I was (am) a Pike back in undergrad.

We were your typical jocks and drunkards who scored a lot of ass and pissed off all the GDI's.

11/27/2010 10:38:50 AM

wtf is a GDI??

And nothing against frats, because I've had/have plenty of friends that were in them...but I'm really glad I didn't go down that road.

11/27/2010 10:53:27 AM

what the fuck is a Pike? Pika?

11/27/2010 10:54:18 AM

you really called them gdis?

^^i think it stands for god damn independant.


people who didn't go greek....

Ha...that's ridiculous.

I feel like PKAs were pretty average when I was at State. They had a lot of members and had big parties...but they had a lot of members because they were pretty easy to get into and weren't very selective. They had a good share of degenerates, which this thread seems to prove. My roommate scored all of his drugs from PKAs.

can you only get the stuff from the retailers list?

11/27/2010 12:14:03 PM

i have only ever purchased online or at varsity men's wear, but they don't seem to sell but a handful of the items online for whatever reason

[Edited on November 27, 2010 at 12:20 PM. Reason : ]

11/27/2010 12:16:16 PM

hmmmm, ok. i was looking online and couldnt find a lot of the stuff

11/27/2010 12:18:57 PM

I'll never trust a man in a bow tie. Unless he's my defense attorney. Then he's perfect.

11/27/2010 12:22:43 PM

Greek life's a waste of fucking time if you're at University for the reason you're supposed to be at University

if you're there because we treat universities as tech/professional school, then I guess it's a good idea because it gets you sweet social connections. Frat connections seem to hook up a fair amount of talentless idiots with decent jobs

I was more or less kidding. I have nothing against people who didn't go greek, and I can understand why a lot of people have a stigma against frat boys/soro girls. GDI was just a term thrown around for people who didn't want to join, it can be used derogatorily. I used it to simply describe people who aren't greek and seem to have a beef with it.

It's funny when people write off greek life as "buying your friends". The money often goes to productive shit like alcohol, parties, housing and other events. Joining a social club like a frat exposes you to many more people and opportunities that you may otherwise have not.

You don't necessarily have to join one to be exposed to said social benefits, but it sure does help. Most of my previous jobs were found through fraternal networking. I also received a lot of experience managing a budget, recruiting and organizing a large group of people because I put myself in leadership roles. It has paid off pretty well on my resume and with my skill set.

With all that said... It's pretty easy to hate on greeks if you're a GDI. There's a lot of nonsense, debauchery and overall stupid shit that gets done and portrayed by greeks. However, unless you've been in a Frat/Sorority it's pretty hard to understand how great it is.

11/27/2010 1:33:30 PM

You'd do that for me?

11/27/2010 1:50:40 PM

i think sororities are great and i was never in one.

i never had a desire to be in one.
and i still don't.


i honestly am too busy for my own good.

No offense, but that sounds exactly like "buying your friends."

11/27/2010 3:04:01 PM

that would apply if anyone with the funds would be accepted. there still has to be a mutual like between the frat and the individual who may join.

11/27/2010 3:17:01 PM

Greek Life= continuation of high school

good or bad depending on how much you liked high school

you mean bitches?

11/27/2010 3:30:36 PM

i could hardly afford college, so joining a greek organization was never even an option.

i love hearing guys seriously use the term GDI though. makes my heart giggle.

11/27/2010 3:42:52 PM

i'd rather date rape on my own terms

how do you figure? it sounds like paying for rent, food, and parties (which can be bigger and better because you have a large amount of people contributing). I have several groups of friends that were able to occasionally pull something together like a frat party (ie: beer olympics, band parties with 3+ kegs, etc), but those were few and far between.

I mean, what would you say about a group of friends who get a house together, split rent, go in on food together, and split the costs of throwing parties? Would you call those guys "buying each other friendships" or would that be a case of organization towards a common goal?

11/27/2010 4:02:36 PM

you know how you pay to have bands play at a house and have a keg?

you get decent bands and charge a few bucks at the door

bands get paid, people get beer, everyone's happy

it's called a house show, and there are at least two every week in raleigh

you don't need frat resources or a ton of friends to make things happen

you just have to want to do it

11/27/2010 4:18:42 PM

or you can pay the band with dues and provide free booze to those that come to a party...

11/27/2010 4:23:13 PM

yes, but that's much more expensive

and people who won't pay a middling few dollars for some beers are probably not people i want to hang out with

11/27/2010 4:24:18 PM

I loved being in a sorority. I had wanted to be in one since I went to basketball camp in middle school at UNC and saw all the Greek houses and how much fun they were having.

And I love this website - http://totalfratmove.com. It's a little over the top and ridiculous, but in a hilarious way.

11/27/2010 4:24:43 PM

I'm not saying one is better than the other- I'm just saying it is a good way to have a party... If you tell people "free booze, free band," you will more than likely get a bigger turnout than saying "5 dollar cover, 1.50 beer, for those over 21."


I enjoyed frat parties, and I enjoyed going to bars when bands played- they are different things though

11/27/2010 4:26:11 PM

you don't charge for the beer

you pay the door...that pays for the beer and the bands and some for the hosts

or BYOB
