I Was There 

Share definition Flag
Looking back upon my life
And the places that I've been
Pictures, faces, girls I've loved
I try to remember when
Faded memories on the wall
Some names I have forgotten
But each one is a memory I
Look back on so often
I look into the past
I want to make it last
I was there
Looking back what I have done
There's lots more life to live
At times I feel overwhelmed
I question what I can give
But I don't let it get me down
Or cause me too much sorrow
There's no doubt about who I am
I always have tomorrow
Looking back upon my life
Faded memories on the wall
Looking now at who I am
I don't let it get me down
Looking back upon my life
And the places that I've been
Pictures, faces, girls I've loved
I try to remember when
But I don't let it get me down
Or cause me too much sorrow
There's no doubt about who I am
I always have tomorrow
I look into the past, and I wanna make it last. I Was There, I was there
I Was There mug front
Get the I Was There mug.

OK, so, you going to bring him back then. You're not the president that just does whatever, therefore, you're not going to just leave him there. I mean, AFTER you make those fucking tech retards pay me but yeah. That is what the words you said meant just there.
Trump "If I was the president that just wanted to do anything... I would just leave him there."

Hym "Ok... You see how you're trying to just leave him there, right? Like, you're claiming you're not the guy and then you are doing the thing that is commensurate with being the guy... So, bring him back. Pay me first AND NOT UNTIL but... There you go! You said you'd do the thing."

The name of the anime I would write.
There was no Demon Lord to defeat so I created AI and took over the world! Now streaming on Crunchyroll! This is not a real anime... Yet. But it is a real thing I actually did. AND! There's no dialogue in this one. It's just this. Crazy right? Usually there's dialogue or, like, a skit or something but nope... Just this thing I'm saying..."

Nope, maybe it was the title length? Like if I make a super long title it somehow makes the site think that there is a problem with the server and it stops the post from going through... Ok. I'll do that now. Super-long title no justsu!!!

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
