Hey, could someone send me a pm with the address of this website/message board thing? I'm curious to see it, as I've already seen that other nasty one hootie was talking about...grr! :mad:

I am also confused. I have only been part of GC for a few months and missed all this about the website. Could someone please PM me with address? I feel so out of the loop. Oh and Hootie, that website is terrible. I ran across it one day and I was disgusted with everything it said.

I am out of the loop, too! Can someone please PM me and give me the low down on these sites? I could use a good laugh and would LOVE to see what kind of crazy rumors are out there!!!!

Hmm... I think someone did. Try this one:

Swuedika KeftoV (Souedika Kephtos), which translates to ...





"SWEDISH MEATBALLS" :D




Obviously a joke and not the true meaning of the Greek letters that Sigma Kappas hold so dear. I don't know them, and I'm not asking.

That board was so full of deliberate misinformation, personal attacks and various and sundry acts of wanton debauchery that it deserved being shut down. Good for a little snicker or two, though.:D

For relative newbies:

This hasn't really been discussed in the past few months, but the site has been discussed on GC in the past year/couple years. Do a search and find some threads if you're interested. The website is pretty bogus and funny!

There was extensive discussion about this years and months ago, but it may be difficult to find because posts were either deleted or moved to the moderators' or adminstrators' forum.

While those who have visited that site in the past may have found some humor in its content, many more found it offensive. Whether or not the content was true, of course we'll never know (as ridiculous as some of it is). Still, the posts regarding the site were removed for a PURPOSE, and I humbly ask that open discussion be kept to a bare minimum...or taken to the PMs.

I for one thinks this sucks!:(

Especially Kits, whats his name!:mad:

Bite me greek, (notice small G):D Now no Burnt cow for You! Ever again.:p

Sandy, I hope Poi is not like Turnips when I was a Kid EONS ago that tasted so good and got one at the store, Jeeze Tasted Like S**T! Gag!

Will Poi Roots Grow In KS?????

I almost died laughing that was the funniest thing I have seen all day, Thanks for the laugh I really needed it.

And that little gem is courtesy of our beloved wptw.


It was so funny that I can forgive him the fact that meatballs are actually called "keftedes" and not "kefto." ;) :p

I generally don't post when this topic comes up, but I just have to say this...

THIS is why I really feel we don't need to go into talking about these things all the time. We constantly have new people on GC who will have their interest piqued and start googling and searching away trying to put 2 and 2 together. I really think the LESS you bring it up, the LESS people will go searching for it, and the sooner it will be a distant memory. As OTW says, the threads were removed for a reason (I personally don't care to have any more people searching for that crap!). If you need a "good laugh" so bad, try googling for a 'joke of the day' site!!!!

P.S. APhi Diva - no offense to you! Your post was the best way to make my point, though.

Swedish Meatball... ha ha ha!
 

My car (a 1989 Volvo station wagon) is affectionately nicknamed the Swedish Meatball... hilarious!

You sure it isn't Kitso? I've seen that word a lot around here.

Well, since it's relevant to the current discussion, here is the Swedish Meatball post in its entirety, with thanks to greeklawgirl for correcting my greek usage error...

Originally whimpered by “huh” on 7/24:
“What happened to people telling the secrets?”

You sound like a kid who just found out there’s no Santa Claus.

There were barely any secrets here to begin with – just the same old stuff that’s been running around the internet for years. You have no way of knowing what was real, what was deliberate misinformation and what was 100% fabrication.

Case in point:
Shortly after I first posted my email address here, someone emailed me to ask if I knew the secret motto of Sigma Kappa sorority. Wanted to get back at an ex-girlfriend by throwing it in her face. Happy to help, I revealed that the motto is Souedika Kephtes – told him how to pronounce it, spelled it for him in Greek and everything, and off he went to confront his ex. It was total bunk of course. Now, who wants to make a friendly wager that Souedika Kephtes shows up on some new message board months from now, or shows up in some self-proclaimed minister’s book?

I have yet to see anything of substance on this board. What meager secrets are here are lost in a sea of crap. And frankly, “huh”, you’ve got a meatball’s chance in Sweden of separating the grain from the chaff.

Oh, in case y’all were wondering, Souedika Kephtes means “Swedish Meatball”.

I think we need to start something to replace that hilarious forum just so wptw has a place to keep his wit, and his knife, sharp. He and a few others really did raise comeback posting to an artform.

Didn't mean to ruffle any feathers, but at the same time I was NOT the only person asking and don't appreciate being singled out as the "best way to make the point" when plenty of others were asking, too, not to mention several others chatting about the sites in the first place!! In any event, while I did stumble across a particular site that I am sure has upset a great many people (and justifiably so!), you have to trust that your fellow Greeks are behind you and trust that people are intelligent enough to read whatever is out there and come to their own concusions.....free speech, baby!
:cool:
