Kunta

The stereotypical term pasted on to extremely intelligent college kids. A kunta: a.) Is lazy b.) Does better in life regardless of laziness c.) Rarely attends classes but d.) Still beats the curve. Being a Kunta elevates your social status to a near aristocracy. Everybody around envies how easily you handle life, thus turning the term "Kunta" to a derogatory term to everybody except the kunta him/herself. The following are artistic/intellectual attributes applicable to a kunta: 1.) Mean guitar skills 2.) Excessive knowledge of computers and their workings 3.) Unfathomable communication skills and 4.) Natural talent for any competitive activity in existence.

Dude, quit being such a Kunta... you're making me jealous.
