Wow! It never seems to amaze me how people will feign wit to sneak in a sly comment. Bruh KAPPAtivating, keep on conversating :D. This isn't your dissertation, nor should it be treated as such. As far as small minds are concerned, smaller minds aren't capable of reading the initial post to see the purpose of this thread. I'm not here to discuss people I intended to see if this claim was common place or remotely legitimate. PERIOD! Slick @$$ half-wit comments...NOT NEEDED.

It is very much so alive. Thank you for asking. Today I actually paid for an old lady's groceries at Publix, I brought my wife flowers just because, and I complimented a co-worker on her hair (at least I think is was hers). It is alive and in it's prime. Sometimes you gotta pull out da box-cutter on dez fools and get to cutting (GC does dat).

Thanks Bruh...for a minute I thought we had turned this into Akeelah and the Bee! I didn't know if the thread was about the word or the shirts. Nice to know how people hang on to your every word:D

^^^I guess this statement was directed at me, so I will reply. Is there really a need to take offense to my comment? It seems as if you felt personally attacked. Please correct me if I am wrong. Futhermore, the purpose of the "comment" was to remind those who have wandered away from the initial post you spoke of to reposture their ill will and/or worthless rhetoric. Nothing more, nothing less.

Secondly, is there really a need to curse? I am a grown man, same as you-respect me. I am sure that your education affords you the vocabulary to accurately articulate your thoughts in a social forum that supports and maintains constructive candor and perspective-taking. In other words, when you speak...expect any and everything from your audience.

As far as the quote goes, if more people focused on ideas...this thread would be void. Just my thoughts...

ARTIC-U-LATE,

My reply was not focus solely toward you, as a matter fact if there was any ill thought in my reply it was focused on Bamboozled. I just used your quote (or rather the quote you quoted) to address the asinine comments being made.

As far as me cursing, @$$ is not a curse word. It's a combination of symbols that resembles the alphabetical spelling of a word that is seen as obscene by some. It's like saying heck, darn, or shucks. Now if a coy reference to an improper word is enough to ruffle the feathers of so many, so be it. Grow up. Like my niece says, "it's in the Bible.”

ARTIC-U-LATE your response was well written and your points were clear. Thanx!

Marquise1911,
Are you upset with my Soror Bamboozled because she told you that "conversate" isn't a word or because she found the thread to be ridiculous?

Either way, she was correct about "conversate" and she's not the only one who feels this thread is ridiculous.

I am so mad you said party people. LOL

Anybody ever think about how converse and converse are spelled the same but sound different? That's called something.....

I just checked....they're called heteronyms.

And all heteronyms are also homographs -- spelled the same, but have different meanings.

All the words I have used in this post are real. I swear.

marquise1911 04-27-2006 12:29 PM

Thanx!<--not a real word!

I'll write that down and use it later. Sounds intelligent.

What is a homophone then?

I promised to keep you posted. The Deltas crossed 38 lovely ladies last week. The line has been drawn in the sand and the war of words and T-shirts has begun. First let me say how disgusted and juvenile I think the whole thing is. But now there are pink and green t-shirts on campus saying "AKA serving tea since 1908." And at their probate they chanted, and I quote, "You spend all your time combing your nappy hair. You look in the mirror but the beauty isn't there. While you were coming out, we were on set. I know all my founders. Do you know yours yet???" See this would be nothing if they dissed everyone, but no, it was exclusive. BUT WAIT!!! It doesn't end. Now the AKA's have t-shirts saying "The Phirst, The Phinest, and Also Financial...How about you?" This is a deliberate jab at the Deltas who were inactive for the most part because of a lack of financial members. I have officially come to believe that my college is a high school now... :(

unspokenone25 05-01-2006 01:30 PM

Sounds like "School Daze" to me!

I agree; no offense to your institution, but all this drama sounds rather juvenile. Rather high school/middle school-esque...

Apparently, no one at your school has time for class, homework, finals and/or community service. All these t-shirts? Really? :eek: :rolleyes: Be for real...

Like I said before, I am a woman of Alpha Kappa Alpha. I know what it means to be a soror of my organization--not anyone else's. I didn't pledge to diss other people, to call across the yard, to break the unity in the Black Community, etc---I was made to uphold the legacy of my founders and their mission---why should I care about anyone else? :rolleyes:

Sooooo... if you're doing what you're supposed to be doing, you won't have time to notice anyone or anything else---you'll be doing YOU and YOURS, like you're supposed to be. ;)

:confused: People are on something else these days...

Well if you don't care for what I have to say, please don't read any of my posts. I will be fine without your responses. I posted it because it was relevant to the topic at hand. Trust that I don't have enough time to post all the happenings on my campus. This one was particularly funny and sad at the same time. The only thing messy is the behavior of the individuals involved. So let's stick to the topic at hand. If you wanna focus on me please feel free to PM me.:D

Why don't you tell us some messy stories about your frat? BTW have you checked your website lately, there seems to be a problem with how to spell Florida on your chapter history page.

Lol!!! You're a real comedian. I swear you people kill me. That page is no long even recognized by my chapter. It just hasn't been taken down. But thank you for the research. LG, please cool ya jets. It's not that serious. I've posted not so glorious moments about my frat before. I'm not ashamed to admit when we do something wrong. You must learn that messy things happen!!! Don't take it personal!:D
