scheißekopf 

Share definition Flag
"scheiße" means shit;
"kopf" means head.

Each word by itself makes sense in German; the combination of these two words does not make sense.

English speakers put these two words together to make a new word, "shithead". This works in English. Doing so in German, however, does not work.

Just ask any German-speaking person: they'll tell you "scheißekopf" makes no sense in German.
To avoid sounding like a dummkopf, don't use the contrived and inaccurate term, scheißekopf.

Scheiskopf 

Share definition Flag
Pseudo german. A compound of "Scheisse"(=shit) and "Kopf"(=head) that forms the literal translation of the popular english insult "shithead". Doesn't really work in german, because "Scheiss-" is an equivalent of "fucking ...", so "Scheisskopf" would mean something like "fucking head".
"Scheissekopf" isn't an alternative, it doesn't work at all.
The boys looked up some words in the dictionary and came up with "scheissekopf".

Striver 

Share definition Flag
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
