Yeah frat boys are all evil.
They all get stuff from there parents and drink beer all day.
Oh, don't forget they date rape and cheat too.
It's just a sticker, and as stupid as you may think it is
it says nothing about a person that has it.

The show before my first show. Brings back memories.

I agree, it's just a sticker like any other sticker.
stereotypes dont come out of thin air, my friend. thats not the point
though.
the sticker is almost always next to the dead sticker, which as i
pointed out, it hippie *shit*.
dont like it? i dont care.

no, because you have grateful dead stickers you felt personally
offended. i dont like the dead; i think they suck. their music sucks,
and ill say it sucks, because i think it sucks. i think hippies suck,
and ill say that too. i live on the end of town with 90% of the
psuedo-hippies that go to school here. trust me, they suck. defend em
all you want, but a hippie is still a hippie.
and that hippie will most likely suck.
oh, and frat boys suck too, but thats another story. as far as whatever
that one guy said about them, its pretty much all true. you should see
all the rules and regulations against frats at my school. know why the
university made all those rules? cause frats suck. too much alcohol,
too much promiscuity, too much disturbance and disorderly conduct.
its funny how people get their panties all in a bunch when someone says

I'm all growed up, but I happen to agree with Ben (uh-oh, world is ending,)
the majority of frat boys I've ever encountered seem to be the one who need
maturity.
His opinion is valid, whether you like it or not. Whether or not it's based
in reality could be argued. Not by me - I've seen frat crap enough to have
a good idea.
Eric
> frats suck.
You should put a *most* or *in many cases* with these statements.
The lack of them implies that you think ALL hippies suck or
that ALL frats suck, and that just is not true.
I mean you don't know all the hippies or all the frat boys.

peter,
get a life. i dont mean to be stepping on anyones toes, but i see i
broke a couple of yours.
i think hippies suck. i think frats suck. i dont care if you or anyone
else feels different. i dont hate them, i dont think they should all be
dead, i dont think they should all move away from me, and i dont even
think that i have any more right to existence than they do. and really,
who the hell am i to tell them how to live their lives?
but that doesnt change the fact that they suck.
i base my opinions on personal, real world decisions. i go the school
which has the largest greek community *anywhere*. ('sides greece, but
thats a different greek) i know what i see. i live in an area where
90% of the people are around me are hippies. i know what i see.
from what i see, i think they suck.
get the point?
small hippie anecdote: the vehicle of choice for the new generation,
pseudo-hippie is none other than an SUV, with a model year larger than
the year of their high school graduation.
that is one of the reasons these hippies suck. if youre gonna be a
hippie, at least have the fuckin balls to be a hippie, not some half ass
wannabe.
strangely enough, the same vehicle classification can be applied to frat
boys.

I wasn't offended. Think what you like. I think you listened to Casey

No. Rules are made to protect the dumbasses from themselves. I knew of a

Yes - the US ad slogan circa 1990 was Fahrvergnügen but a later bumper
sticker (I have one) did a pun on it and said Fukengrüven and had the
little stick guy in a sort of dancing pose.
BTW - the little stick guy actually has a name - Otto Bahn. :-) Saw
it at the bottom of a VW ad where it was mentioned that VW had a
trademark on it.

does it matter? i could go on and on about my personal experiences with

What, exactly, do they suck?
That was the most sorry ass attempt at a flame I've ever seen in my life.It
should go more like this:
People in fraterneties are fucking sissies that are afraid of the real
world.They are away from mommy and daddy and the feel the need for
acceptance,so they join a frat.The "You can humiliate me all you want just let
me in your club"mentality say's it all.I used to live in a college town and I
would see these losers every year,Pledging,s/b "Pleading" for acceptance by
other losers that think that safety comes in numbers.Frats are for PU55IES
PERIOD.It's like the same reason people start smoking,They start because they
think it looks cool,And they want acceptance.To have a club is one thing if you
have a hobby or something,But for a bunch of people to have a club
for..............What? is pretty lame.It's just a way for losers to make
friends because they can't do it in the real world by themselves.The more I go
on with this flame,The more I realize it too sucks.So let me just end now

yes. thats exactly what im trying to do. im actually going to write my
thesis on why frat boys suck. people worldwide will use me as a
credible source when they do their own research to expose the suckyness
(or is that suckieness?) of frat boys. i will become legendary.

Fill us in, what mis-information?
Stereotypes exist, because a large percentage of the group fit into it.
I believe that you should be aware of the different stereotypes, but they
should not change how you treat people.
At first I treat people the way I want to be treated, and then I treat them
like they treat me.
Keep in mind that 99% of your DNA is the same as everyone else, and that
includes hippies and frat boys.

someone who understands, finally...
ive been thinking about this one too...how many people here
(specifically white people, with this example) felt almost ashamed after
watching american history X, because a part of you knew that some of the
[skinhead] issues brought up in that movie had some real solid
reasoning? ...and you couldnt believe that you agreed with some of the
things the skinheads were fighting for?
i felt that way at first, but now i realize that i can share opinions
with many different types of people, without being associated with them.
i have no problem saying--admitting--that i agree with some "different"
mentalities. im not a skinhead, im not a racist, and i dont believe in
starting violence. ...but i do understand that everyone in this world
has a different background--a different upbringing--and the way they
arrive and come to terms with their thoughts and feelings, and the way
they act upon those feelings, can be entirely different than how my
thoughts and feelings propagated, and what i do about them, even though
those thoughts and feelings are very similar.

that is completely different issue here, peter, but i suppose i could
clear many assumptions about me, which probably stem from way too much
improbable cause.
i dont treat "the offenders" any better or worse than i treat everyone
else. unless, of course, theyre assholes....and thats usually the case
with frat boys. its a little different with hippies...they *usually*
dont bother anyone. those hippies dont suck nearly as bad as the ones
that are always demonstrating for this or that. pot, tibet, trees (i.e.
any environmental issues), opposing some sort of construction...you name

not really. you disagree with what i say? thats fine with me. its not

Well put
Justin
Blush Blush Welcome to my kingdom of "Assholia"
Let me tell you why I hate golf.
When I was in high school, I worked at the driving range of a municipal golf
course located in a very affluent town. I drove the golf cart with the
expanded metal caging all around it that pushed the "ball picker". Anyways,
I would start at the end of the range, and work my way in. These rich,
drunk, cheating on thier wives, golf club swinging pricks would take pot
shots at me on a regular basis. They thought it was funny when they'd hit
the cart and scare the crap out of me. Then, when I'd come in to empty the
picker, they'd have the nerve to walk up to me, holding thier basket out,
and say "how about a couple extra balls?" These sauced-out white collar
assholes had more money than I'll ever dream of, and they're schmoozing
balls from the range boy!!! What dicks.
Had a bad taste in my mouth for golf ever since.

Then there's guys like me - public course, crummy clubs, x-out balls
and a smile for all the folks who bust their asses to give me a "good
walk spoiled." There are assholes everywhere, and golf is one of
those places. Just like the VW NG, and everywhere else.
Don't let the idiots make your decisions - there are plenty of real
folks playing golf out there...

I was gonna say something about giving other people the benefit of the
doubt, but I think the above says it all.<g>
Damn straight. Saw a guy in a pickup down in Eugene, OR (very liberal town)
with a sticker on the back bumper that said "Meat is tasty, Fur is warm." (A
takeoff on the "Meat is Murder" stickers everywhere in veggie-land.) Some
guys in a pink-triangled Microbus pull up and start cussing at him and
calling him a "puppy-killer." (?!?!?!?) On one hand, I agree with the
pickup-guy - being omnivorous myself. :) OTOH, he's tooling around with a
big sticker that pokes fun at people's closely-held beliefs. My opinion is
that putting ANY kind of sticker on your car that doesn't come from a
sponsor is an invitation for others to comment.
Every used car I've owned has required some sticker-removal, bumper and
otherwise. Why bother projecting to the world what affiliations you have?
Why invite the trouble, if the potential for trouble is there? Some folks
are nuts, and may do damage to your car if you are "wearing the wrong
colors." Just something to ponder...

No, I was looking for something more imaginative.

I'm all about peace. Let's bring it about via superior firepower.
I had an Acura Legend once...it sucked.

Put em in the freezer overnight first! Yum.
Don't try it with the Samoas though, you'll end up sucking on a frozen
cookie until the carmel gives way ;-)
Yeah, I'm a samoa GSC kinda guy.... THEN the thin mints.

crap!!!! ;-)

Is that right? Saids who? Mr. Tootsie Roll Owl? ;-) Very well back to
the topic at hand...eating a tootsie roll pop while driving a VW, any
dangers in doing both at the same time? Would it impose any driving
impairments? ;-)
-vwgirl = )
Only if the airbag goes off while you got a tootsie roll pop in your
mouth...<GULP!>
Of course we can! I thought we were all getting along just dandy. You mean
you don't feel the brotherly and sisterly VW love that's in the air? Shame
on you! Here, have a tootsie pop on us... ; - )
Okay, whoever was driving took a wrong turn some 8 posts back and this error
has lead us to a most interesting dicussion on Tootsie Pops. It's time to
'fess up...who was driving? It's okay, we'll forgive you (at least I will).
I responded to a post about some Thin Mints Girl Scout cookies so it's
definitely not me. ; - )
