I generally stay out of the "Made/Not Made" debates, but this is something that hurt my feelings shortly after I crossed: I'm at this guy I'm dating's church for Bible study. I see a soror--I saw her keychain. There are many people around us. We are exiting the sanctuary, as Bible study is over. ME: HI, SOROR! (My face is like this: ---------------> ) HER: Oh. :-/Hey. (She has a stank look on her face). She doesn't say much else. The guy I was dating--who was EXTRAORDINARILY negative and critical (which is why we didn't work out) and was of the mindset that BGLOs are "evil" so kindly pointed out afterwards, "Just because somebody is in your sorority doesn't mean they like you". Gee...thanks for your insight. So I guess i'd be wrong for agreeing with your then BF's perspective, huh ? I don't wear para for just this reason. I wouldn't be stank, I'd be cordial, but all that hugging and exchanging info? Nope, you wouldn't get that from me either. [/color] yea but it still makes me sad. I had a simlar situation with a sorhor I met at work. It ok NS you still have plenty of other sorors that would be happy to meet you.

I knew you wasn't made right when:
I met you and the only thing you could talk to me about was the Frat, the whole Frat, and nothing but the Frat. Niccuh I am NOT a neo. We gon' do the basics - and once we know that we are who we say we are - I'm moving on to something else. This isn't a cult.
When you told me not to challenge you because you had forgotten everything anyway - huh? Are you serious? What's your control number again? Does IHQ know about you?
When you didn't remember what year you crossed. You can NOT be serious.
When you hinted that you'd be willing to go to some Frat events if I would teach you some "stuff". LOL - negative - that's not happening. Having the right answers won't save you and I don't want to have to scoop you up out of the grass after you get pile driven when Bruhz detect fear in you.
When you got up during that dinner at Districts, as the keynote speaker, and starting using long excerpts from the freaking RIT in your speech in a room full of people who are NOT Bruhz? And then when you started getting crazy sideways looks, you respond by saying, "Now brothers, I know some of you are probably mad at me from reading from the rit". For real? So not only are you going to do it, you are going to tell people that you did it? Yes - true story.
My LB was heated. He was like, "well hell, since this dude done read in everyone in the room, might as well go show 'em the grip and greet them all as new Sons of Omega".

...after you get pile driven when Bruhz detect fear in you. Hmm, I'll have to check on that one. Judges? *buzzer sounds* I'm sorry, that's pile-drove. Pile-drived would also have been accepted.

If a local chapter of your Frat is throwing a party, and you see various chapters walking up to the door, getting dapped up and gaining entry into the party for free – But when you try to get in the party, the Bros make you pay admission AND won’t even stamp your hand so you can get back in if you have to run out to your car for something – Chances are, you weren’t made right. chances are better that THEY weren't made right. What kinda ignant ish is that?

This is precisely why I dont wear nalia as well, not even to greek functions. There are 500-11ty-7 Deltas. I have not the time nor energy nor the patience to speak to, greet, challenge, answer challenge, and kick info to all of them. Toss in the Bruhz and you have a full time job. On any given day I can see a couple dozen Sorors. No no no...Im not speaking to them all. No thanks..yep, meow pass me my soy milk. Now, at the church function, if she wouldve spoke to me I wouldve been receptive. That was kinda rude of her...even if she wasnt in a sorority.

I live in an area with like 3 colleges with in 20 miles of each other so I see a lot of deltas. Always wonder if they all greeted each other everytime they saw another soror.

Well, that would be different. Theoretically, that close, they should pretty much know each other...but its 2009 so that may be asking alot. In that case, speaking would be natural because you know them. If Im next to a Soror at a light or something, I may throw up a Mid. But Ive had people following me, honk, then cheese throw up a mid....you gotta be kidding me. 10 years ago I was pressed to speak...not so much now.

For the longest time I wore none (gave it all away to neo’s over the years). But my LB brought back some printed shirts from a trip to Atlanta he took and occasionally I’ll wear one. Now I’m not saying this is just an Alpha thing (cause I’m sure it’s not) but when you wear noticeable nalia – it just attracts A LOT of attention whether it’s unknown members that step to you, other greeks or even non-greeks coming to saying “Hey, you have a great group of brothers at my school”. It’s cool wearing nalia at functions, BBQ’s, fundraisers, or whatever where everybody knows each other. But just rocking nalia in your day to day activities (mall, shopping, movies, bowling alley, taking the kids skating, etc) can be a straight up CHORE. Depending on your region, you will get stopped several times throughout the course of your day…crazy

I got tired of interests coming up to me and I got tired of the responsibility that comes with wearing letters (seriously). Now I dont because I think older people with letters on look kinda strange. lol...I have my license plate and thats it. My kitchen is red and white and i have red accents in my house and a few elephants and pics but thats it. I dont need constant reminders that Im a Delta. I know what I am.

That recall of the "Beyond Underground" thread reminded me of yet another reason why I know you weren't made right...
I know you weren't made right when....
You can spit a bunch of homemade charges and pseudo-grips, and false history about your CHAPTER, but you don't know where your national executive offices are located, and who your national president and regional vice presidents are.
Once again, I've heard it with my own ears!!

So the receptionist comes up to, asks if you are an AKA, I say yes, then she proceeds to tell me that she goes to the university where I work (had to tell her this, she not I was apart of the undergrad chapter. Hello! You want to be apart of VV chapter and you don't even know who the members are? See, that's that stuff I'm talking about) and that she is GOING to be on the next line in the fall. OK, I know this is about members, but the underlined part reminded me of that.

Gotcha, you reminded me of a time I was visiting a chapter and a chapter founder came in and introduced herself to a group of current members. One of the members scurried off to find the President and another was like, "who she think she is? Marcia Fudge?" She didn't even recognize her chapter founder's name upon hearing it!!!!!!! When someone told her, her only response was, "She old. How was I supposed to know that" SMDH!!!!!!!!

True VP because I was talking to a guy in Texas who CLAIMED to be an Omega and he says that he came through Arkansas all the time. I asked him if he knew Baboo the Que and he said No. Now, I know you say you pledge in 95 but Baboo pledged in 85 and ERRR body knows him.
I figured he was perping and ending my convo before he started using my name as a reference. LOL!!
Some folks...you just KNOW.
