Bow, minions, Dr. Phil has spoken. There is to be no more discussion.

I SAID BOW.

You don't have to experience something to know it is a fact. I didn't experience the Titanic but I know it sank. Agzg as for points being made since no one has been to every single chapter in America it is just opinions as each of you said I have no proof these are rules you have no proof they aren't. Traditions are unspoken rules. It isn't a rule to hold the door for a women or call your teacher Mrs. Jones but we do. Atleast at U. Memphis in my next door neighbors pledge binder from fall 08 one rule is no letters when going out. It doesn't have to turn into a catty battle just because each of you think you are right.

Bless your heart dear, look at the quoted part. At Memphis they are not allowed to go out in letters. At my school it was a campus panhellenic rule. What the other posters are trying to tell you is that rules such as not going out in letters and no smoking are campus and chapter specific. It may seem to you that everyone has these rules because they are pretty common in the south, but that is more of a regional/ tradition thing. I have read the DDD bylaws completely and there is no rule that saws we cannot drink or smoke in our letters. I choose not to because that was our campus rule and old habits die hard. Please think before you decide to argue and antagonize the posters here. As a PNM you really have no idea what you are talking about, even if your mother is greek. You need to just sit back, read the helpful advice on this site, and be quiet. There are many southern sorority alumnae and actives that post on and read this site. You would hate to say something that could damage your recruitment.

To quote myself from back in the day:

Here's your ball, you can take it and go home if you want.

If I used irritating internet abbreviations I think ROTFLMAO would be the appropriate one. Apparently this is the sandbox...but I'm all for getting in touch with my inner kindergartner, so I'm game.

Here's two tips:
1. Take your own advice.
2. Just don't be such a rancid bitch. Go pet a kitten or something.



PS-Taking your own advice means strapping on those big girl panties and not responding. Challenge! Can the all powerful do it? And go...

I saw this thread bumped and my first thought was, "Ugh, hasn't this died already?"

So does my uncontrollable laughter make me a minion?

@Dr. Phil: Master, how can I serve you?

Wow, is there any reason you insist on being such a bitch all the time?

Yep. Dr. Phil is an insufferable bitch to me without fail, so I amuse myself by giving the same in return. Hey, when no one is a complete cow to me, I'm sweet as honey.


Of course, I also remember at all times this is the internetz. Don't take it all so seriously. I'm sure Dr. Phil acts like an actual adult in real life, as do I. This is an internet forum...it's ok to let off some steam.

No, I'm pretty sure I've thought you were a bitch every time you've posted. You just keep proving it, though.

Your point in this thread was wrong. Maybe drinking rules are more common but smoking rules definitely are not. There's no need to get your panties in a bunch about it, though.

In that case you might be too sensitive for an internet forum. I can't imagine how posts about things like service projects or social events can be bitchy, but hey, whatever floats your boat. Might as well find some way to entertain yourself. Don't get me wrong, tit-for-tat isn't limited to Dr. Phil by any means, it just seems that is one particular poster that is incapable of posting anything but "you're stupid" or "fuck off" towards me, so hey, might as well have fun with it. The day they post something civil, adult, and on topic in response to a post of mine they will of course get the same in return. It just hasn't yet happened. But every day is a new day!

So in response to what you've written here, I'll respond twofold:
-You're a bitch. You call people a bitch, therefore you are one. So, azgz, you are a bitch. I am a bitch. We are all bitches, let's sing and dance!
-You haven't read any of my posts, I'll guess, except the ones playing the Dr. Phil sandbox game, because your assumption of my "point" is incorrect. Though both of those ARE common "rules", "traditions", whatever you want to call them among individual chapters, that was in no way my "point" in this thread. If I get bored later I'll re-read to make sure I wasn't inordinately ambiguous in my posts, but I don't believe I was. And listen, in the interest of everyone having a good time...if you're going to get your panties in the mother of all knots, you might as well be the hall monitor for everyone on this thread who is throwing sand on the playground. I'm not the only one...come on, where's your righteous indignation at the other nasty posts in this thread? There's no satisfaction in a job half-done.


Again, this is the internetz. If someone responds to your posts consistently with "you're stupid", "you're a bitch", "you're dumb" etc. and you have a little fun with it, I won't judge you for it. It's a far more enjoyable experience when you chill out.

Kittens for everyone!

Now if that doesn't cheer you up I recommend stepping away from the computer screen. If kitties can't fix it, you're too worked up.

A. If you're going to post to me, get my username right, thanks.
B. I have thoughts as to whose sockpuppet you may be, but I have and will continue to keep that to myself.
C. I stopped reading that post once you messed up my username. Even if you hadn't messed it up, I still wouldn't have read it. EDIT PEOPLE!
D. Does PINEAPPLE work on anyone else but als?

Geez, you are way past kittens. Try this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XQ1D6vW6IQ

Now if that doesn't make you smile, you might be a cyborg.

For someone who claims not to care about "the internetz" you sure do feel like you have to go on and on about HOW you don't care and WHY you don't care and REALLY it's all messing around.

The lady doth protest too much, methinks.

What else am I supposed to do until lunch break? I've been watching videos of baby pandas all morning, too, so I'm quite chipper. Damn the slow economy and the empty shop this morning.
