The Boardwalk 

Where the scene/emo kids hang out, smoking and drinking, there is usually at least 2 or more police standing there and arresting people. The boardwalk is usually at a shopping center, but no one shops, they just stand there on their hiptops, trying to be cool.
Like omg, lets tell my parents that we're going to the mall and actually just hang out on the boardwalk, get magget and smoke a packet of cigarettes.

The Boardwalk Effect 

When you are at a party or gathering of some type and upon arrival you notice the girls aren't good looking. Then after a prolonged period of time at the party or gathering, your standards at that party fall and the least ugly chicks start looking good.

Can also be when you are at a gathering with not that many girls there and just because there's not that many chicks at the party, the ones there start looking good when normally they're not that great or grenades.

Came from a visit to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk where most of the girls there are fat and ghetto. After a few hours there your standards fall and they start looking good.
*at a party*
Bro 1 (11:00pm)- Man this party is kinda wack, the chicks here are not fine.
Bro 2 (11:00pm)- Yeah I feel you man, whatever its early i'm sure it will get better.

Bro 1 (12:30am)- Dude some of these chicks are starting to look good...
Bro 2 (12:30am)- Yeah I know, we need to get the hell out of here, its the Boardwalk Effect.

stalking my life on the boardwalk

When a person has latched onto you and tracks your every move, to the point that you can't leave your house without being paranoid about the person mysteriously popping up and interrogating you.

Origin: The episode of Jersey Shore when Pauly D's girl kept following him around as he hung out with friends on the boardwalk, and then called the house 3 times in a row to find out where he was.
1)
Girl: "Why didn't you call me last night? Where were you? Who were you with? I called you 3 times and you never called me back and I KNOW you got my messages!"
Boy: "OK, seriously, you are stalking my life on the boardwalk right now."

2)
Boy: "Hey, so you're single now? You dated for what, 7 months? And your ex transferred schools?"
Girl: "How did you know all that?"
Boy: "I checked your Facebook."
Girl: "Could you stop stalking my life on the boardwalk?"

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.

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
Person 1: Dave, did you bring along those hazy craft IPA's so we could drink while cleaning Lyle's pool?
Person 2: Nope. I just have a bunch of utility beer that Steve dumped on me. Good enough for this. It is only 10:30 a.m.
