In this thread, we give random incorrect advice.
 
When accepting a business card in Japan, you should grab it with one hand and stick it in your pocket without looking at it.

When attending a professional football game at Heinz Field, you should dress entirely in orange and brown and tell all the people sitting near you how psyched you are to be in the "Dawg House."

christiangirl 04-23-2010 06:14 PM

If you have a bloody nose, you should immediately tilt your head back.

CougarGrad 04-23-2010 06:46 PM

When visiting the Alamo, you should openly lament to the Daughters of the Republic of Texas that Sam Houston's army won the Battle of San Jacinto.

When rushing at Kent State, you need at least 5 recs per house or you will fail miserably.

ThetaPrincess24 04-23-2010 07:08 PM

Feel free to wear a Duke t-shirt when walking through the University of Kentucky campus. No one will give a crap. Really.

ree-Xi 04-23-2010 07:42 PM

During rush, ask the chapter how much of your dues goes towards the "slush fund".

KSUViolet06 04-23-2010 07:46 PM

It is perfectly acceptable to ask if there are refunds when you join a sorority.

LucyKKG 04-23-2010 07:56 PM

You don't need to wash your hands after handling raw chicken. Just lick 'em off.

psusue 04-23-2010 07:56 PM

When coming to Penn State, make fun of Joe Pa liberally, loudly, and in the middle of Beaver Avenue. You'll make tons of friends.

KSUViolet06 04-23-2010 07:58 PM

When attending a Kent State football game or tailgate, heels, pearls, skirts and/or dresses are a MUST.

crescent&pearls 04-23-2010 07:59 PM

Ask your boss if you could just get paid for, or take your allotment of sick days as paid time off because a sick day is just like a vacation day. Explain to her that if you are sick you usually just come in to the office and meet with your clients anyways because it doesn't really affect the quality of your work whether you are healthy or sick....much. Oh and ask her to explain that "billable time" thing...again.

AXiDMeesh 04-23-2010 08:03 PM

Does this thread get stickied, too? :D

Hahaha that's the part that freaked you out? Not the raw chicken part??

CougarGrad 04-23-2010 08:42 PM

For you pregnant, "nesting" mothers-to-be, now's the best time to give the cat litter box a thorough scrubbing.

Sister Havana 04-23-2010 08:47 PM

If you are an upperclassman and want to rush at Indiana - go for it! You have an excellent chance to get a bid if you're a junior or even a senior!

SWTXBelle 04-23-2010 09:28 PM

Ask any woman with even the slightest bit of a belly when she is due.

Benzgirl 04-23-2010 09:33 PM

If you go through recuitment in the SEC make sure you tell the girls about your boyfriend, Guido.

Sister Havana 04-23-2010 09:43 PM

Show your coworkers what an openminded person you are by downloading and playing the filthiest fetish porn you can find on your computer at work.

christiangirl 04-23-2010 09:52 PM

Like your fingers extra loudly around ree-Xi. :D

Absolutely!

It is also important to note that in order to have the BEST chance at receiving a bid at Kent, one should begin preparing for recruitment as early as junior year of HS.

agzg 04-23-2010 10:53 PM

All the girls at SEC schools wear pink sequined panty-hose for recruitment. You should, too.

So that's why they call it finger lickin' good!

Make yourself become whatever the man you really like wants you to be so that he'll love you forever.

christiangirl 04-23-2010 11:14 PM

Walk up to a black woman and touch her hair. Don't even ask her first, she won't mind. Really.

AGDee 04-23-2010 11:14 PM

Also walk up to an obviously pregnant woman and put your hand on her belly to feel the baby move. Don't ask her first either. She'll be thrilled.

dreamseeker 04-23-2010 11:14 PM

copy the mission, colors, shield, etc. of another GLO and just throw on an extra greek letter. or call it "New XYZ". they will love the idea.

BabyPiNK_FL 04-23-2010 11:15 PM

Eat that new KFC "sandwich"! What harm could come of it?

Also,

Buy that new Ke$ha album, she's amazing!

indygphib 04-23-2010 11:16 PM

Ed Hardy and Affliction T-shirts are MUSTS for fraternity rush in the SEC.

Leslie Anne 04-23-2010 11:17 PM

Always drink tap water when in Mexico, you'll be fine.

33girl 04-23-2010 11:23 PM

Vodka is clear like water, so you can drink it like you would drink water.

KSUViolet06 04-23-2010 11:24 PM

Didn't get a bid but still want to be in a sorority?

Just go to the local Greek store and have a shirt made with the letters of your fave chapter on it!

Feeling extra spiffy, make a bag too.

Just wear them both around campus, you'll fit right in and the current sisters will love it.

While wearing said items, just randomly sit down with a group of them in the cafeteria.

Voila! Instant sisterhood. I guarantee it.

[This advice is not only good for NPC sororities, but NPHCs too.]

christiangirl 04-23-2010 11:36 PM

^^^What, you mean if one rejects you, you shouldn't go around campus bad mouthing them then try for a different sorority the next semester?

This is among CG's horror stories. Mexican vacation circa 1989. *shudders* I think I blacked out before we even made it to the hospital. So for the record, everything people say about tap water goes for ice cubes, too!!!

1stSoon2BePhD 04-23-2010 11:47 PM

When watching a comedy in a packed movie theater, it is common courtesy to slap the stranger sitting to your left when a joke is really funny. They'll love that.

Also a do for if you don't get a bid to a sorority that you want-- come to GC and ask how you can go AI with them. Make sure that you're at minimum a sophomore, if not a second semester freshman, who has gone through rush only once and informally, and don't bother checking if your dream sorority even does AI first-- that's what GC experts are for! Remember, it's way smarter to start planning your AI journey early than to bother re-rushing and giving all the sororities on campus a chance.

1stSoon2BePhD 04-23-2010 11:54 PM

When meeting your girlfriends father for the first time, a great way to impress him would be to tell him all of the freaky sexual fantasies you've had that involve his daughter. He will be extremely excited about this and probably encourage her to spend more time with you!

Oh yes. Most definitely. After all, you DESERVE to be in a sorority after everything you've accomplished in your 2 years of undergrad.

Also, if you're a legacy to a sorority on campus, you need to start a letter-writing campaign to the chapter over the summer detailing all of your awesome qualities and reminding the chapter that they HAVE to give you a bid. Why? Because you're a legacy, duh.

If you should happen to be cut fron your legacy chapter during recruitment, you and your mom/sister/aunt/etc. need to IMMEDIATELY drive to the chapter house and cause a HUGE scene.

You are a LEGACY and they have NO RIGHT to deny you a bid. That's like, discrimination.

When I was in college, one of my classmates told me she was guaranteed to be an XYZ (NPHC) because she was a legacy--her godmother was one. I didn't say anything.
