brainspike 

Share definition Flag
Verb: the act of watching a particular series (usually but not always anime) of episodes or movies in a row.
(especially the ENTIRE series at once)
Noun: the series to be watched.

Originated from Eau Claire, Wisconsin. It was created as a more polite/useable form of mindfuck (which means the same thing) by the local university's anime organization. Apparently watching many hours of anime episodes straight does something to you in the head.
Verb: Remember when we brainspiked Eva last month?

Noun: The brainspike starts at 6 and ends four days later.

a general term to describe when your brain is engaged, but you aren't getting anywhere.

a) where you can't make a decision ... usually because there is too much information to process

b) where you can't even get a grip on a problem because it is beyond the scope of your brain.
Diane - I slept like crap last night.

Mike - Oh? Too bad. Was it from gut rot from that jalepeno shrimp or brainspin from your BCP exercises at work??

Diane - Definitely brainspin. I just can't get a handle on the whole BCP thing. It is sooooo complicated.

Mike - Why don't you just past it off to your boss? Let him handle it?

Diane - Are you kidding!?!? He's such a PHB, he tries to divide by zero. This would brainspin his head right off his shoulders.

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
