what else is of the same nature as "terrorism" and "child abuse"?

yeah I stopped reading when I got to that phrase

― Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 23 February 2007 22:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh man, we could play games like "Articulate, or Clutch Your Purse?" and "Why Do All These Chinamen Keep Saying They're From Korea?"

― nabisco, Friday, 23 February 2007 22:50 (seventeen years ago) link

I think those are the games my grandparents play when they have people over.

― max, Friday, 23 February 2007 22:51 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh but the best game would be to sing along to songs with the n-word and then look around sheepishly/listen to the awkward silence.

5 public schools use 'redskins'!!!

― deej, Friday, 23 February 2007 22:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Maybe their mascots are potatoes?

― nabisco, Friday, 23 February 2007 22:59 (seventeen years ago) link

a potato skin would be a fun mascot

<i>why tacos, tequila, and pinatas might be reasonable elements of a Mexican theme party </i>

i seriously think these features should be part of every party, ever.

"Okay, it's time for the valentine's pinata!"

WHY U BRAKE HEART

― Shakey Mo Collier, Friday, 23 February 2007 23:40 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh my god, the valentine's pinata would be a great thing to sell to bitter single people who hate valentine's day.

― accentmonkey, Saturday, 24 February 2007 21:38 (seventeen years ago) link

Ha: a friend of mine once creeped out her party by pulling out a heart-shaped pinata an ex-boyfriend had sent her and beating the living crap out of it. But then there was candy, so it was all good again.

― nabisco, Saturday, 24 February 2007 21:45 (seventeen years ago) link

the v-day party i went to this year had a heart piñata!

― s1ocki, Sunday, 25 February 2007 00:14 (seventeen years ago) link

Where the hell-heck is Ethan on such a thread?

― Abbott, Sunday, 25 February 2007 07:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Their mascots look like the animated insecty potatoes in that one Devo video.

delta zeta evicts the fat chicks

― max, Sunday, 25 February 2007 19:33 (seventeen years ago) link

i mean, nothing idiotic that college kids do now really shocks me (since im in college), but i can't believe that there are adults who think they can just get rid of the ugly/fat/nerdy girls and no one will, like, notice??

― max, Sunday, 25 February 2007 19:35 (seventeen years ago) link

oh wait they're ex-sorority sisters

― max, Sunday, 25 February 2007 19:36 (seventeen years ago) link

It's nice to see that half the people they decided to keep quit anyway!

What they don't realize is that the one fraternity of goofy electrical-engineering guys and the one sorority of pudgy smart girls = the best possible P.R. for the greek system, in the eyes of everyone else.

― nabisco, Sunday, 25 February 2007 19:40 (seventeen years ago) link

I've got a proudly feminist/activist friend who's a Zeta, I'm curious to hear what she thinks of this.

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Sunday, 25 February 2007 19:47 (seventeen years ago) link

What the fuck is wrong with them, the NYT photo of the evicted women makes them all look HAWT!! There are some serious racks in evidence.

"all" is a bit of an exaggeration.

ginger one on the bottom rocks

at my university the delta zeta's had the same image problem. if they kicked out all the fatties here, the sorority wouldn't have any members left.

I LOVE going to a school where ~5% of the student body participates in Greek life. :D

― jessie monster, Sunday, 25 February 2007 22:08 (seventeen years ago) link

my school has probably 10% greek life shit, and its predictably irritating. the white fraternities are full of d.b.s and the three non-rugby sororities are just as irritating. i love to death the rugby sorority, though.

― max, Sunday, 25 February 2007 22:31 (seventeen years ago) link

co-worker girls i was hanging out with last night were comparing their frat party experiences and speculating on who they think "roofied" them -_-;;

Do the USC football players who set up an "Arian" Facebook group count?

Sure.

seven months pass...

Hamline University has suspended six players from its football team for donning blackface and body paint to dress up as African tribesmen for an off-campus Halloween party, an incident that has sparked a discussion about racial sensitivity at the St. Paul liberal arts college.
...
The university is investigating the incident to find out whether the students violated policy, Hamline spokesman JacQui Getty said Sunday. Two cheerleaders who helped the players with their costumes and reportedly posted photos of them on the Internet social-networking site Facebook with a caption about "spooks" are also under investigation.
Sophomore Tasha Simmons, a friend of the students involved, said the matter has been blown out of proportion and taken out of context. "People misunderstood," she said.
...
Simmons said the costumes -- which included black Under Armour-type clothing and tight black pants -- were creative. "It wasn't supposed to be offensive whatsoever," she said.
Using "spooks" also was not meant to offend anyone, she said. "If you would have seen them, you would have been spooked out. Most (students) don't correlate that term with the '50s," she said. "These are not the sort of people in any way who would discriminate against anyone."
