Pronounced just as it sounds, the slang word “Shriv” is derived from the word “shriveled”, which isn’t an American word, rather, perhaps from a Scandinavian source (compare Swedish skryvla "to wrinkle, to shrivel, to shrink”)

“Shriv” is a word which describes one’s state of mind/state of being. It means to be cold. As in, unprepared. Not ready. Shriv is the opposite of being ready. Instead of saying “I’m going in HOT” the word “SHRIV” replaces the word “HOT”.
“Ima fail my test since I’m totes SHRIV”!

“”Dude gonna fail that shiz cuz he goin’ in all SHRIV like”!

Shiv syndrome 

When the two tard Shiv's go head to head in anything. These niggas are always beefing with each other about some dumbass shit. All the shit they say when beefing makes no sense at all so it is virtually impossible for everyone else to pick a side. Due to their inability to coexist at all, anytime they are together, it is an extremely toxic situation. It looks like they have some unspoken competition about who the better Shiv is. The only thing this duo is good for is providing entertainment to everyone else with their constant beef.
The Shiv's went head to head in 2k and started beefing because one called the other "trash" so both of Shiv's began to argue about who is better at 2k and they always look for any opportunity to take digs at each anytime the other Shiv fucks up. We always refer to this beef as the "Shiv syndrome."
