Oooo. Oooo.

Even better than "Pledged: Can You Keep a Secret" -- "Pledged: Dying to Tell."

Then it really could work as a double feature.

Did you really? No, there's something wrong with my eyes.

Learning from MysticCat Jr, are we? How's he doing, haven't had any good stories about him lately. Mariana walked into her brother's room yesterday morning, looked over the side of the bassinet and said "Hey, lil buddy!". Good stuff.

Don't forget that they need a group of girls willing to get their fat circled and girls who are going to have the purging contests in the bathrooms. Plus they need an older man to play the plumber who comes in & unclogs the pipes since they are clogged up with vomit. :rolleyes:

That movie should be retitled "Dying To Punch Hilary Swank in the Horse Face."

Maybe MysticCat Jr. has been giving me "Welcome Back, Kotter" Flashbacks. Just call him "Little Arnie Horshack."

OMG that movie made me laugh! I remember the chick from Scrubs was in it. The funniest part of the movie was when they had to eat the eggshells. Wouldn't they have smelled the eggs and felt that they were not glass before putting it their mouths?

Oh and the circling the fat thing... that girl did have a big booty.

I wonder if oscar winner Hillary Swank puts the movie on her resume. If I remember correctly, didn't she also do a movie where she was anorexic and she wore overalls all the time?

Ooooooo, I love that movie. IS that the one where they had to stand on the table and actives drew on them with magic markers to point out their physical flaws??? :rolleyes:

I am a cheesy "lifetime" movie addict. :D

What? Non-Greeks don't pregame? Non-Greeks don't strive to be thin and perfect and have the perfect girlfriends? Non-Greeks don't sneak boys/girls into their dorms/apartments, etc.? It really makes me angry. And the fact that parents think these are accurate descriptions is even worse.

Goes back to the fact that the girl isn't a journalist...she's an opportunist. I'm not buying that she had this burning passion to find out about greek life for the good of the world...she sat down and found something likely to give her sensational stories that she could mass market and viola. I'd give it to her for being a good money maker if she didn't try to act like this is a serious piece of work.

Here's the thing...I have no doubt the stuff she writes about goes on. But I do know that honest to effin' god I've never seen massive eating disorders (and this is going for all five NPCs and the three NPHCs), there is no drug room, no one gets hazed, and being a slut isn't glorified by anyone, much less the girls. A real journalist would have done the actual research. This isn't the only campus that's so calm...I know mass vomiting and whoring out make interesting stories, but it doesn't represent the whole. Fact. And I am TIRED of defending the greeks here because she chose NOT to balance herself (because inserting the random sentence saying "Well not EVERYONE does this" does not equal balance).

WE ARE SO THERE. :)

Sign us up!

"Dear Michaels Goldwyn Company,

I know a group of wonderful women who would be willing to do coke and leave scandalous away messages on their AIM if you give them brownies behind the sorority house. Ergo, they would be perfect for your movie, Pledged. Please consider this our begging of a role in this honest and real life movie (will you be calling it a documentary?).

Love,
Sorority Girls Everywhere
