Live Action Role Play. Acting out a fantasy in the real world.
I am a male post-op transsexual and I love misogynistically and offensively LARPing at being a woman.

Look at this larp he looks literally siberian !
Active tense of larp. Wilful self delusion in the service of strong egoic compulsions. The wilful desire to attribute imagined context to a situation or activity in order to live out romanticised situations and roles for egoic fulfilment.
i.e. Q, the ultimate larp congregation. Modus operandi, the purposeful suspension of critical thinking in order to open up reality to being much more interesting than it really is. Attributing deeper meaning to randomness and assuming there is a greater order or conspiracy at play that can account for why life's events aren't unfolding the way you expect them to. Also see Cope, Copium, Hope, Hopium
John larps hard, he spends hours hammering away in the terminal rather than using the UI to complete a task immediately, but at least it makes him feel like a hacker.

Ben; You'd really out yourself as a nazi but in reality you're nothing more than just a LARP LMFAO!
Completing meaningless tasks which provide solely artificial (and no real-world) value. Jumping through hoops put there for the sake of it as opposed to achieve anything.
Person 1: "On my degree course I learned next to nothing useful, I felt like all I had to do was larp to meet a large word count."
Person 2: "Same here, my final assignment was just me larping for 10,000 words."
