OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMNMMMMMMMGGGGGGDZZZ

Seriously, though, that's a tired topic. Pick something else. And use better sources.

And "keeped" is not a word. :)

No, we don't...it's just more fun around here when we are.

Now, go do your homework then you can play outside until dinner.

Thing is you made a rookie mistake. Its necessary so you don't do it again. You have plenty of trolls who do this same thing. Reality is how exactly were you going to source GC? I'm sure your professor will give you extra points because username Bluphire told you about the stereotypes and how it has affected his life.

Wasn't it KSUViolet who once sarcastically created a citation in a thread like this one? ...

Yeah, if you really need the info, I suggest that you call up the Greek Life office at your school and see if they'd be willing to provide you any sources, etc.

Also, remember that if you're talking to people actually involved in Greek Life or have been involved in Greek Life, there will be biases in the comments. Keep that in mind.

The forums are a method of informal discussion, but there is no way to confidently verify that anyone here is actually Greek.

I'm sure she did, although I have no problem having my username being used by future generations of learned thinkers.

Well a paper once used one of my posts here as a quote for an article, so apparently academic and journalistic standards are on equally slippery ground.

Do you happen to have a copy of the article? I'm just really curious to see how they did that. "Username "Barbie's_Rush" said "OMG GREEK LIFE BLAH" which we can use to see how ABC." I'm just super curious how anyone could take that seriously.

Here you go. I thought it was freaking hilarious.

A thread on the online forum Greek Chat included comments about the video. One poster, Barbie's_Rush, said, "Not exactly the image Brooke projected when she was on american idol."
