Social media is a cold world!!!

I hope I was not brash in my assessment of how people view members of Omega Psi Phi. To be fair my pops is one and my mom is Delta Sigma Theta but I had little interest in joining. But pops was on that same shit your pops said. He was like "you can whatever frat you want", but don't come around my house with that Black/Gold, Red/White, and Blue/White shit. He was on some straight Warriors shit like when the Orphans asked them to drop their flags:lol:.
No u kno it's a sigma between every delta theta famo u u omit that part......

Rush night fall 2000

Eggnog some nasty mess to me.
 
Life choices fam when you are young and dumb. I was either going to be a que or gdi. I knew this at a very early age. That TAX shit had a couple of lines that I knew of and most were cast offs from other Fraternity lines. They were as sad as you could imagine lol.

The bad part is that there is an intake process so technically there is nothing stopping anyone from being a part of any fraternity or sorority of their choice. However intakes are not well received on the yards by those who choose to do a traditional line for universal respect no matter which yard or which old school style traditionalist. Personally I think the intake process really forced frats and soros to go underground even more:smh:.

I am all for people not being discouraged because of an over abusive big brothers or big sisters who personally take issues with pledges and make their line life hell so he or she would quit. The sad truth is that a lot of good brothers and sisters did not make it because of personal agendas against them (and some of these are would be legacies). So what the legacies are forced to do is to just go grad chapter. Infact I know a lot of people(especially legacies) who just waited for grad chapter because line life on campus is no joke especially at an HCBU.

I am not in no Pan Hellenic council so I can't speak on what the 8 historically black ones do in practice. But I would like to see lines made public again but the old heads have to lay off the extreme heavy handed physical and verbal abuse. I mean I seen cats get stomped out in public at college functions by big brothers while the rest are heading for the hills with my own eyes:eek2::lol:.

People I know who pledged and crossed over always said their worst experience is getting isolated and kidnapped by heads on older lines or current ones who bring in the heads from older lines:smh: or when lines from other schools come for like football and basketball games or events every last one said they knew :fuckyousay::raincloud::sick::sad::scared: an asswhoopin:beatyourass: :beat::unconscious:was coming.

I was thinking the exact same thing, but your being one I'm glad you said it.
We clean up nicely though. :) I can kick in the hood or converse with the CEO of my company. I have friends that just got out of the poky and friends that built million dollar cribs. When I was on the yard, we had bruhz that were the SGA president to banned from dorms, lol. When I go to clave I bring a three piece suit and my purple mask and gold boots lol. I am ready for all occasions.

You make some excellent points. Just on my observations there are too many cats that lack mental toughness. Pledging had more to do with mental fatigue. There are some physicality but the night after night grind of pledging is the worse. Not seeing your girlfriend, not eating right, running every where, learning masses amount of info, existing in a single room with your musty ass lbs, and step practice is a mental beating.

It takes focus and toughness. I don't know if it is because of being single parent raised. Or they just have too much of everything without the need to earn it. Or I am just getting old and jaded but new ninjas are not built for overcoming adversity of any kind. I teach millennials and I am still very active in the frat and these young dudes are different than I was at that age.

ya I seen A LOT of self-entitled young folks these last few years...feel that everything should be given to them but not willing to put in the effort to get it...god forbid there's a bump in the road along the way...the fucked up thing tho is from my experience it's their parents encouraging this mindset

That is the only time it is hard to surpress the Que. At 46, I will still set it owt in a tux if need be. I just hope that it won't come on at some kind of corporate event because they would see a different side of me fo sho.

Fam, 100% cosign. It is like they lose the ability to improvise. If I don't give them instructions down to the letter, they are loss like a mofo. Shit is crazy the amount of hand holding it takes. I am like, fuck! You are an engineer, go engineer some shit!

god I can't even imagine how much worse it must be dealing w/ adults like that :smh:
 
I have 18 geeks that work for me and these cats have no idea. Sometimes I find myself just grinning inwardly.
That's how the men in my family are. And we just laugh. One of my cousins use to be buck wild and still can be but you follow him in his day to day laugh and you'd be amazed. But people are quick to judge based on a few letters

That is so true. They confuse this tax paying citizen incorrectly. I am just hiding in plain site. Coincidentally, I have a bruh name buck wild, but now we call him buck mild, but any one that know him, knows he is still buck wild.

Great summation because going underground ain't for everyone. Intake and grad chapter is actually best for the people you described.

I see this in advertising all the time. Ask some of these millennials what options do we have when shit is going wrong and they look at you clueless.

Had to get a commercial spot to one of the networks and the FTP that most networks use went down. Dudes were like "What are we gonna do?!?" My old analog ass told them put the file on a flash and take the subway FOUR STOPS and drop it off at the ABC building.

Dumb fucks.

yep...no problem solving skills whatsoever...sad shit...I try to instill it in them and it's something I figured kids would "work out" as they got older...seems like they're just growing up to be just as helpless in the workplace
 
The hurt on his dad's face....that man's heart is broken!!



Plus he is at the University of Houston. In Houston, the mayor is an Alpha, the two black male city council members are Alphas, the ex-city comptroller is an Alpha, the lawyer from Houston who was over the construction of the Martin Luther King memorial in D.C. is an Alpha, the state representative for the district UH is in is an Alpha, the state representative for Mo-City area in Fort Bend County is an Alpha....well, you get the point.....

There are prominent people from all 8 of the black greek organizations in high positions and distinction. At the end of the day the young man did not want to be a Que. I don't think it had much to do with which Alphas were prominent in Houston.

Of course there are; I neither said nor implied there aren't. Just stated facts that may have influenced his decision.

When I pledged Alpha many years ago at the University of Texas at Austin, I remember seeing examples of men who became mentors who influenced MY decision. I don't know the young man, maybe you do. I won't presume to know what had to do with his decision, but I do know that the Alphas are very well represented in Houston and maybe he saw that and then again, maybe he didn't.

I gave a kid an assignment that takes about 2 weeks to complete and at week 3 he is trying to show me some personal sketches. I am like dude you are about to get fired, fuck your sketches. The problem is, it is more work to get rid of him then to hire him. Documenting incompetence is a job all by itself and don't even talk about the victim card he will play after the process begins.

Bruh it is like pissing in the wind sometimes.
