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

LOL, I'm joining you on the couch. Pass the popcorn.

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.

teh is "leet speak" used here only to make fun of others
Teh Cult refers to a person who referred to the snarky girls of GC as a "cult" (in which case I should be richer) and it was so silly a thread was formed welcoming all to the cult.

Intarwebs probably refers to one of those politicians who tried to sound intelligent about the internet and failed, but I'll have to look it up. Either way it's another stupid saying that gets used in fun. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interweb.

Oh and spelling it with the A is just one more reference to leetspeak.

I tried a search, but no luck.

The actual TEH CULT thread was deleted or moved, but there's a bit of it here.

And, just because it's the holidays...TEH CULT t-shirt design.

I'm not explaining anything on it, so don't ask.

It's secret ritual info.

SWTXBelle · #38 12-28-2007, 02:13 PM

But I simply must know about the mystical salt shaker and sacred beach chair!!!!
And Buffett wrote your ritual???

"Let them slide for a few years" - Meaning, they are newly back on campus, and will not be held to your organizations Southern guidelines until they have been on campus for a number of years and re-established themselves.

Thus the "free pass" statement.

I understand some "locations" now.

And I'm no ritual expert, but my guess for the salt shaker (besides the rimming of the cocktail glasses of course) is that it represents GCers need to take things with a "grain of salt" and/or a reference to those who clearly can't or don't... guess I can't get confirmation of that without getting killed or needing to offer a first-born or something, though, huh?

I understand what it meant, I was giving Fratty a hard time since he's a huge Greek snob. He contradicted himself by talking about all his high standards, but this chapter doesn't have to live up to that since they're rebuilding. Makes little sense. If they're rebuilding, they should be held to an even higher standard in order to prove themselves. But I'm not Fratty so I guess I'm wrong...

^^ I just had to look up both leetspeak and argot on wikipedia.

nittanyalum · #43 12-28-2007, 02:56 PM

^^Me too. Learned a lot, "get" more of the references I've seen here now...

SthrnZeta · #44 12-28-2007, 03:39 PM

For the record, I just learned about teh cult today. When I misspell things like that, I'm using the LOLCats spelling since I'm not a member of teh cult. Thanks AF for posting that link - I learned all sorts of stuff today: from the DZ thing at Depaw, KaiKey and BamaDad_DZ, to teh cult. Interesting stuff...

Nittany - sounds like you're learning a lot these days too (the shocker...?? LOL).

Aaaahhh, ookay. I hate missing a joke or point of something, which I clearly did yesterday. I misread his sentence yesterday and didn't get that "shocker" was the key word there. Clueing off your post here I waded back into urban dictionary and NOW I get it. LOL. Man, I hate getting old and out of touch. But as the cliche goes, you do learn something every day.

I liked this entry the best in relation to the context of that thread:

Quote:

Not merely the sexual act ... but also the hand position used to perform said act (ring finger and thumb touching, all other fingers extended)-- especially when displayed in a context, such as a sporting event or school function, where it has absolutely nothing to do with actual digital penetration of a woman and everything to do with trying to impress one's friends with how unoriginal one is.
The pimple-faced teen, trying desperately to win the approval of his peers, flashed "the shocker" at the exact moment his yearbook photo was taken, despite the fact that he had never even seen a vagina in person, much less stuck his fingers in one, and that if he ever did, HE would be so "shocked" that he'd probably faint.
