downside watson 

Share definition Flag
When you and a girl of your choosing decide to perform acts of illicit behavior such as sexual intercourse, oral sex, heavy petting, or ultimate frisbee and decide that you want to take things to a more serious level such as "hardcore" as kids now a days describe. Make sure you're good to go and insert your erect penis into her most deserving vagina. After pounding the vag like a champ in a romantic place such as the back of camry or a bedroom with her father walking in, hit her from behind as she is on all fours. Tenderly extend both arms as you are in the act of sexual intercourse and grab both of her arms and use them as handle bars to tear it up. The girl at this point should be in a tripod position, thus the downside watson.
"Gee Matt I wish I drove girls crazy like you!"
"Well Corey we all can't be gods of sex, some people just sick dick at fucking pussy."
"Haha oh Matt you sure are swell! Didn't you take a girl home last night? Did you rail her? Give her the ol' downside watson?"
"Squirrely udders."

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
