Man naw! Like sophomore/juniors in HS. Once I see "little girl" whether or not they are cute doesn't even form.

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.

A little off topic, but in addition to being in a Fraternity in college, I joined Masons as an adult and was once asked: "Are you the guys who killed Kennedy?"

"where are the rest of your fraternity sisters?" (We are a sorority and we are sisters. The fraternity members are brothers. This irritates me probably more than it should)

"I give your sorority a year before it folds" (We began a new local sorority 3 years ago, and still going strong)

"I don't have to buy my friends" (that's a great one)

"How much do you love it?"

"How scared should I be for Rush/Pledge.... like... hazing?"

"Are the parties as crazy as the ones depicted on movies?"

"Oh, I know what a sororty is about...."

My response to that: "what based on stereotypes presented in movies and television?"

Other than this I get asked a lot of questions by potential rushees that really makes me proud to be a DAT girl.

I'm sure the Alpha Phi Fraternity ladies get all sorts of inquiries.

Random person: "You can't wear that. Aren't you a Delta?"
Me: Correct, I am a member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.
Random person: "Won't you get in trouble for wearing pink? Those are ya'll's enemies."
Me: :rolleyes: Oh yeah, I forgot. I can only wear crimson & cream. Thanks for reminding me.

Has anyone (particularly NPHC'ers) ever gotten this one?

"Do you know where those Greek letters came from? You know them Greeks stole letters from Egypt right? You are Black, Why didn't you pledge an African Fraternity?"

Chewing those chew sticks.

Tom Earp,
Seriously. There are a lot of weird conspiracy theories about the Masons. By the way, I'm still bitter about Lambda Chi beating us for the Va Tech University Softball Intramural Championship in 1987. (just kidding)

They aren't the only ones..... you have individuals who may have denounced their membership in orgs after reading some "Wake up! Your mind in enslaved" book and the next thing you know, they now want to spread the good word.:confused:

Just thought of something that happened just a little while ago. I had made a presentation on a college campus in the northeast and was leaving with my sorors. I was in a business suit and they were wearing their jackets. Other Greeks were also walking in the general direction I was going.

As we all passed by a group of girls, I heard one of them say, "I feel a step coming on" or something to that effect. I had no clue what the child was talking about until one of my sorors told me she was referring to us Greeks. LOL! Oooo k.

ME TOO!!

Precious here goes:
A sorority girl says: I feel a step coming on.

Then all of the sisters that were there got into place ans started stepping. **They all knew what to do and where to go, because she felt it coming; they all must have been psychics.**

I probably know more Spanish than a few of my Latina sisters :p

my graduate advisor (i'm in grad school) just realized after a whole semester, that I was in a sorority. It's not like I carry my totebag with my letters on it everyday, and even though I'm not a neo, will sometime double para when I wear a shirt.

deezeelove 01-21-2008 01:50 AM

from everyone that isn't involved in greek life, i get "oh, so you pay with daddy's money to have friends?"
and then i explain to them that on my bills, it doesn't say "friends-$750"....the money goes towards other things, and i start explaining to them that i'm not in it to go find a cute frat boy...i'm in it to help the community, find friends for life, and to grow as a person.

basically, if i hadn't joined, i might've ended up thinking what the average person thinks...but thank goodness i don't!

I hate it when muh fuhs join fraternities with sterotypes. That's some insecure low self esteem isht. That's why I want to be a muh fuh Iota.

I try not to get all serious on people, but you desperately need advice, so I'm going to help you.

Declaring that you "are going to be part of ______ organization" is in SERIOUS bad form, ESPECIALLY when it is one of the D9 groups. By doing this, you are very realistically damaging your chances of EVER getting accepted, and I mean this in absolute seriousness. It is much easier than you think to figure out who you are, and you are clearly not aware of this.

Also, we like English here. "muh fuh" is NOT English. It is monosyllabic crap.

Repeat after me: "Discretion is the key!"

Now, go change your user name and your sig.

I'm not sure. Can anyone else help this deluded boy? :confused: I know you can, though.

And I repeat..."dat" is not a real word. Thank you.
