hyperbully 

Exaggerated pseudo-aggressive behavior dat does not actually make someone feel threatened or compelled to act against his will.
Just as with any type of deceptive joking, hyperbully should only be used if you know for sure dat da recipient of said posturing is aware dat you're "just shootin' blanks" --- many unfortunate incidents have occurred where someone had honestly but incorrectly thought dat someone was "being serious" when he'd blurted out a seemingly-ferocious/dictatorial statement, and so said concerned individual had been stressfully "traumatized for nothing". Plus of course, if overused, said phony-strongarming tactics can also backfire big time, in dat eventually others will assume dat you are always "crying wolf" whenever you act forceful or urgent, and so they may invalidly --- or even tragically --- ignore/disregard your outbursts on an isolated occasion when there actually is indeed a genuine reason to be concerned and take swift action, such as in an emergency.

Hyperpollyannity 

An extreme tendency to see the best in a person/phenomenon, or to turn a blind eye to the (potentially) negative aspects of a person/phenomenon.
His fervent belief that the US judicial system, as currently constituted, will act as an effective curb on the excesses of #47's administration, comes across as a case of hyperpollyannity.

Hyperpollyannity 

The extreme tendency to adopt a positive view/opinion of a person/phenomenon, or to turn a blind eye to the probable negative impact of a person/phenomenon.
Their view that the US judicial system, as currently constituted, will be sufficient to curb the excesses of #47's administration seems like a case of hyperpollyannity.

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
