Tension Whore

Individuals like jesse jackson and al sharpton who seek out controversial incidents or subject matter to incite their followers' often violent reactions for the purpose of receiving attention.

It should be noted that Tension Whores are not limited to racial matters. Other notable Tension Whores include:
Rosie O'Donnell, Geraldo Rivera, and Jerry Springer.

Tension Whores should not be confused with simple Attention Whores.
The tension whores descended on Don Imus over his racially charged comments on TV and demanded his resignation.

prestige whore

Someone who makes choices about colleges, jobs, scholarships and internships on the basis of prestige, and revels in their exclusivity rather than picking the options that are most substantively interesting or actually enjoyable to them. For these individuals, the presumption is, if you didn't get the top-ranked option, you clearly must have been rejected.
Like many of the prestige whores in their senior year at Harvard, Jacob applied only to Yale Law, Harvard Med, and Goldman Sachs. It didn't matter which one he got, as long as everyone knew it was ranked #1.
