DO NOT LOOK AT US PLEASE

I REPEAT;

D O N O T L O O K A T U S I B E G O F Y O U
Someone with Scopophobia; "Please don't look at me, I have scopophobia and it really freaks me out."

Random person while directly looking at them; "Oh! I understand *name*! I have stage fright sometimes, it's fine being looked at, just get over it. "

Same person with Scopophobia; "Now you, dear mortal do not understand with how much capacity this has taken to affect me, now may you please not mention or look at me before I either have a panic/anxiety attack, or pull a SCP-096."

Fear of being governed by a fossil fuel or climate denier.

'ScoMo' is the nickname of the current Australian Prime Minister, a staunch supporter of coal mining and resister of science. Scomophobia has spread through the Australasian region as neighbouring nations look on in terror and disbelief. Scomophobics believe in science and have a profound emotional attachment to their home planet.
The Scomophobia was so serious the school children had to go on strike for 3 years.

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
