Ten points for use of the term “ASS HATS” (though I think it properly should be one word). ---

In a thread where a woman’s vitriol (however entertaining) is the subject, I’m thinking overt sexual remarks are out of place. The words “fuck” and “suck” aren’t being used in regards to sex and it seems like these responses are being made because the thread deals with sororities: an all-female group. This isn’t a warning, just a reminder that everyone needs to be mindful of off-topic remarks, including those which have at their base a knee-jerk view of women as sex objects. Again: NOT a warning. A reminder. ---

Yeah, but even my Grandma would chuckle if someone stated that “boys don’t like girls who suck.” Doesn’t seem at all out of place for a MPSIMS thread. ---

I read some of the comments to the linked article. For everyone who thinks this girl is a hoot, I bet they’d disagree if they actually had to deal with her personality all the time. That bossy, condescending superiority can become really grating in a marriage or at work. I’d rather gnaw my own foot off. ---

As a Maryland alumnus and lifelong Marylander, I would just like to note that 24% of the undergrads are from out of state (and make up a large percentage of students living on campus), and most of them are from New York, Connecticut, and _New Jersey_. ---
