Perhaps someone should tell the newspapers Society Editors this when it comes to sororities and debutantes. They list girl, parent's, school, major, hometown, high school and almost everything about these girls except their bra size. And their Mama's run out and get dozens of copies to give to all the relatives. When I first moved down South I was fascinated by it but now I realize it's "a Southern Thing".

Except deb balls and many things in the society pages are meant to be in there, even given to the paper by the parties involved. I'm pretty sure most of the women rushing sororities don't give their permission to post their rush results all over the Internet.

No, it's not a "Southern thing..." It may be a "local thing" in some regional areas of the South, but do not call it a "Southern thing." It most certainly isn't and saying so, quite honestly, makes Southerners look like some of the rush-obsessed crazies of GC.

In my little corner of the South, you don't go onto the society page unless you have an engagement, marriage, birth, or death. If you do get in the society pages for something else, people know you're a pretentious bitch.

Need a Snark Warning on your posts, so in the future I don't dump my salad is all over the floor
