January 26er
A term used to describe a die-hard fan of NBA legend Kobe Bryant, who will often go to great lengths to push the narrative of Kobe's GOAT argument. In the process, they will also tend to completely discredit the career of LeBron James.
This term is a cross-reference between a January 6er (a person who stormed the U.S. Capitol Building in support of then-President Donald Trump) and January 26th, Kobe's tragic date of death.
Most January 26ers hail from the city of Los Angeles, but they can realistically live just about anywhere on the map.
They also tend to have a very heavy presence on Twitter/X, and can often be found either retweeting Kobe highlights, or deep in NBA-related threads arguing aggressively in support of their favorite player.
They are also swift to dismiss comparisons to Tim Duncan, as they firmly believe that Michael Jordan is the only player comparable to Kobe.
(For context, Tim Duncan was Kobe's most significant rival as a player, with both of them winning 5 championships for their respective teams and are both widely regarded as the two faces of the 2000's era of NBA Basketball.)
This term is essentially equivalent to the term "Bronsexual", but to instead be used against Kobe stans.
Important Note: This term is not to be used against ALL fans of Kobe, but only those with an unnecessary hatred towards LeBron.
Most of them are also completely oblivious to the fact that Kobe and LeBron had nothing but deep respect for each other off the court.

January 26er: Did you know that LeBron went 4-6 in the finals? He needed a superteam and a half just to win anything. Kobe would never!

Striver
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.
