    I am so glad that so many other Panhel ladies have beat me to the punch to inform the writer that carnations are their orgs’ flowers!! Our’s, too! Panhel (and carnation!!) love, ladies!

    Come ON. You can see every bone in her hand. The Phi Moo thing is old. That being said…sis, maybe you could have dipped a Q-tip in come polish remover and cleaned up the skin around your nails before you posted this pic :/

    Holy guacamole, IYacht!! Caaallllllm down! Foreverpink didn’t say ANYTHING about your letters! She clearly is talking about the usage of the word “‘Merica”. The word happens to be on your letters, but it’s also all over this website. I get it–it’s fratty–but fratty doesn’t always equate to classy or proper. She feels that the WORD is disrespectful, and I’m probably going to have to agree with her.

    And I don’t know about your national office, but I’m pretty sure that Phi Mu Headquarters wouldn’t appreciate “‘Merica” being plastered on our letters. Raise your standards*.

    *Unlike Foreverpink’s comment, MY comment IS indeed directed at your and your crafting decisions.

    Oh, I see. Censor/sensor. I got mixed up with a simple homophone error. Nothing was misspelled, just misused–And I caught it, myself, which is clearly an indication that I’m not as stupid as you would like to think I am. Furthermore, if I had spoken the sentence, I would have spoken it correctly and you would have been none the wiser. However, thanks for catching my little error, Miss TSM Editor in Chief. By your reply, it seems like you have genuinely earned your username.

    Oh, any by the way, your hateful reply is unwarranted. I was being kind and “siding” with PrettyinBows when you decided to attack. If I was being mean to her and had misspelled a word in the process, you’d be a little more justified in being rude; however, that is not the case.

    I’d rather have a grammar slip-up than to be cold and classless any day! Now get back into the kitchen and make ME a sandwich, “betch”.

    You’re correct that subordinate clauses should be separated with commas. However, the existence of a subordinate clause implies the existence of a main clause. If you take out “without dignity or grace”, you’re left with “winning…is not winning”. Neither of those can stand alone as a main clause. Therefore, since every sentence has a clause, and since all we’re left with is “without dignity or grace”, “without dignity or grace” MUST be the main clause and thus, needs no commas. But good try.

    Agreed, Pretty! I think many/all of the other “abbrevs” she mentioned are ridiculous and I’ve never heard of most of them, but I believe “totes” and “adorbs” are going to be part of my vocabulary for a long time. I’m a grad student and I have a professional career, so obviously I know how to sensor myself and use actual words when it counts, but casually speaking, I’m with you!

    I’m not in the same chapter, but the 24 hour danceathon for CMN is in fact a fundraiser–like a walkathon or any other -athon, we ask people (students, families, businesses, etc) to pledge to donate a certain amount of money per hour danced. We raise tens of thousands per chapter with this event and all of that money goes directly to CMN to purchase supplies and equipment, and to supplement other medical and financial needs of children and their families. Don’t be such a snarky critic…
