> [@Jragon](#): > > You guys protesting the “I can’t do what I want? I’m glad I never joined a sorority” have to remember that she mentioned that it was only for the week where that event was going on. So in light of that she has a point… an incredibly belligerently expressed point, but a point. But do you think she actually motivated anyone with that email? I don’t know if this woman was supposed to be responsible for the activities she described or if she was just one of the crowd. But she came across as somebody who had no control of the situation and nobody’s going to follow somebody like that. If you want to fix things, you work on fixing them. You don’t just scream about how mad you are that they’re broken. ---

Katherine Heigl … no, kidding, kidding. A young Bette Midler could have done it, remember how she said “bugfuckah!” in that movie she did with the former Cheers star … Shelly Long? And Emma Stone … prolly could do a nice job. But Kathleen Turner of Body Heat fame with that husky voice of hers … she could curl the paint of the sorority’s porticoes with her voice and those words! ---

I fucking love this girl. I would hang out with her if she weren’t 19 years old. This is my favorite part: “I don’t give a fuck if you SOR me, I WILL FUCKING ASSAULT YOU.” > [@Miller](#): > > Terry Gross. Oh my gods. I LITERALLY laughed out loud. ---

[quote=“Cat\_Whisperer, post:76, topic:656104”] Judy Dench is much too classy for that rant. Same with Maggie Smith. Nothing is quite as astonishingly show-stopping as a cut-glass BBC-accented British Lady spitting out an expletive. Especially the C word… I have little understanding of the Sorority scenario, having attended University in Ireland, but this is one ugly email… ---

It may be good in a Liberal Arts sense, but as an instrument of communication it sucks. She spends the first half saying how everybody has a duty to go and slut it up for this 4 day week. Then the whole second half about who should not go. I feel for the poor confused awkward retards who don’t know which half to believe. ---

I want to know what kind of “weird shit” people are doing during the day. Going to class? Also, those pictures of her twitter someone posted says she’s a TA for English 101 (and possibly slept with one of the students…), so she damn well better be able to write. ---
