Maybe it's a regional thing, or a yard thing, I do not know.

But where I came through no one but AKA's would have used that term. It just wasn't done, not by other sororities, and CERTAINLY not by interests.

I do not understand why an interest of AKA would come on the internet and use a handle that is almost always used by AKA's- at least on GC, delphi and blackplanet it is. And then be upset when people perceive it as disrespect? That is some mess right there!

Granted it is not as bold as if she used 08, or ivy, but once again maybe this is because of where I came through, it seems just as bad!

If she had come out and explained that it had some meaning to her, etc. and that in her area it was not an issue I might have even understood, but she didn't. She was just bold about it and came out to CRITICIZE another interest. wow. what happened to humility y'all?

I guess it died a quick death.
