In this thread, we give random incorrect advice.

Ed Hardy and Affliction T-shirts are MUSTS for fraternity rush in the SEC.

Always drink tap water when in Mexico, you'll be fine.

Vodka is clear like water, so you can drink it like you would drink water.

Didn't get a bid but still want to be in a sorority?

Just go to the local Greek store and have a shirt made with the letters of your fave chapter on it!

Feeling extra spiffy, make a bag too.

Just wear them both around campus, you'll fit right in and the current sisters will love it.

While wearing said items, just randomly sit down with a group of them in the cafeteria.

Voila! Instant sisterhood. I guarantee it.

[This advice is not only good for NPC sororities, but NPHCs too.]

^^^What, you mean if one rejects you, you shouldn't go around campus bad mouthing them then try for a different sorority the next semester?

This is among CG's horror stories. Mexican vacation circa 1989. *shudders* I think I blacked out before we even made it to the hospital. So for the record, everything people say about tap water goes for ice cubes, too!!!

When watching a comedy in a packed movie theater, it is common courtesy to slap the stranger sitting to your left when a joke is really funny. They'll love that.

Also a do for if you don't get a bid to a sorority that you want-- come to GC and ask how you can go AI with them. Make sure that you're at minimum a sophomore, if not a second semester freshman, who has gone through rush only once and informally, and don't bother checking if your dream sorority even does AI first-- that's what GC experts are for! Remember, it's way smarter to start planning your AI journey early than to bother re-rushing and giving all the sororities on campus a chance.

When meeting your girlfriends father for the first time, a great way to impress him would be to tell him all of the freaky sexual fantasies you've had that involve his daughter. He will be extremely excited about this and probably encourage her to spend more time with you!

Oh yes. Most definitely. After all, you DESERVE to be in a sorority after everything you've accomplished in your 2 years of undergrad.

Also, if you're a legacy to a sorority on campus, you need to start a letter-writing campaign to the chapter over the summer detailing all of your awesome qualities and reminding the chapter that they HAVE to give you a bid. Why? Because you're a legacy, duh.

If you should happen to be cut fron your legacy chapter during recruitment, you and your mom/sister/aunt/etc. need to IMMEDIATELY drive to the chapter house and cause a HUGE scene.

You are a LEGACY and they have NO RIGHT to deny you a bid. That's like, discrimination.

When I was in college, one of my classmates told me she was guaranteed to be an XYZ (NPHC) because she was a legacy--her godmother was one. I didn't say anything.

[aephi alum]

Wear a Yankees hat or T-shirt in Boston. Extra credit if there's a Yankees vs. Sox game that day.

[christiangirl]

Always take a woman out to dinner on the first date. It gives you time to talk. Then tell her she owes you sex because you paid for the meal.

[Xidelt]

Wear Zoomba pants to a job interview. High-five the interviewer. Tell him or her you deserve a signing bonus because you're so "freakin' awesome."

[Dionysus]

If you're visiting St. Louis, you should wear Cubs gear. We will welcome you with open arms!

Go up to a Washington Redskins fan and tell them how lucky they are to have such a brilliant, great guy as Dan "Mr. Snyder to you" Snyder as the owner of their beloved 'Skins.
