Gay fringe 

Share definition Flag
Typically an emo hairstyle, gay fringes are lengthy, thick pieces of hair that dangle over one, or sometimes both, of any given emo's eyes. Gay fringes can vary in length, colour and style, however their length is usually somewhere between eye level and chin level, regardless of the length of the rest of the emo's hair. Their style is usually just ‘the flop’, as most emos are too depressed to do anything else with their hair, which explains why you could fry chips on most emos’ hair. Gay fringes are chiefly black, but can be dyed all sorts of exotic colours to convey the given emo's 'creativity'. Some emos even like to put accessories on their gay fringes, in order to 'jazz them up', if you will. Such additions include, but are not limited to: sequins, stickers, safety pins, glue, jelly babies and badges. Some 'rebel' emos even pierce their gay fringe and go about decorating it that way. Many emos also like to gel their gay fringe so that it sticks to their face, therefore causing them to lose 40-60% of their visual field, contract conjunctivitis and develop acne, which causes the emo to want to cover even more of their face. As you can see, this will continue in a vicious circle until the entire face of the emo is shrouded by hair.

Gay fringes are nearly always straight, because this way they flop into the emo's eyes easier and look more 'scene'...And of course, most emos wear their gay fringe straight; remember, emos are so non-conformist that they all look exactly like each other! It may also be worth noting that gay fringes are unisex, although due to the fact that all emo girls and guys look the same anyway, this isn’t really an issue. Another important factor pertaining to gay fringes is that they all have a common denominator: they look gay. Whether this is because most emos ARE actually gay/ bisexual/ pansexual/ asexual/ lesbian/ vegetarian, and they are trying to illustrate this through their homosexual haircuts remains to be seen...

Regrettably, gay fringes are a growing trend. In order to attempt to control this homo-friendly-fringe pandemic (and in order for you to maintain any of your dignity), it would be advisable for you to refrain from getting your fringe gayed-up, no matter how tempting it may seem.

Finally, a word of advice: if someone you know has acquired this sickening hairstyle that we call a gay fringe (or a variation of), give them some acne cream and some eye drops; warn them about the transmission of Human Immunodeficiency Virus; burn their My Chemical Romance Cds and confiscate their razor.
"Dude, I'm, like, sooo depressed."
"Really? Me too, I just, like, got my fringe cut."
"Gee dude, that's, like, terrible."
"Yeah, my life feels, like, so empty now that I can, like, see again, dude."
"I, like, totally know what you mean, dude. I got my fringe, like, pierced today-"
"Whoa, that's really, like, deep and profound, dude."
"Yeah, but then the jelly baby earring, like, fell out. It was like my soul fell out in my hand. My life's, like, this eternal labyrinth of anguish."
"I have, like, no purpose. I'm gonna go, like, slit my wrists and then dye my gay fringe red with the blood."
"I'll go with you."

The gay ring finger is the middle finger on the right hand. It is symbolic for the right hand because guys do have the right to enter into marriage or civil union. The middle finger represents a sentiment reflected to those that oppose it. As opposed to the traditional left hand/ring finger of heterosexual marriage,it US uniquely for proud gay people.
Are they gay,their wedding bands are on their middle fingers?
Yeah,that’s the gay ring finger.

Gay middle finger

The gay middle finger is a term made famous by singer and ex- One Direction band member, Louis Tomlinson. He is one of the kindest and most angelic people on Earth, but he is also known as “The sass masta from Doncaster,” and he is known to frequently flip people off for a variety of reasons, whether it be lovingly towards his long term boyfriend, Harry Styles, sweetly towards his fans, or sarcastically towards his friend who, for some reason, likes avocado on toast for breakfast every morning. He has also given the middle finger to paparazzi, who were doing “their fooking job! That’s your job you fooking loosah.” When asked about his favorite phrase or mannerism in an interview, while boyfriend Harry Styles was in the background, Louis said “ehm I think the middle finger is a great one, you don’t even have to say anything. Erm, yeah, I think I’ll go with that.”
Fan 1: “Wow, I wish Louis Tomlinson would give me the gay middle finger while singing Kill My Mind.”
Fan 2: “That would be the best thing that ever happened to me.”

The single, errant finger that accidentally changes a harmless text message or e-mail into a raging, steamy, homosexual confession.
When texting Kevin, I intended to type "This song is fucking awesome!" However, he received "This dong is fucking awesome!" Looks like my gayfinger was doing all the typing.

Travis e-mailed me asking if Chris knew where we were. I replied: "I just massaged him." Thanks, gayfinger!

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
