Them fools thought I was a racist, but I was just "pulling a Jussie Smollet". Isn't it ironic, when a jackass gets away with "pulling a Jussie Smollett"?

A wealthy homosexual black man that paid a couple of brothers from Nigeria to fake a hate crime against him for being wealthy homosexual and black. He paid to have the brothers insult and slander his employer that gave him his wealth as well as lunging homosexual and racial hate speech which were lies he spoon-fed to the nation in multiple interviews and social media posts claiming the "perpetrators" were in alliance with the then current 2019 presidential regime by dropping their political slogan "MAGA" during the "hate crime." He managed to fool many people in power and activists including but not limited to: BLM, LGBTQ, President Joseph Biden, Vice-President Kamala Harris, Bernie Sanders member of the Senate, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez member of the House of Representatives, Lori Lightfoot Mayor of Chicago, even the 45th President Donald Trump... all of the listed people consoled and supported Jussie after the "attack." His political and publicity fueled hoax was thwarted by the Chicago Justice system thanks to the police noticing Jussie refusing to drop a Subway sandwich all while "being beaten and having bleach being poured on him. " Many people would've dropped said sandwich seeking refuge during such an attack but him having the sandwich unscathed was suspicious to the police and warranted further investigation that paved a road to uncover the enormous lie.
Lying about being a victim of a hate crime publicly to gain publicity and push one's own narrative.

In 2016, Marcus Owens; a Naperville, IL resident and a freshman from the University of Iowa pulled a "Jussie Smollett."

Owens went on multiple news interviews claiming he'd been a victim of a racist fueled physical attack by three white men while hurling racist slurs as he was walking home from a bar. However, after reviewing surveillance footage and talking to multiple witnesses, the Iowa City Police Department and the FBI determined that Owens was involved in multiple altercations the night of April 30 and going into May 1; he'd been the cause of these altercations.

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.

Utility beer 

Share definition Flag
Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
