Frat Lingo For Dummies

You know when you're walking around on campus, and you pass two people and you hear a glimpse of their conversation? Sometimes, you can catch a pretty strange part, and as you keep walking you start to wonder what their conversation was truly about because of the unusual things you hear within the half a second you were walking by. Maybe, you even look back to catch they are wearing some weird Greek symbols on their back. Well, in the Greek community we have a couple weird words we use that it is very easy to fall behind. Instead of publishing an official dictionary of useless academic words you'll never use again after college, here is some Greek lingo for dummies.


Lit: When something is turning up or popping off.

Herman: Did you go to that pre-game last night?

Gabe: Nah, was it good?

Herman: That s**t got lit.

 

Spew: Verbal vomit. To speak of a topic you literally know nothing about and act as if you did.

Ian: ... and, therefore, since the man in the white coat was schizophrenic and was too busy dealing with his psychotic girlfriend whom he invented in his mind to realize what was happening around him, the president had no choice but to shoot him in the jawbone."

Professor: So you're trying to tell me that the President shot his brother during the Boston Tea Party?

Ian: To my knowledge sir, yes I am.

Professor: You're spewing out of your anus.

Sloot: The basic word for slut. The more "O"s in "sloot," the sluttier the girl is. Two "O"s is the minimum. You can add as many as necessary to add emphasis to just how slutty the girl is.

Jared: That b****h? Her and her friends are some slooooooooots, let me tell you.

Facey: When someone's face can be seen everywhere. It could be used to describe someone popular, but is mostly used to describe someone who seems to be here, there, and everywhere at the same time.

Emily: Hey Christy, I saw Danielle at Andrew's party last night, then on campus before class, and later on the way home from work. Man, she is so facey.

 

Sister: Someone who was initiated into the same sorority as you, whether at your school or around the country. They are not actually related to you by birth, but share a much greater bond over sisterhood.

Alex: Hey, you should totally come to my fraternity's party tonight, it's going to be too live.

Karrah: I'll totally see if I can stop by, seems like so much fun!

Alex: Yeah, tell your sisters about it, too.

Pre-game: To drink alcoholic beverages prior to a social engagement to make it more enjoyable. This, most often, happens because the party where you are going will be carding, and you are under age, or because you want to drink something hard to start your night off.

Rachel: You want to come to my semi-formal on Friday?

Kyle: Yeah, let's definitely pre-game it, though.


 

Swoop: The utilization of a presented opportunity to it's full potential. A successful night of taking home someone from the club.

Matt: Yo, you know that girl, Kayla? I swooped her so hard last night.

Shacker: A person who sleeps over after a one night stand, and walks home in the morning in their clothes from the night before.

John: Yo, who was that girl this morning?

Lewis: Eh, no one just a shacker.

Puke and rally: Drinking heavily until one drink throws you over; then you puke and rally and you're back in the game drinking as if the night is young.

Alex: S**t, that lost shot made me puke and rally!

TJ: You OK, dude?

Alex: Yeah, good to go, now where is my beer?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
