Something that doesn’t happen to my definitions even though they all meet the community guidelines and I usually try to put definitions for words that aren’t on this website yet so yes, they are unique.
Person 1: urban dictionary didn’t publish my definition again
Person 2: urban dictionary sucks

Publish Cheating 

Publish Cheating is the act of adding a word to the Urban Dictionary and then editing the Urban Dictionary until you see the word you submitted and publish it, however, publish cheating does not always guarantee the word you submitted will be published. I have currently editted over 900 words in the hopes of getting my definitions published, and it has worked for most of them.
I sincerly doubt my definition of batterball would have been published had I not been publish cheating at the time.

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
