Stuff like that, anything to help the manflirting not last as long.
You might want to put this in Fraternity Recruitment instead of Recruitment Stories.

You might also consider sticking your head in a toilet and flushing.

There are a few other guys like you around here who feel the need to impress upon us just how "elite" they are in nearly every post they make. It's boring and pathetic.

Unless they get into the racist/bigot stuff, I rather enjoy the Fratties trying to out-Frat eachother. You have to take it with a grain of salt.


And I really like the term "Manflirting".

well, i was thinking how elite could his chapter be if they have even one unattractive girl hanging around?

i do love the "manflirting" phrase.

My impression of guys like this is that they are always the ones the house had the toughest time deciding whether to pledge or not. And little do they know how close the vote probably was. It's nearly always the guys who think so highly of themselves who usually came the closest to NOT getting in.

It's a little disappointing he happens to be a FIJI, which is also my husband's fraternity. Way to NOT represent an otherwise great fraternity.

I believe those close-to-not-getting-in pledges were referred to as "House Bill Pledges" as in "we need 12 to cover our house bills, and only have 11 we like, so John was sort of our House Bill Pledge"

There was a sorority on campus that actually referred to their pledges as the "Pretty [last letter of GLO name]'s" and the "Quota [last letter of GLO name]'s".

Yeah, but don't call the OP a FIJI cuz he thinks it sounds goofy

I remember one of the advisors here on GC telling a story about hand-bidmatching, and then watching the girls at the very bottom of the bidlist who barely squeeked on to the pledgeroll of the "elite" (in their eyes) sorority look down at those who got into less "elite" groups and thinking "If only you knew how close you were to NOT getting in your group." I want to say it was carnation who posted that, but I can't remember for sure.
