The Internet Hyena's Grasp 

Share definition Flag
The definition of either:

1) The Internet overinflating a trifle and milking it for every last ounce of content
2) Everyone and their gramma taking a current event and making a video about it

The word comes from the YouTuber W3TB who compares these actions to Hyenas ganging up on weak animals for food.
Pyrocynical was really ripped to shreds by The Internet Hyena's Grasp.

Hunter's First Law of the Internet

Share definition Flag
Within 10 minutes of any online forum exchange, some twat will always write "Don't feed the troll".

The twat in question is always either:

1) Some silly old turd who has been using the Internet since 1993 and thinks there are still only about 12 people on it.

2) Some clueless middle-class mum with too much time on her hands and to whom everyone else in the world (apart from her children, Jake and Florence) is a "troll".
SeanHunter: "I think the constant rolling news format of the TV media tends to turn serious cases like the McCann kidnapping or the Venables prison recall into circuses...."

Twat: "Don't feed the troll, people"

SeanHunter: "Ah there it is... Hunter's First Law of the Internet. And in record time, you twat."

Girl on the Internet Syndrome 

Share definition Flag
An affliction that causes some female internet users to play the sexpot or drama queen once they figure out that they are practically the only girls at a forum. Sufferers will make nonstop flirty comments , continually bring up their bra size, and make fellatio jokes. Inevitably, a male member will go too far and offend the girl (typically by asking for nude pics or sexual services), leading to much online outrage and drama.

Jason: it sounds like someone has a bad case of Girl on the Internet Syndrome.

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

2. Billy hate drafted Peyton Manning because he was the only good quarterback left and he knew Sam had been planning on drafting him.
