It's all in the way you state things that makes them come across as offensive. Like I suggested before, thinking before you make statements like that may save you from GCers like myself getting on your case and consistently quoting your posts to call you out.

Oh the irony.

Sorry, girl, you set yourself up. Thanks.

I don't doubt that one bit and I knew you'd catch that BUT, and I think you will agree, that I certainly learned a lesson here on GC and I've definitely made a concerted effort to practice what I preach. TEH INTARWEBS R SO HARSCH!

Yes, I will agree that you've been less n00b lately.

I don't care what you think, its just ridiculous to get your panties in a bunch over a completely innocent post. I don't agree with most of the posters on this board, I'm on here because there are a few people that I like on here and there are occasionally good ideas.

Fine, don't take my advice. You gotta grow up some day...

It's a "once bitten, twice shy" thing. I say innocent things that a lot of times get taken snarky, because I am generally snarky (for entertainment value only...all in good fun...usually).

ETA: I find it humorous that SthrnZeta is the poster who can't get over PhiGam. Keep doing your thing PhiGam dude. Whether you intentionally do it or not.

I agree, if she was really anti-fur, she'd have fake ones made for the movie and wear those instead, and maybe even have a note about the furs not being real in the credits.

Pets are by law considered personal property which is why they can be bought and sold as such. And that's also why you can't get the death penalty for "destroying" your personal property.

Which is the way it should be. Animal cruelty should be a crime... but not on the same level as killing a fellow human.

Agreed, but mostly based on the point that I don't believe in the death penalty--at all.

Well in response to the original intent of the thread....

We were watching a guys' intramural game and saw one of our formal shirts on a girl that many of us know of...and not in a good way. I'm not sure that SHE is so awful, but her friends are notorious/infamous on campus and there IS something to be said about "guilty by association". Bottom line...it's not good advertisement for us. A Phi Mu commented on it before we got there and the girl's response was "Yeah, guess I'm an Alpha Gam for a night..."

Well, let me tell you how that went over with us. The Phi Mu said she kind of rolled her eyes and walked off after that, and we debated about saying something to her, but figured it was in our best interest to just shoot rather obvious dirty looks in the general direction instead of making a scene (because it would defintiely have turned into a scene). But it definitely didn't make any of us like her.

On a slightly off topic and happier note, I was working at a local store and went to scan a credit card...well what do you know it had red and buff roses on it, and turned out to be an Alpha Gam card...I got to have a nice chat with one of the alums of my chapter.

Original thread topics are overrated, I like when they get hijacked into a political discussion.
You dealt with that girl the right way though, nothing looks worse for a sorority then having girls get in fights.
