Breaking News Just In

A brand new epidemic of Manus has been discovered to be spreading around the globe via electronic devices such as cellular phones and other portable communication accessories.

The virus takes the form of an e-mail or text (SMS) message, and contains two deadly words: “Text” and “Manus” The message may also contain other words as well, trying to disguise its true form, but it still has the same effect no matter how many letters are displayed.

In order to get rid of the Text Manus, (Codenamed TM) you must forward the message in question onto another contact, then delete the original TM as soon as possible. The same rules apply as normal Manus, you are protected once you have passed the TM on, but if it falls into your hands, it has disastrous effects. The only difference between TM and palm-slapping Manus is that there is no way of blocking an incoming transmission
Phone: Beep Beep
User: Hmm, I have a message from an unknown number, let me see what it says

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
