You are kinda like the weird girl who intrudes a conversation and says something stupid, causing an uncomfortable silence/grimace among the group.

Kddanni envy.


Although Sockpuppet heckles Kddanni, and it pains me everytime he/she does so...but I still respect him/her.


And PS. You are on my bandwagon, so you shall only speak when I raise my finger.

Just for the hell of it, I searched "lollers", and though I did not read through all 24,567 posts on the "Random" thread, I'm pretty sure you're the only one I've seen use it.
Um, no. Quite a few people have used it... Including myself...

So, you don't like it? Stop being such a damn stick in the mud. There's a few things you do that drive me crazy. But, you don't see me calling you out in a thread do you? Geesh!

If southern greek life is so great, why is it necessary to post it all over the boards like hell that it is. I don't recall anybody saying anything negative about southern life for anybody to defend it in the first place. Get over yourself ( I'm cool, no really I am, check out my croakis!!) I like how in a earlier post someone said that they were sick of people stereotyping southerners, yet they stereotype people from the north and west U.S.

Southern greek life is great, for us. It would probably suck for you, and we'd rather others not get involved in it anyhow. If they did, we'd just become like the fraternities up north and out west, which is precisely what I'd like to avoid.

As much as I love the South, and Alabama (home of my alma mater) and Georgia (my home state) in particular, Southerners do tend to get very defensive when their way of life is made fun of or poked at in any way. While I'm fortunate enough to have lived in a couple other areas of the country and have friends from all over the place, people from areas out of the South just have to understand that the way of life is different down here.

In most areas of the South, the pace of life is slower. Being outdoors, camping, fishing, hunting, etc. is a big, big thing, especially if you live near water. Tradition and class play a big part in greek life. Many people are big into name-brands like Costas and Clarks and Polo and North Face and whatnot.

The way of life in the South is not for everyone. As much as I have come to appreciate the low cost of living, the Southern grace and hospitality of most folks, the fantastic food, the old traditions that live on and on, well, there's other places to live in the country too. And I think people in the South need to travel and see the world a bit if they haven't been out of it much. And I think people from the North and West need to come and visit the South, then maybe they'll appreciate it. Or not.

Either way, if everyone would just open their eyes and be open to new experiences and new people.... well geez, I think I'm asking for world peace here. Oh well.

Ive been to the northeast, canada, midatlantic, and out west...there is no place like the South. It is its own unique niche within our country. Whether or not you like it it meaningless in mine and in many other southerners minds, becuase we like it. Im not going to tell you how I feel about your places of residence, because I dont care how yall do things. If one thing works for you, by all means continue doing it. However, just because things work around other parts of the nation, doesnt mean that theyll work where I'm from.

As far as dress goes, is one of those huge leather strap watches necessary? Is it necessary to have on two polos when its 90 degrees outside? I dont think so, but atleast the croakies have some functionality amongst the majority of southerners. As far as gel, you look like youre in middle school. Ive never seen any respectable business man, politician, doctor, or lawyer with gelled hair. Maybe again, because its a southern thing, but i doubt it. The reason we try and look presentable everywhere we go because thats how we were brought up. If you think that we dont have fun because of it, youve obviously never been here. If that makes us stupid, so be it. Either way, Id rather be in the South as opposed to anywhere else in the country, because its my home. If you dont like it, tough. Dont come down here. If you respect it, come and youll love it when you leave.

I've gotten used to just about everything in the south except for driving. I never knew the true definition of "rubbernecking" until I moved to the south. Yesterday there was a car flipped on Innerloop 485 right after Providence and the Outerloop was backed all the way up to Johnston (about 7 miles back for you non-Metrolinans).

Speaking of gel, I kind of thought that spiky-haired look was over with anyhow? I thought most guys throughout the country were going for a real short cut or the sort of floppy under the baseball cap hairdo. Or a sort of Beatles-esque thing like that horrible Jesse McCartney kid. Just wondering.
