Rush is like dating. People are initially attracted to potential dates for a bunch of dumb, superficial reasons - looks, popularity, "cool" factor. That's never enough, though. Sometimes the cool, hot guy is just not the guy that you click with. Sometimes you end up with some guy who is perfect for you, but didn't have the same kind of immediate, flashy appeal.
If I had to come up with a response to that (VERY RUDE) PNM, I would say something like this: "It doesn't matter how you end up in the organization that you end up in. If it's going to work out and be a positive experience, the organization has to provide experiences that you enjoy and want to have, and you have to bring positive traits that contribute to the organization. You can't just chose a group because 'nobody else wants me.' You have to ultimately find something of value in that group and bring something of value to that group. Before you chose an organization, you should think about whether that group can do that for you and whether you can do that for that group."
