Pretty solid, Bryan. Maybe add something about how they do lots of volunteer work carrying little old ladies out of burning buildings?

Can we start doing a little contest where we predict exactly what these inevitable "apologies" will say before they're released? Winner gets a bucket full of the apologists' tears or something. I'll start:
"... he has dinner with his (white) grandmother once a week and helps out our (white) church. He'd never do something wrong."
I absolutely believe the fraternities (and mob mentality to an extent) encourage the behavior, but it's awful to think that, even if the Greek system is eliminated, these are still thoughts that exist in these kids' heads. Like, I'm guessing they thought similar thoughts when they were seniors in high school, these…
"...but my son can't be racist. He's always been such a good boy"
They're white southern "gentlemen" at a southern university who joined an old line fraternity.
Awwww, bless their hearts. It's like they wanted to get caught being dickweasels.
Hi. Just a general note: If some troll replies to your comment, please tell him not to contact you again. If he does contact you again, report him immediately for harassment. We need Gawker to note the prevalence of misogynist trolls attacking us here and refusing to respect any boundaries.
No, reporting them will not…
WOW. Just f*cking wow.
Their last post congratulates the class of 2018 for joining Pi Kappa Phi, which, they write, "reinforces academic pursuits, gentlemanly behavior, development of leadership, personal ethics, and offers the advantages of team effort and support."

I personally don't think the lobster on her pussy is real. But Page Six attests to its veracity:
How are you best friends with this person
My best friend is a nurse and she tried to use how shitty her job is as an excuse not to tip. She thinks restaurant workers don't deserve it. I tried to explain that two wrongs don't make a right, and yes her job is hard but she also earns twice what waitresses earn. She just said they were lazy and didn't deserve any…
I really think 20% is fine. I was never, ever upset about 20% — that's the standard. More is always welcome, but not required, even for the best service. And look, if I legit screwed up (like say, forgot to put your order in so it took forever to get your food), I didn't expect 20% at that point! That's cool, I…
From her bio: "She runs, reads, and eats way too much and is passionate about humanism..."
She doesn't even use any of the somewhat understandable arguments against tipping (which are still bullshit, but at least you can see where they fucking come from). "How inconvenient that I have to figure out what to pay!" "My unrelated job where I get paid the legal minimum wage doesn't tip me!" "Why should I pay a…
How many times can it be said that if you can afford to eat out, you can fucking afford to tip? Not enough times, apparently. Jeebus. I love to tip. I loooooove it. I feel frickin' righteous about it. Sometimes, I tip my barista FIFTY percent, btw, even though she or he has spent a mere 60 seconds on my dirty chai tea…
