Does this tick you off, or do you just find it sort of silly?

It makes me no difference. NPHC doesn't corner the market on words. For many NPHC groups, "crossing the burning sands" is just a phrase in the first place.
When it comes to NPC and NIC Greeks having crossing jackets... so? What's a crossing jacket anyway? I know NPCs and NICs may have nicknames or pledge names, too. Otherwise, why not have a jacket that reps your chapter, season you pledged, etc?
