A friend that you hang out with, on some days can be right, but can really screw you over. However, fun to hang out with.

Example:
Guy 1: Hey man whats up with you?

Guy 2: Aw man, just nothing much, just feeling a bit down today.

Guy 1: Why?

Guy2 : aw man, my wallet was stolen.

Guy 1: By who?

Guy 2: My buddy Jack. He is a great guy to hang out with, but can be a bit of a Perrieous sometimes.

Guy 1: Did you get your wallet back?

Guy 2: Yeah, but he used all the money on Snickers and A & W.

Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants

the fourth book in the Captain Underpants series written by Dav Pilkey
Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants is the best book.
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

SkyPesos 

Delta SkyMiles, also known as SkyPesos, is the frequent flyer program of Delta Airlines. It has a very poor value and hard to use.
- I'm trying to book an award flight to Paris, but I only have 70,000 SkyPesos
- Just forget about it, you don't have enough SkyPesos to fly anywhere.
