I've always felt the videos were problematic as well. Too many inside jokes, situations, etc...there is no voice over - just music with the members clapping, hooting and hollering. What does any of that mean? What's anchor weekend??? What's any of it? The audience isn't "in" on any of it. And just what are all those groups at UGA who built additions with stages going to do with that room????? Don't get me wrong. i'd like to see no skits and a short 5 minutes video...and learn how to talk to someone!!!!!!

Thinking about some skits I've seen over the years...so many of the most popular groups had skits that were almost totally composed of inside jokes and the ones that weren't weren't particularly funny. And it finally hit me that these wildly popular groups could have put anything up on that stage-someone lecturing about rare chemicals or the fungi of Zambezi and the PNMs would've still been hanging on the edge of their seats, pretending to understand everything and laughing frantically.

I belong to a Facebook group that's mainly professional makeup artists. The group has been WTF-ing over an automatic brush cleaner that is being marketed by women in lingerie and wearing t-shirts that say sexy CEO. Someone very wisely pointed out that women will buy the product because they'll think they can look like the women advertising it. Same here, I guess.

I could say more, but I'll just say please tell me those all white outfits were for bid day and not for ritual.

LOL, one of the family trees in my chapter used to call themselves the "Clairol 503 family" as they all used the same shade.
