Duranguense 

Share definition Flag
An alternative form of music known as vulgar entertainment created in the U.S. by Mexicans. The music is done typically by taking songs from great Mexican aunthentic talents and re-creating them with an obnoxious mix of intruments and over the line fast paced tempos. In later times some groups have been creating new songs, yet they seem worse than re-creating songs from other artists.

The style was popular, yet it never sinked in as culture, it was seen more as a moment thing due to its lack of tasteful originality.

Also, music groups of this genre tend to fight amongst each other to have people see they were "the first" ones to create that kind of music.

An genre of Mexican music that is generally considered an embarrassment to the Mexican culture.

Unbeknownst to its fans, ( Who somehow convinced that it sounds good, and even that It is"romantic")

The rest of the human population think it sounds like circus music, or even an orchestra of farting orangutans.

The dance that is performed to this "music" can be one of several ways

1) pretend to have something stuck in your ass, and do a one leg jump alternating legs

2) that bald kid in the orange shirt from the Charlie Brown Christmas special
Hey cabron, why aren't you dancing el Pasito Duranguense?

Because I'm waiting for actual music to play

Share definition Flag
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
