The APhiA's at my school used to do this 'call' (so to speak): "One, One, One, One, NIIIINE, O (oh), six". We didn't hear them saying "copyright" or "patent pending" following their 'call', so we did one going "One, One, One, One, eeeiiiggght, three, nine" and they loved it. No asses were handed on platters either.

Still need to know, whats the big friggen deal?

"Mutthaphuckinwordupyo" - copyright

Read in italic below (since when did NPHC groups become NON-GLO?)
If you don't think there's a big deal, AGAIN, you're more than welcome to stop posting to me.

Yeah, it's "cute" when you're OBVIOUSLY being imitated. It's a form of flattery. But, if your founding year was also 1906, the Alphas wouldn't have found it "cute," for you to adopt their "call."

No copyright is needed, but (as I said before) don't act surprised if someone says something about it.

To provide an obvious answer to your final question:

We're all GLOs, but in conversation, how do I distinguish between BGLOs and the "rest of them?" Exactly.
