack of ceilings, random bomb threats, a series of nuclear fallout shelter tunnels, knife-wielding students, and at least one teacher who breaks and enters.
"And I'd like to congratulate the 1% of Torrington High Schools's graduating class who are not going on to UConn, Central Connecticut, NCCC-- or McDonalds."
