Damn it!

Share definition Flag
A phrase that has been popularized by the critically-acclaimed TV series "24," who's main character, Jack Bauer (Kiefer Sutherland), uses the phrase as his trademark. A vulgar phrase a person says when they are angry or frustrated. Also spelled "damnit" or "dammit."
(Based off of a scene from 24's Season/Day 6-Episode 2)

Jack Bauer: Mr. President, you don't want to kill Assad! Abu Fayed is the one behind these attacks!

President Wayne Palmer: I'm sorry, Jack, but our current evidence suggests that this is all the doing of Hamri Al-Assad. You do not have any conclusive evidence that Fayed is behind this.

Jack Bauer: Sir, I just escaped from Fayed! He told me that and I refused to die for nothing so I broke free to save Assad!

President Wayne Palmer: I'm sorry, Jack. Truly I am.

Jack Bauer: Damn it!

Another example of how idiots spell "dammit." You only say "damn it" if you are saying something like, "Damn it all to hell."
No example needed.

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
