wikifarming 

Share definition Flag
Using Wikipedia to unearth tidbits of knowledge for the purpose of bringing them up in conversation, in a despondent effort to make oneself seem smarter.
Typical subjects of wikifarming include theoretical physics, trivia from sitcoms, basic psychology, the works of Nostradamus, Shakespeare's tragedies, statistics from practically any organized sport (most often football or baseball), the Renaissance, and pretty much anything that could make one appear more knowledgeable in front of the right people. Usually fails.
A. "I was doing some research last night, and I found out that any four-dimensional object in four-dimensional space will cast a three-dimensional shadow. Turns out, most physicists agree that little, if anything, can be gained scientifically from assuming the fourth dimension to be time, but rather as another spatial axis, which is how..."

B. "Someone's been wikifarming."

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
