Traditional 

A weekend where a large group of aging men get together to play too much golf, drink too much booze, do too many drugs, hit on too many girls, creep out girls who are way too young, sleep with girls who are way too fat, and just act like overall degenerate scrum bags. Only to return home on Sunday, kiss their wives, girlfriends, and/or kids hello and tell them they have to go lay down, not feelings so well, must have eaten some bad fish at the fish fry last night.
I can't go to the Traditional this year, last year I almost lost my kids, my wife, my job, and my driver's license.

Traditional 

Someone who lives the tradition - from the Latin tradere (to transmit, to hand over, to give for safekeeping). Has an aristocratic lifestyle (in its true sense) not necessarily belonging to the wealthier classes of society. One who is interested in autochthonous cultures, history, arts, mythologies, transcendence, philosophy, high culture, good manners, refined language, education and intellectuality. Gives enormous value to dilettantism, refinement and the aesthetics of details, is a dissident of the vulgar.
Being traditional is to keep improving and transmitting achievements and values over the years, adapting to the current reality, without losing the original essence.

Traditional 

It is who lives the tradition - from the Latin traditio, tradere = "to transmit", "hand over". It is based on the preservation of culture, weltanschauung, myths, spirituality, moral values, virtue, loyalty, honor, respect for ancestors, asceticism, wisdom, and timeless ancient teachings and philosophies.

It does not deny the present, however, respects the past, to ensure the future.
"The traditional is distinct from its contemporaries, a timeless survivor."

Traditional Aristocracy

It is a form of power based on the principles of courage, honor, high culture, intellectuality and superior moral values. Something similar to what Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, Xenophon and Spartans defined.

Among its main concepts are the fierce opposition to the centralized Modern State, the French Revolution and the consequent Liberal Bourgeois State, and its evils: Anarchism, Liberalism, Fascism, Communism, Marxism, Socialism, Nationalism, Modernism, Representative Democracy, Capitalism, Progressism, Totalitarianism, Humanism, Secular State, Statism, Positivism, anti-right-left dichotomy, mass media, consumerism, materialism, anti-system, anti-republican, feminism, human rights, technocracy, gay rights, ecumenism, ideologies, globalization, militant atheism and abortion. He is skeptical of science, technology, organized religions and economics.
"The main difference between a traditional and a conservative is that the former believes in transcendent values, while the latter preserves the values of the bourgeois revolution and its consequences. Therefore, one should not confuse Traditional Aristocracy with Conservative Oligarchy."

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
