And the Anna Rusty hookup is going to be awesome, I think it'll start out like Rebecca and Cappies relationship though, sneaking around.

i know this is gonna take this thread way off course, but ppl who say "i dont like gay people" typically mean "i dont like flamboyant, over-the-top gay, oh-no-she-didnt-that-whore gay people."

which Calvin isnt (he's all like, hey i like dudes, but im not gonna give you the gory details cause im more than that), but the guy he went on the date with, seemed more on that end. or more like "im gonna incorporate my gayness into every part of my life." which to me, is similar to folks who are very ethnocentric or way into feminism. some are OK with it, others are like "can you turn that down a little"

hell, its like people who are all about greek life 24/7, caught in the "greek matrix." you know, all they talk about is the next mixer, how awesome greek week is gonna be, who made total, who became an XYZ, buys things only in [insert color/symbol], and generally incorporates random greek stuff into GDI life. some are of the "whats the big deal?" mind, others are like "really? go get a hobby."

Actually, I take that comment to mean I don't like gay people period.....regardless of where they fall on the gayness scale. But, whatever. I think the point the show was trying to make is that Calvin shouldn't be afraid/embarassed of guys that aren't "gay" like him. That's why Ash was telling him that he should pursue a relationship with Michael despite their differences. And, really, he didn't come off that flamboyant to me. He's just different from Heath (the Kappa Tau Calvin was seeing), which isn't a bad thing.

Dude disliking gay people isn't cool. It isn't cool at all. Apart from being mean, it kind of went out of style, you know. You should see Philadelpha or the Matthew Shepard story or something. I'm not saying you hate anybody but you coule kind of learn to not not like them, hopefuly

You only have three posts so you don't know me that well. We cut a gay guy in our chapter, I think being gay is not only wrong but absolutely disgusting. I don't like gay people, I don't tolerate that. And as for Philadelphia- that would be north of the mason-dixon, so no thanks. And I couldn't give a rat's ass what's cool. See the recently closed Gays in fraternities thread, and you'll see how I feel.

The FU line was good. My other favorite was Beaver chanting "Donna Martin graduates!" Hilarious. Dale's crazy, sweaty rant was funny too.

I'm tired of Rebecca period. Damn that girl is annoying. They should give Ashleigh her own story for once and focus less on Rebecca's.

Even when she is being good I still feel like the old Frannie is in there somewhere. I don't completely buy her being nice. I could see her trying to take back the house from Casey.
