Carniphobia 

Share definition Flag
Fear or phobia of being "Fleishig".
Jewish law requires that one wait six hours between eating meat and dairy. Many religious Jews have thus developed a phobia for eating meat during day hours because they "might" want to eat something dairy later on in the day.
("Fleishig" is the Yiddish word for "Meaty").
I'm starving. All they had was meat - which I naturally couldn't bring myself to eat because I suffer from a severe case of Carniphobia.

cannophobia 

Share definition Flag
An irrational fear of cannabis that was mostly caused by traumatic memories which could be results of many years of prohibition. As an illegal drug, cannabis was closely related to shady characters selling all range of drugs, who considered "converting" cannabis users to harder drugs (i.e. amphetamine, cocaine) profitable.

This is also the source of "gateway theory", which states that smoking cannabis leads to harder drugs usage.
Someone: Dude, I tried everything! I showed my dad all the infographics, test results, detailed story of cannabis criminalization... How can he be so stubborn?!
Someone Else: Give up, mate, your dad is a total cannophobe. Now pass that joint...
Someone: He's a who?
Someone Else: He has a bad case of cannophobia. Will you pass it or not?

Striver 

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
