Missunderstanding 

Share definition Flag
When a woman rejects information (especially from a man) based on the tone in which it is delivered. Related to mansplaining.
Let's get our egos out of the way of sharing accurate information: I'll stop mansplaining if you stop missunderstanding.

Even if what you're saying is correct, I'm still entitled to my missunderstanding.

Missunderstand 

Share definition Flag
A corollary to mansplain, to missunderstand is to ignore information based on the condescending tone of the explainer. While a missunderstanding sometimes results in a missed opportunity for a greater understanding, it is also a partially justified skepticism, since mansplainers are frequently overconfident in their beliefs. Just as mansplaining is now more broadly understood to not exclusively apply to men “splaining” to women, men can also missunderstand.
If you would stop mansplaining for a minute and talk to me like an intelligent adult, I would not be be in a better position to not missunderstand your valid points (assuming there are any).

Missunderstandings

A missunderstanding happens when a girl or unmarried woman (a miss) understands what a male is saying as mansplaining when they are simply being a person freely speaking.
Hey, you are missunderstanding what I'm saying.
I'm only voicing my opinion, take it or leave it, no need to reduce me to such absurdity.

Missunderstandings done by calling me a mansplainer is only polarizing.

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

Utility beer 

Share definition Flag
Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
