Condition in which a person (usually a pirate) suffers severe tenderness in left, right, or both peg legs. Some common terms for this affliction are "stub-ache" and "nub-rash".
Bilbo Stubbins and his companion Chicken Nubbins hobbled along in excruciating agony due to their pegis-tenderitis. "I told you twice boy to buy a gosh darned Terry Fox leg and now see what you gone and done" yelled Big Momma Haggis as they continued on their not so merry way.

benderitis 

Share definition Flag
1. When you catch a case of the bends (being a bender*,hockey type).
3. You can't skate, shoot, or pass; you virtually are playing at the worse possible level.
2. It is very hard to get rid of it and the only file on record is from one, Bryan Lowe. And he states that the only way to get rid of the bends is to jerk off a lot and don't play hockey for two weeks.
-You don't want to catch benderitis, a few players of the Midwest tornados had it and never got rid of it.
-Benderitis will get you benched and if you catch it long enough possibly kicked off the team.
- I have caught benderitis and I couldn't shoot or skate, very bad situation but thankfully I only had it for one game.

Tenuritis 

Share definition Flag
1. An affliction that disrupts economies of academic production that is most commonly observed amongst academics who have received tenure and give no fucks about 'outcomes', 'metrics' and basically getting any measurable shit done. Not to be confused with laziness or incompetence, or even aloofness; the causes are usually benevolent, but symptoms manifest towards early career researchers that have never known the luxury of free thought. Secondary symptoms can include,

1a. The affliction contributes to bizarre and sometimes non-sensical claims from research data that may, or may not exist, but have to be argued against anyways.

1b. The affliction may create relations where tenured academics end up peer-reviewing their own work through various boards, committees and editorial guidance to ensure their old ideas continue to circulate and are counted towards publication schemes, even if they're not sure what this means.
"'Did we get that paper in for publication on time?' 'No, prof. x Tenuritis' was acting up so no one gets the publication point'"
"My work with you shows that I'm interested and willing to collaborate on this project, however my tenuritis prohibits me from creating outcomes that will help you secure employment"
"I can't wait to get Tenuritis! I'm going to collage the shit out of some landscape paintings and then have my board buy them up and then BOOM - I'm Bric-à-bracking my way to head of school!"

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
