Glory Whore 

1. One who never lets it be forgotten who did all the work to get something done.

2. Someone so starved for attention they will go as far as stealing all the credit only having done some or none of the work.
1. Jan: "We put the baby's toy together today"
Beth: (clearing her throat) "Uh...we?"
Jan: "Sorry...your sister put it together"
Pappy D: "Glory Whore!"

2. Pappy D coined this phrase, but I am submitting it because I am a total Glory Whore!

social "just us" glory whore 

A person who only views social issues from their side and always tries to get all the attention for themselves and not the issue.
Ceci would not shut up about how the social injustice of racism negatively impacted her commute to work and how she has worked to make things better for everyone. She was viewed as a social "just us" glory whore by those she claimed to defend but refused to give a ride to on her way to work - she wouldn't let them in her car.

Whore's Glory 

Essentially bragging rights within any social circle that a female gets when she successfully has an intimate encounter with a much sought-after and desired male
Since all the girls had a crush on Mike, Brittany got the whore's glory when she finally hooked up with him.

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
