Marylande 

Share definition Flag
Usually a girl - not to be confused with the Mid-Atlantic state, Maryland. Commonly mispronounced as "Mary-lawn-day", people with this name will become frustrated with always having to correct you and have parents that think they are "trendy" or "hip". If you have this name you may become friends with people with awkward names such as La-a (La-dash-a) and Lawasha/Ladrya. Marylande's will usually shorten their name to Mary or use a childhood nickname for simplicity.

Maryline 

Share definition Flag
1. Maryline is a woman who sets her own definition - a woman of power, principled, individualistic, self-conscious, eccentric, and creative. When in love, an incorrigible romantic, a miserable poet; in a fit of fury, her voice echoed like a damning curse of an ancient goddess; when happy, she strolls in pride and everything else considered nuisance by any standard, looks like a harmless ant.

2. Someone who holds and practices a very sophisticated, transcendental view towards life. Her way of life is a matter of complete freedom within the boundary that she won't hurt others nor set anyone in a cage. Within her circle, you won't feel the circle: you'd feel unconstrained and at ease being yourself.

3. A divine name. The spelling "Maryline" is a rare variation of "Marilyn", elaborated from "Mary" which means Star of the Sea (latin: Stella Maris) - an ancient title of the Virgin Mary.
Example: I know what kind of person this is: she is a complete Maryline!

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

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.
