Current Event 

Share definition Flag
You look for a newspaper/online article then write a summary about it or whatever the hell you feel like. Thursdays are the days you DO current events cause they are due friday.

But there are losers who do it an extra day early...
Teacher: "Class do not forget your current event this week!"
Student: "Don't worry I'm special and did it a day early!"

Current Events 

Share definition Flag
Board #400 on GameFAQs. Now the most active social board. Users generally fall into at least one of the following groups:

CEgals - Female posters. Rarely post anything interesting, but hey, they're girls. Lyke omg! Often followed around by white knights (users who love them) and black knights (users who hate them).

Gimmick users - Users who only post about _one_ thing. Sometimes their username will reflect that. They are known to go through great lengths to somehow fit that one thing into a completely unrelated conversation, but if they're feeling lazy, or just suck at what they do, they'll simply spam topic after topic of their own.

CE"vets" - Posters who also frequent CEchat on AIM. Generally act condescending, but in reality they somehow find joy in being considered annoying as hell by the general populace. Go figure.

Experts - Make a topic about economics, politics, or religion, and these guys will swarm in, preaching from their soapboxes like they all have graduate degrees in said subjects. Ironically, most tend to be high school-aged.

Most other people on CE fit the profile of your typical internet forum user; white suburban kid between 14 and 19, loves bands like Sum 41 and Rise Against, nerdy, and a little bitter.
Current Events - The land of snobbery, spam, and obnoxious picture-signatures.

Current Events (CE)

A board on GameFAQs with actual, intelligent discussions, unlike Life, the Universe, and Everything. You don't need a high user level to get in, but you can't get in initally either.
I asked how to play Thirteen on CE, it worked; I asked on LUE, no one responded.

12 step recovery jargon referring to someone new who talks about how great life is, now that they're sober. Usually meaning that the person is out of touch with reality.
The new guy seems pretty happy for a dude who has no job, no money and no family. He must be on a pink cloud.

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

- Just forget about it, you don't have enough SkyPesos to fly anywhere.
