After he paced back and forth on the porch for the first 10 minutes of the conversation, Trevor phone-wandered aimlessly around the perimeter of the living room- softly kicking the floorboards as he strolled.

Phone Wanker 

Share definition Flag
Someone with an overwhelming obsession with their phone, phone related apps and equipment. Someone with a new phone who is generally a boring person with nothing relevant or interesting to talk about. Someone with an aggressive need to show you their phone and tell you about its uninteresting attachments.
Look at my new phone, it has an app that comes up with interesting phone related conversation starters. Check out how much music my phone has! Why would I want to sleep with you when, instead we can talk about how much memory my phone has. I have no personality but my phone can be used as a metal detector. I am a complete Phone Wanker!

Phone Wanker 

Share definition Flag
Someone who attends a live music event and insists on filming the performance on their phone instead of enjoying the atmosphere. Exactly what these dipshits do with the footage after the event is unclear but it's likely it just sits on their phone, acting as a reminder of the performance they attended in person but largely watched via a 5 inch screen. The Phone Wanker is further characterised by the person filming the event with their phone in a vertical/portrait orientation, thus rendering the footage unusable for any purpose other than viewing it on their phone. Sadly all attempts to capture the event for prosperity (or perhaps bragging rights) are rendered useless anyway since the diminutive microphone on the phone is inadequate when faced with the venues high powered speaker stack.
I went to see Rag n Bone man in concert last week. Amazing gig but I was surrounded by Phone Wankers who insisted on filming it!

Wanker phone

Mobile phone. Not commonly used today, but was heavily used in the early days of the device. As the prices of phones dropped the term fell out of favour; another case of Tall poppy syndrome?
Look at that guy talking on his wanker phone; is he that important?!

Phone Book Wanker 

Share definition Flag
A waster who calls random numbers from the phone book, usually late at night, for their own amusement.

Very different from a briefcase wanker or buswanker but remarkably bawbagish.
-phone rings late at night and is answered by person who is not a phone book wanker-
silence!
"...Who are you and why are you calling me?"
"eeehhrmm.... who ur you??"
"Not telling you!"
"well yer a wanker then!"

Both parties are aware who the real wanker is, but only one is enough of a wanker to actually state that the person receiving the call is a wanker.
Said wanker - the phone book wanker - will then get bored and either do what wankers do best or go back to his (probably sticky) phonebook to find another hapless victim.

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
