Share definition Flag
When you are playing music at an open mic night and a complete stranger jumps on stage and starts playing with you without asking.

Highly annoying, especially if said stranger isn't nearly as good as they think they are.

A portmanteau word from "jam" and "ambush." Past tense "jambushed."
Roommate: Yo, how was open mic tonight?

Bleeding-heart songwriter: Lame. Got jambushed by this drunk harmonica player. Just leaped up without saying anything and started doing terrible, terrible things to my song.

Roommate: Sucks, dude.

jambushed

When one unwittingly opens a Myspace page and is surprised by the music loaded onto the profile. This usually occurs when the subject's speakers are at an above normal volume, but wasn't previously listening to something. Often a furious and spastic search ensues to close the offending page.

In some cases, a Myspace profile will have more than one song loaded onto it. The resulting sound can be described as no less than an aural car accident.
I opened her myspace up and went back to finish the e-mail I was writing, only to have a good 20 seconds of Fall Out Boy at an earsplitting volume.

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
