Kappa Gamma Swiddles will most likely need a loveable, huggable mascot and I think I can fill that job nicely. Plus, I would make a killer addition to the intramural basketball team. We would kick the snot out of Delta Lambda Coldfire.
Cool! Like one of those race car beds? Or maybe some kind of My Little Pony motif. Goin’ to college full time, gettin’ a big girl bed…our little Swiddles is all grown up! sniff
I was seriously considering a canopy bed, Lux, then I realised that I was just bitter that I never had one when I was 8. As it is, I think I’ll go for the free frame deal, get a headboard from the unfinished furniture store, and stencil this Dorothy Parker poem onto it. I’ve been watching a lot of Christopher Lowell lately, I think I can do it.
Kappa Gamma Swiddles is proud to announce a new pledge: Minxmom! We’re hoping her Minxcubs don’t attack Swiddle’s cat, though.
Kappa Gamma Swiddles is also proud to announce our new mascot, Mully! As Swiddles is a lazyass, Mully will be the captain of the Intermural basketball team. Any interested players are encouraged to contact him, at his home on the crappy futon in the livingroom.
Basketball? I can confidently say that I am an absolute hoops-afficiando… THAT is somewhere I can contribute, mighty mascot Mullinator.
We’ll definitely take those snobbish frat-boys around the block on the court, eh?
Long live Kappa Gamma Swiddles. Do we have an official handshake or anything? Official drink? Etc.
Is it too late to be a pledge? Even if it isn’t, I’ll go ahead and apply anyway. I don’t take up much space, you can just prop me in the corner or something.
Can I call the deck? I always wanted to be in my own sarcastic sorority…
OK, update. New Pledges include the hoopster known as loud mouthed mime, who gets to curl up under the kitchen table, NTG who gets the little alcove in my livingroom, and Falcon who gets the deck. At this point, I think we’re going to need a rival sorority or frat to pull pranks on. Any takers?
I wanna be in your sorority! Can I be the house mother with the bouffant hairdo who gives all the sisters obvious advice?
Congratulations, Swiddles! Enjoy college… although I’m not sure how you’re going to with such a crowded apartment!
New Pledge! Magdalene’s home will be…er…I’ve run out of room. You can either sleep on the deck with Falcon (that has the most room) or double up with someone. Your choice of roomie. I’m feeling generous.
I have thought of a niche for myself, and thus would like to rush KGS. Not only does it appeal to my sense of the perverse to join a sorority, I can be the intramural b-ball team’s official smack-talker. I’ll wear the tight sweater, and carry a megaphone, but intstead of cheering on our team (it’s a sarcastic sorority, we don’t go in for that rah-rah crapola), I shall insult the game, physical characteristics, and lineage of the opposing teams. I can also heckle the refs and the opposition’s fans, should it be called for.
I brought this bottle of tequila, in case anyone wants to haze me. 
Did someone say TOGA PARTY!!!
(don’t mind me, i’ll just be in the corner convincing
Neuro-trash that she’s not really a lesbian.)
Lux, you’re definately in. I’m a sucker for a gimmic. And what with your ties to law enforcement, we can be sure that our house parties rock sorority row uninterrupted! I guess you’ll have to share a closet or something. I think Flyp accually has the most room, you might want to talk to him.
Congrats, Swiddles.
Now, don’t look back. Put all you can into your colleging.
No regrets.

You’ll have to convince me I’m not a light fixture first…
Sounds like you’re doing something good for yourself. Don’t know if you mentioned it anywhere else, but what are you going to major in?
[Sorry 'bout the slight hijack, Swiddles, but i’m bumping your thread. :D]
When I turn you on, you don’t light up literally, therefore you can’t be a “light fixture (i.E. Floor lamp).” (Silo starts drawing the equations of light on the wall). (NTG takes the lampshade off, and proceeds to… (do something really dirty ;))).

Swiddles, do whatcha gotta do. I’m in college too. Have fun, be successful, and make mucho $$$$. I was wondering what the last guy was, …what’s your major?
I’m in C. S.
thinks to herself, I’ve seen Lux’s picture…
Hey! He can share the deck with me! Honest! Don’t mind a BIT! Really!
Do you need a guy who can fix lots of stuff when it breaks? And create elaborate and ineffable pranks to play on other frea–I mean, Greeks? I can sleep standing in a corner (or with anyone who’ll have me)
Congratulations, Swiddles!
You know, Falc, that’s the second time you’ve mentioned seeing my picture as a good thing (you bet yer ass I keep a mental catalogue of that kind of stuff). I gotta wonder what picture you’re looking at, and ask if I can get a copy. Check again, does the caption say “Lux” but the filename say “rcrowe.jpg”? 
Oh no! Upon re-reading the above, I realize I’ve turned my own smack-talking skillz against myself! I’m in a state of ontological higgledy-piggledy!
