You know, every sorority has its loonies - people who slipped through the cracks, but unfortunately for Zeta, a disproportionate amount of those women seemed to have found their way to GC. There are a bunch of awesome Zetas on here, but a few of them have just ruined it.

I know of one you're referring to (though I don't agree and won't name her) but I would hope that I'm not included in the "loonies" you refer to.

Hardly. I'm not talking about anything serious here, just the way they are looked at on campus.

Another idiotic comment, I am not saying that they can go roofie girls or burn down the student union, just that they don't have a whole lot of respect on campus there right now. There is no way that you could possibly be in a top tier southern sorority and NOT know what I'm talking about.
Of course I know all about the "tiers." But your comment about letting them slide for a few years just seemed wrong to me. You talk of being "fratty" (a word not used at my school but that I now know the meaning of thanks to GC) yet you allow some brothers to not live up to these high standards you speak of. Just sounds contradictory to me so I called you on it. Get over yourself and your arrogance. You're not cool cuz you're Greek and the more you have to post that you are on the internet, the less cool that makes you. If you truly want to be "fratty," be more of a gentleman.

^^You can't blame her, though, for enjoying being IN the pile-on rather than UNDER it for once. At least she's made a concerted effort to stop poking the bears and thickened her skin to "take it" in good humor, have to give her credit for that...


ETA: This was a response to AF, and SZ, I read it that yes, you were included...

I read it that I was included also and that kinda bothered me because, yes, I have made a concerted effort to "play nice" and I definitely learned not to take this site seriously in the least (my recent responses to certain posters should be evidence of that).

Yeah, it's better, but she's still loosing points for arguing with the Fratty.

SthnZeta - you need to learn when to stop. You're not going to change the Fratty's mind, so what's the point of arguing? He's always going to one-up you, because he's willing to say whatever it takes to get you riled up. And he's apparently good at it. So, either ignore him, or when all else fails, try a LOLcat.

If you're gonna call me out for continuing to get on his case, then at least include everyone else in the "pile-on." I may be talking at him more than others, but I am certainly not alone. And I love LOLCats - they're like greeting cards, there's one for every occasion!

Since you yourself said I was acting less noob lately, I feel justified in posting this one:



He's a conceited immature little boy and I'm only sorry I wasted as much energy on him as I have. I think I'll just laugh at him without directly responding and also likely laugh at the people that continue to flame him as he deserves.

Good luck on your GC journey, Fratty, maybe you'll learn to be a real man some day. Maybe not.

See, now, I knew you had potential. Good post. You keep this up, and we might have to bring back TEH CULT just to induct you.

And you "lose" points by continuing to spell losing incorrectly. I've not mentioned it previously, but it's happened in several of your posts, so I thought I'd be helpful and bring it up now.

Spelling bothers me too but I've learned not to care so much on teh intarwebs - most people, myself included, tend to think faster than they type and so mistakes are inevitable. The edit button and I are pretty tight.

AF, thanks for the comment. For once, a non-snarky remark. I didn't know you had it in you. *tear* Don't let it happen too often though, people might think you've gone soft, lol.

To pile on or not to pile on?

Grabbing popcorn and watching is still okay, right? That's what I've been doing . . . (goes back to lurking)

Wow. I've had The Dumbz lately. I'm blaming it on the holidays.

AF is a smart cookie -- I knew she'd want to know.
