the first time was intentional, the second time, that was me slipping back into neo-mode and totally unintentional...

but i hear you - my UG chapter tried to get cute by using the cutesy spellings in our pamphelets and more than half the interests were like, you spelled something wrong... im confused, is that some phrase i need to know... etc.

yeah, that got scrapped quick.

I told him it was the year my sorority, AKA, was founded. He said "No it isn't. My sister tried to be one back in the early 70s and they wasn't at her school."

They wasn't?
LOL.

Heard my absolute least favorite non-greek supposition this weekend, yet again: "How much girl on girl action do you get to see? Do they make you do it?"

I usually respond with a huge scream.

I second that.

I guess the neo wasn't around when the Playboy Bunny was an unofficial mascot for his distinguished gentlemen. You know, before the cease and desist letters.

Apparently....... someone should have given him a history lesson on UNOFFICAL mascots.

I was around. :D

And there are still bunnies running around throwing up the "yo" (that coincidentally looks like rabbit ears to many) and using a bunny "mascot." :)

I must be throwing up the wrong "yo" then. :o :D

'Cause my "yo" has the thumb and forefinger forming a diamond with the remaining fingers lined up against each other and pressed together. I don't want anybody getting it twisted that my "yo" resembles a Playboy bunny--besides, it keeps the armchair attorneys and wannabe litigators at bay. ;)

Bout to get me booted from the office, laughing so loud at you.

I tend to pay little attention to other people's signs, but the first time i saw they "yo" and then the bunny "mascot" on Kappa para, I just assumed the you was supposed to be the bunny, lol.

"you're asian! why did you join a latin sorority/frat?"
"can you speak spanish?"

bekillian 11-28-2007 05:36 PM

My favorite quote, and I mean this literally because it's a good one is, "From the outside looking in, they could never understand. From the inside looking out, we could never explain."

I get told by plenty of people that crap about having to buy my friends, young and old. But if you ask me, it's the best investment I ever made.

Ooh, the other question I can't stand is, "Do they haze you?"

those questions annoy me when I get asked that all the time.

sometimes, i jokingly reply "Token asian" or "so you can ask me this question" :p

seriously though, I would just rather you ask me why "XYZ" than "why XYZ when you are asian". These days, most orgs push for diversity/multiculturalism that it shouldn't be much of a surprise.

tld221 11-30-2007 11:24 AM

one i get all the time:

"are you required to wear your colors when you meet your sorors?"

Of course you do! Everyone is informed by telepathic memo...

TotallyWicked 11-30-2007 12:21 PM

"Do you guys do stuff like in 'old school', is there a guy named Blue in your org?"

I haven't seen all of Old School....but I bet I'd be annoyed by it...people really do buy into the movies...yeesh

OMG, i actually got that once...I was like "yes, I'm one of the Elite" :cool: but when I'm having a bad day I sometimes say "What's THAT supposed to mean?!" and they usually back down :)

Well I went to mall last week and went to the cookie store and this conversation occured...

Girl Worker: Where you cross?
Me: Grad chapter, blah blah blah
Girl Worker: Do you step good?
Me: :rolleyes:
Girl Worker: Ya'll do that snake thang right?
Me: Umm, sure.
Girl Worker: You'll do the snake thing?
Me: Umm, no
Girl Worker: Come on, do the snake thing please?
Me: (nicely giggling) No
*Finally get my cookies*
Me: There is more to Alpha than stepping and hissing.
Girl Worker: You right, I feel you. But we just wanna see the snake thing.

I proceed to walk off smh.

Senusret I 11-30-2007 02:18 PM
