Scrubs Moment 

Share definition Flag
When a lighthearted comedy or TV show suddenly turns unnecessarily serious and/or introspective.
Well-dressed white people at a trendy bar/club:

Jenny - "I'm having so much fun! Let's all do a shot!"
Johny - "We're all so pretty and happy! That sounds great!"
Janice - "It's so important to live for today! I just found out I have a terminal disease. And my house burned down."
Jenny - "Wow! What a Scrubs Moment! Hopefully it will be resolved after this commercial break!"

Scrubs Moment 

Share definition Flag
1. When something in reality causes someone to remember/think about a moment/event in the TV show 'Scrubs'.

2. When someone zones out, tilting their head to the right slightly and pointing their eyes up and to the left - like the character John Dorian in the TV show 'Scrubs'.
Example 1:
Person 1 is talking about their friend who is inseperable from their partner. Person 2 then instantly goes off into a daydream thinking that the couple is like Turk and Carla from Scrubs and remembers the episode where they are depicted as a two-headed being.
This would then be followed by Person 2 saying "I just had a Scrubs moment!" and they would describe their thoughts to Person 1.

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
