Can someone explain what TFM and TSM are? Those haven't reached my world.

Consider yourself lucky. It's total Frat move or total srat move. It's all about 'Merica, Republican, rich, white, highly attractive women, gossip, pictures etc... With a HUGE emphasis on party hard, excess, extremes etc...
It's kind of like The Chive or The Berry but for Greek life.

Yay for Cat Saturday!
If people think that TFM and TSM are what Greek life really is all about, then chances are they already held those assumptions prior to visiting the site(s).
I would hope that most intelligent incoming college students would be able to recognize these sites as being used purely for entertainment. They're even advertised as humor sites. Collegehumor.com has been around forever, seemingly giving a bad name to every college and university around the country. However, I highly doubt that site has greatly influenced students' decisions to attend college, not attend college, party harder, and/or party less.
If anyone is completely buying into what's being portrayed on a humor website, then they need to step away from these sites and do some actual research. Either that, or they'll get to college and find out that not everything they see on the interwebz is for realz.
ETA: Where the heck did that smiley face at the top of my post come from?

It's the female counterpart to "frat". Doesn't roll off the tongue but still fairly widespread, at least around the schools I'm at.

Some young woman (NOT at the chapter I advised) said "sratty" in front of me during recruitment this year. I just couldn't believe it.
Darling, you go to Wash U. You don't have a snowball's chance of being "sratty."
Good Lord.

One of our sisters (at a school I won't mention, but it's in the northeast) tried creating a clothing site which had the word "srat" in it. It was painful to see people like it on Facebook, especially because most alumnae didn't understand what srat was referring to, and they thought she just made up a creative name. When they found out about srat and how it's been used, many weren't thrilled.
Oh, and I just came across this website. There are no words.
