At a Panhellenic event early in the year I overheard her telling one of her pledge sisters that she got her third choice because she was first on their bid list. It was difficult not to say, "You got your third choice because all three matched to quota before they reached your name, then your top 2 also passed on you during quota additions, and your third choice was forced to take you because they had not maxed out on quota additions."

Wow, I'm mean.
Nah - actually saying it would have been mean. Thinking it was a natural reaction to a girl who was making a condescending remark to one of her own pledge sisters!
