Colbertism 

Share definition Flag
The display of irrational dislike for Canada and Canadians, normally the result of an upbringing by rednecks in the backwoods of South Carolina.
After Canada refused to believe the USA's fake rationale for invading Iraq, many ignorant Americans, like Mike Judge caught a bad case Colbertism, which has been subsequently unshakable by common sense and truth.

Colbertistas 

Share definition Flag
The group of followers of Stephen Colbert (host of The Colbert Report) who act on suggestions made during the show. The term was first used on the talk page of the Wikipedia entry for elephant, after Colbert called for the entry to be modified to reflect a (fictitious) three-fold increase in the elephant population. The Colbertistas are said to engage in Colberrorism.
The Colbertistas are changing the 'latchkey kid' entry now, times to lock it down.

Colbertity

The Law of Colbertity states that Steven Colbert is so awesome that if he were to become less awesome, he would only become more awesome, and if he were to become more awesome he would become less awesome. This is caused by the fact that Colbert is the highest point of awesome, there is no match to his level of "Awesomeness" and there is no exceeding his level due to the limitations of the English word "Awesome." If he were to become less awesome the peak of awesomeness would lower with Colbert.
The man who reached colbertity exploded because Stevens Colbertity was much strong than the man's.

Colberting is the act of posting a number of high-resolution images in a thread on an web forum in an attempt to make it difficult for other forum members to read, thereby either slowing or stoping the conversation occuring within it. In practice, pictures of Stephen Colbert are often used as the requisite high-resolution images, but any high-resolution images will do.
I wanted to read Kelly's tribute thread, but it looks like Mikey has been busy Colberting it, and when I opened it my browser crashed.

colbertian 

Share definition Flag
adjective--a state of cocksure audacity, brilliantly brash and of breathtakingly behemothic gonadal proportion.

Origin-- This word was coined following Stephen Colbert's perfomance at the 2006 White House Correspondents' Dinner, April 29, 2006, where Mr. Colbert, using brilliant wit and biting satire, had the courage to prove that Emperor George Bush had no clothes and that the entire Washington press corp was asleep at the switch.

Mr. Colbert's demonstration of testicular fortitude-- his brazen display of juevos grandes-- has certainly earned him the right to his own English language adjective. COLBERTIAN
His perfomance last night was not just stunning, one could only call it colbertian!

With colbertian vigor, we lifted the yoke of oppression and retook the great land that once was ours.

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
