shart house 

A restaurant, or fine eating establishment which begs you to question the risk/reward of their deliciousness of food vs. the time it takes for you to completely shit your pants after eating. "Shart Houses," usually refer to "Short Order," restaurants where the food is questionably prepared by often unsavory employees; however, the food tastes so good you don't care if you blow your o-ring and completely ruin your trousers.
Example 1: "Let's go eat at John's restaurant. That place is a REAL shart house."

Conversation:
Friend 1: "All that's open now is that shart house, John's."
Friend 2: "Fuck it, let's go."
Friend 1: "We can order a bowl rattler special."

Sharehouse 

A place to live if you want to encounter selfish and inconsiderate strangers who make loud noises at any hour of the night, don’t do any cleaning, hog the kitchen and living room, will be on phone calls all hours of the night, make mess and expect you to clean it, will use the couch as their personal clothing line, steal your milk and have their drunk friends running around the house naked. The other occupants apparently don’t know the definition of the word share
“Living with my family can be so annoying sometimes”
Well it’s a lot better than living in a sharehouse”
“That’s true”

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

- 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.
