My GLO is the BEST

Am I the only one who doesn't like rush shirts/slogans/taglines which attempt to proclaim the superiority of one's GLO? While I love and adore Gamma Phi Beta, and of course think it is a top-notch org., I've never felt the need to proclaim "We are better than you!" - but I see lots of slogans which do just that. Perhaps I'm hopelessly idealistic, but I believe that every member is entitled to pride in their org, and that true superiority is seen in the modest, quiet pride taken in your glo and your embodying of the ideals of your founders. When I see these slogans, I can't help but think they betray a certain insecurity. If you are superior, would you have to yell it from the housetops - wouldn't it be obvious? Pride is good - but do you have to compare yourself with other GLOs?
What do you think?
