Hammered Dog Shit 

(Abbreviated sometimes as HDS) In the field of welding, this refers to a weld that's so bad, it looks like your dog Scruffy ate Taco Bell that was 3 weeks old and had been sitting out in the sun all day, and took a shit in the joint of the weld. Originally used to describe bad stick welds, but it applies to any method (MIG, TIG, flux-core, oxyfuel, etc). Depending upon the quality of the HDS, it can be nearly impossible to grind down.
1. Billy: "Hey Jim, I decided to cap that weld you've been working on"
Jim: "You jackass! You just laid some hammered dog shit all over my stack of dimes!"

2. The CWI didn't even bother X-raying the welds that Billy made, he could spot that grade-A hammered dog shit from a mile away.

3. It took Cletus nearly an hour on the oxyacetylene torch to wash away the hammered dog shit that Jim squirted out using his new spool gun.

4. Cletus thought he had some dimes to post to weldporn and weldernation, but it was really just HDS.

5. It doesn't matter if you're AWS certified, we all lay down some HDS from time to time.

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
