Picking a fight was not my intention. But I'm a PNM so I'm clearly in the wrong for standing up for what I said. If I knew I wasn't allowed to make generalizations then I would have rethought my post especially if I knew it would turn into this. I just mentioned from previous experiences, limited or not, general or specific,what I've come across. My apoligies AOII angel. And no I'm not saying it because I'm afraid of someone figuring out my identity and black balling me from the greek world wherever I decide to go.

Nothing in this post addresses the same thing I was addressing. No one said that you shouldn't defend your point, however for someone in your position, you should do so WITHOUT alluding to someone having a reading comprehension issue and pet names...it's condescending, and you obviously meant it that way. And before we get into a pot/kettle discussion, yes, I snark people on a pretty regular basis, but I also got my bid while you were still in Jr. High, and am not worried in the least bit about impressing collegians and alumnae, as you should be, bless your heart (that was for you, KR).

No one said that standing up for what you said is "wrong," it was all in your tone. It's all about being gracious at this juncture. Those of us who have been where you are now have earned our snark.
