Urbandoctrination 

Share definition Flag
Using Urbandictionary.com as a means to push a political, religious, philosophical, etc. ideal by either making derogatory terms against groups that disagree with your viewpoint or taking already-existing terminology and explaining it through a biased point of view.
Someone who does this is called an Urbandoctrinator.
Urbandoctrination is a serious issue on this website right now. While people are entitled to their opinions, Urbandictionary is a horrible website to exercise them, on the account that there is no comment system on which to discuss the terms and their definitions with the exception of a bare-bones like/dislike system that, again, fails in the presence of a popular opinion. This leads to a phenomenon where you can post an opinionated definition with very little means to challenge or argue its validity. It's a downward spiral that does very little but cause those with extreme opinions to double down. Not to mention that it just adds to the enormous issue of scaring people who aren't themselves invested in the topic away from having a civil discussion. Again, there's nothing wrong with having opinions, but there are far better platforms to voice them. And if you have time to write a 1000+ word definition on a topic you disagree with, you probably have time to do more productive things with your life.

"Let's see what the word of the day is today. Oh, it's just another thinly veiled half-assed jab at a subject that's been beaten to death already. Urbandoctrinators are killing this site."

urbandonation 

Share definition Flag
When you're browsing Urbandictionary.com and you see a very old definition that still has little or no votes. You then vote it up out of sympathy, much like in reality when you see a hobo without money.
Jack: Holy fuck, 3 years and this definition has 0 votes? Poor bastard...*gives urbandonation*

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
