Anyone remember this guy from a few pages back? I've got an update.
So we ended up bidding this guy and he accepted, so he's one of our fine pledges. I have purposely avoided him all semester because he's a flaming liberal, and I guessed that we wouldn't get along.
I had my first run-in with him last night. Three of us were in our (quiet) conference room working on a project. This guy walks in talking our ears off about how he's going to ace his pledge test later that night. Cool, I don't really care because I have a project due in the morning. I glanced up from my work and he has on a Barack Obama TIE. I know what you're thinking- there are tackier ties- YOU ARE WRONG! This one has Obama's face on a postage stamp, his name written in red white and blue, pictures of Obama on the White House lawn, etc. It was terrible. I wanted to punch him in the face, but asked him to leave instead. A lot of people like him though, so it's not worth it to do anything.
I wonder if he knows it bothers you and does it on purpose to rile you (and others?) up. I know plenty of people who say or do provocative or irritating things because they love getting a reaction out of someone.
And good for you, SECdomination, for being able to support your brothers who like the Obama guy. Don't let him get to you!
