McDreamy or McSteamy?

Yep, and we had twin girls! Much later in life though.

I'll have to plead the fifth on McDreamy v. McSteamy. MrZTA72 was a pretty serious surgical resident. I, then, transferred to work in the OR, and the rest is history and happened probably before most of you GCers were born, hahaha.

GREEK is an awesome show, a TV show, entertainment, sensationalism, guilty-pleasure heaven. If people are dumb enough to watch the show and think that every single Greek organization in the country is like ZBZ or Kappa Tau, then they are PLAIN STUPID.

I would actually like to be like ZBZ because then we could have parties and have fun. I like doing all the community service and philanthropy stuff, but I would LOVE to be able to cut loose once in a while without boring over-dedicated sisters complaining about how it tarnishes our image. I joined DPhiE because we didn't get hazed AT ALL and I found 5 girls who like to have fun as well as do well in school. I didn't realize that we could never have fun rush parties and that we are paranoid about Nationals finding out if a sister had a Cosmo at a sisterhood dinner.

Again, if people think we are like the ZBZs I would be HAPPY!

Like, OMG, I like totally agree. We should totally be able to like, have drinks at our events like all the time, and have rush parties just like ZBZ on TV. Like, for realz.

Really?

Based on this post and the crap you pulled in the AGD Forum, I feel sorry for Delta Phi Epsilon.

I love how your sorority isn't "fun" because it doesn't party like a fictitious sorority on TV does.

You need to step out of the TV matrix.

That reads like a 2nd grade writing assignment.

"I like the tv show Greek. When I grow up, I want to be in the sorority on Greek. People think the show is bad but I think it's good. I wish real life was like Greek because then we could have parties and have fun."

I don't really think there's anything wrong with this reply. It's honest. I think a lot of collegiate members feel this way, actually. I went to a big state school known as a party school and I think it's very normal to wish we could get down like the frats do from time to time without getting in trouble.

Well, when she calls your sorority "crapola" and accuses them of hazing with no proof to back it up, it's kinda hard to see her posts objectively.

I won't even go on with her chosen username.

Hahahhaha, good points, good points. Oh my lordy. I should read more carefully.

Oh come on. This is Greek Chat. I didn't call the alpha gams crapola. I said that any organization that says it doesn't haze but then makes their pledges do things like take tests and carry binders and get signatures is crapola.

You're right, I don't know a lot about alpha gam, but I know that my sister is stressed because of the things she has to do to be initiated.

And okay, I like the show Greek, and I think that once in a while it would be cool if we could do silly things like have a party. But is it really necessary to cut me down and say that I write like a 2nd grader?

I like Greek not because of its portrayal of Greek Life but because it's a fun guilty pleasure. Do I REALLY want to be like ZBZs, with Franny and Evan and Casey and drama? Um, no. But it would be kinda cool to have a reputation as smart, classy, but fun girls.

You might want to educate yourself a little bit. I think it's safe to say that a national test prior to initiation is the norm, not the exception, among GLOs. At any rate, it is not uncommon.

It is not hazing; calling it hazing is crapola. Period.

Sorry, pumpkin, but I call 'em like I see 'em.

Correct. My sorority has one, as do several other NPCs. It's certainly not uncommon.
