homebrew channel
an awesome softmod made by hackwii that allows you to run apps such as emulators, music players, dvd players, and even games burnt to a disk. at first the twilight hack was needed to download it (which is a modified zelda save file) but with the wii menu 4.2 update, that doesn't work and you now have to use smash stack (which is a glitch in customers stages in super smash bros. brawl) the homebrew channel ca also be used to downgrade your wii to previous system menus, but this is highly discouraged for it can brick your wii if you accidentally update it.
person #1: you gonna get the homebrew channel?
person #2: i don't know can't it mess up your wii?
person #1: the chances are very low and if you didn't update to 4.2 it is almost impossible!! you don't even have to open up your wii which means its still under warranty. the best part is all you need is super smash bros. brawl, an sd card, an internet connection, and a wii (of course)
person #2: wow that sounds great!

History Channel
A once respected cable channel. Many years ago it was a serious source of historical information and now it is Reality TV, Pseudoscience, and Pseudohistory. Actual history has been abandoned for ratings.
I learned everything I know about History from the History channel. I learned that aliens helped humans build the Pyramids, The Bible contains a secret code which can be deciphered using a computer, monsters are real, and Nostradamus predicted 9/11.

Striver
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.
