Oooooooo i get it now. I thought she was only talking about his posts on this thread. My bad. But still...patronize me for being new to GC, not for being a new initiate. I'm kind of offended.

Still off it though!

I can patronize you for being a new initiate, especially a new EE initiate.

This may've been said to you already but, Soror, when you get more time in Delta you will learn that every inquiry isn't a genuine one. Our charge as Deltas isn't to jump whenever people say "jump."

I can't count how many times someone has come to me with a question that technically COULD or even SHOULD be answered, but they came at me wrong or in an inappropriate environment. If someone is curious they won't phrase their curiosity in a demeaning or belittling manner like Elephant Man started this thread.

Excellent post, Perfect 10. Very well said.

I wish more Greeks had the same attitude and mentality that you have. It would eliminate a lot of needless contention and hostility.

I heard "Where Do Broken Hearts Go" just now.

Did anyone else happen to catch the BET special about the movie tonight? Some of the actors talked about the greek life that is portrayed in the movie, saying that they learned a lot about it through making the movie. They spoke about the lifetime committment and also how stepping is only one aspect of being greek and that's not what it is all about. Now this is on the special so I don't know how acurately this thought will be portrayed in the movie...but I just wanted to know if anyone else saw the show and what your thoughts were...

When I heard Sway in the promo talking about "this is nothing seen before in stepping" (or words to that effect), I immediately thought "Lawd, it's a Drumline Tribute to Stepping"...the showbiz aspect will overwhelm the actual spirit of an authentic stepshow...

I hope it's better than I expect...
