The Lumineers 

Share definition Flag
ANOTHER indie pop rock band. Mainstream hipsters like them. Overplayed on every Alternative radio station in the US. You will not be listening to them 5 years from now. They aren't the worst band of all time, but they are definitely nothing more than mediocre.
First time i heard "Ho Hey" by The Lumineers on the radio, i said, "wow i bet these guys wear stupid little hipster hats" NAILED IT.

Amazing american band. (Indie Folk / Folk Rock)
Composed by Wesley Schultz (lead vocals, guitar), Jeremiah Fraites (drums, percussion) and Neyla Pekarek (cello), the three of them astonishing artists, musicians, singers & composers.

Their songs have meaningful lyrics, with profound themes about life (& death), love, hopes and regrets, and many others.

Most of people tend to only know the hit "Ho Hey" but they should definitely take a look at all the other songs of the band & mostly at the stories their songs tell.

Among the best songs by The Lumineers, we find: 'Stubborn Love', 'Dead Sea', 'Ophelia', 'Angela', 'Cleopatra' and 'Sleep on the Floor' (the clips of those 3 last songs tell the story of the same woman, and it's amazing)

Few people knows that they actually composed the song 'Hanging Tree' for the movie Hunger Games.
- Did you go the concert of the Lumineers yesterday?
- Yes, and that was awesome. Their voices are as great in real life as in the studio versions, and they do everything by themselves! What great musicians!

Luminert Scale 

Share definition Flag
The scale that can be used for giving scores to basically everything, from TV- shows to level of comedy. Most of the things on the luminert scale are ranked with a high, if not the highest score - 10/10. The way of selecting the fitting score is simple: you just have to determen if one part of your category has some kind of value, and you don't have to worry about the rest. If that is true, your "thing" is a perfect 10/10, and if not, then you would give it a 9/10. Scores lower than 9 are non-existent.
Darijan: "Kakegurui was an awful show, but it had great art so it must be a 10/10 on the luminert scale!"
Your mom lol: "Yes, Demon Slayer as well!"

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
