FAIL.
You and Dr. Phil have a side conversation going on here. The thread isn't about that, and you aren't interested in anyone's viewpoint other than your own on this topic. I see your viewpoint. I think it's an overreaction. I do not have to agree with you to understand what you're saying.

It's ok though. I'm so glad Alumiyum is here to tell me how much I'm overreacting.
I see als has explained...and is correct. The OP is using a a teddy bear. AXi's is a specific bear...and BetaXi bear is what the website calls the mascot.

Either way, despite the pedantry, she's 16 and fucked up. Ok. This thread is really more about what is or isn't ok as far as starting new orgs. Or at least it could be and that would be far more interesting than Dr. Phil pointing out that Alumiyum is minimizing what occurred by omitting the literal plagerism of a KD phrase. Something that the OP also admitted occurred.

OP, learn a lesson about two things a) how you present yourself online. Lying to try to make yourself sound more knowledgeable gets you in the end. and b) Make it a point to educate yourself about sororities. We're not just colors, letters, and clever phrases. If you get that, you'll get why it matters to us when you use them.
I skipped over the KD phrase, but have now read the OP's response and she obviously understands that is taboo. Super duper crisis averted.
