Someone help me plz I'm on the bus and ...

... I get annoyed when I see people type "u" for "you", or "ur" for "your"...

I'm guessing it's a short bus.

^ Considering that the writing is of the same quality as a jr. high school valley girl, I agree.

And LMAO well played, flagooner!

^ Totally!

^ Oh, for sure!

^ Like, yeah!

^ Like, gag me with flagoon.

^ To the max!

Sir dance being obsessively compulsive with agreeing to dc's sarcastic comment about me does not make him look weird, creepy, or completely obsessed with trying to pick at Nicole's flaws (as if he has nothing better to do) at all.

Nicokeyes being obsessively compulsive about posting to TUSCL with the sole purpose being an attention whore (as if she had nothing better to do) does not make her a lonely and dumbass attention whore at all.

And Nicokeyes trying to denigrate a guy on a bus and comparing the way he speaks to being just as annoying in the way she types on TUSCL is not ironic at all.

Like, she's a barf bag, literally and figuratively. For sure, for sure!

@Nicokeyes Like, what's your damage?

What a totally bogus thread.

Usually they say that the Surfer Dude is the male counter part to the Valley Girl. But sometimes Frat Boys are the same.

Anyway, one has to use caution and common sense in public places, and especially in the close quarters of public transit. Usually refusing to talk to people and looking for a chance to move away are the best options.

Once I came very close to violently interceding with this guy who was hassling to SJSU girls. The guy was your basic dry drunk burn out. I was going to start by making some very pointed and threatening insults.

But anyway, we all need to use proper caution. And this world does turn lots of people into casualites. Sounds like this guy you were next to was one of them.

DC, I speak to this on the Elliot Rodger thread, do you think colleges should cancel any and all formal recognition of frats and sororities? I do.

But as far as outlawing them, I don't see any way they can do that.

In some schools, like UCLA, they are real central. Probably at UC Santa Cruz they are a minor factor.

SJG

Most of them seem to go back to the MidWest and the South, and to right after the Civil War.

I guess in those places and times, people thought they were important. I think that the schools should sever ties with them.

Maybe some of the schools seem them as a source of alumni money. Sometimes school sports is used this way too.

SJG

But let’s face it you kinda have a thing for the frat looking kinda guys. Should have DFKed him

^ san_jose_grody!

I do! Frat guys are handsome love them

Nicole likes greek?

^^^^^ I think the schools should not support the Greek System in any manner.

But I don't know how anyone could do anything more than that, take any further steps to restrain them. And also, other kinds of social clubs might emerge, and they might not be so much the same. A co-ed social club could emerge, and that would be quite different.

I point out, sorority girls figured very large in Elliot Rodger's world. But I don't think he really ever interacted with them. They served more a very visible symbolic role. I have noticed this on college campuses too.

I believe that when intercollegiate sports is de-emphasized, when you have more "commuter colleges" it is de-emphasized, and when you have school with a counter culture focus or an arts and humanities focus, frats and sororities play a smaller role.

I had one professor who would make up jokes about "Sorority Girls", and tell them in class. He should not have been doing that. But it does show how they are able to make themselves into a prominent symbol.

SJG

How do you define douchebag? I've been called one a lot of times but usually by social retards. It was always unmerited

sirlap. its ‘fur shure’. not ‘for sure’.

LOL

Go smoke a bowl and calm down

Lol. I was President of my Fraternity. I did away with hazing, made it professional, taught everyone how to study to pass and stole all their keys during parties. I was the only sober shit there. All that being boring to most, BUT I WOULD STILL DO VIP WITH NICOLE. Like, for sure and TOTALLY, dude! LOL.

Oh hell this thread is like Romper Room

Loved being in a frat. Two tap keg system; full liquor bar; sold drinks after hours on weekends; one party every week with a sorority or all girls dorm; great food; cheaper; sold 365 kegs in six hours at our spring party one year; access to enough babes every semester so If you only fucked 5-6 different women every semester everyone knew you were a homo; plus as a lawyer why would fraternity brothers called Assistant head of housing Court and District Attorney be of importance. Fraternity life: party, fuck, succeed. Hate it lol.

Gee @ski
You are really cool.

Baby why you u riding a bus when you can be riding this.....

" you only fucked 5-6 different women every semester everyone knew you were a homo"

@ Skibum some men have values........

Nicoooooooole! Let’s play BUStanut

Ok @ pistols come over.

Ooooh yeah who is the lucky guy. Me! Nicoooooooole and I are gonna get it on.

^ Better get on the bus

From what I've heard, the main problem I have with frats is the whole fakeness of the relationships formed. Its a very stratified system and if you're at the top or close to those at the top you can do whatever you want, including fucking your "brothers" over, going after girls they like, humiliating them for the hell of it. If someone can't pay their dues they get ostracized.... same thing if they ever quit a frat. Street gangs have more real ties... I think frat boys bragging about getting laid is just that, bragging. Not everyone in a frat fucks like a rabbit. Its basically just entitled white boys paying for friends.

Street gang members are really trusting each other with their lives.

Frat boys are just bantam roosters.

SJG

Street gang members are insecure pussies.

Usually ethnic youth, understanding that they need to learn to stick together.

Their ways are not that much different from those of the Police or from those of the Homeowners Associations.

The idea of ~~gangs~~ has locally been used as a cover for racism, police abuses, and for those who just want gentrification.

SJG

No, thing is, street gangs are in large part fiction. When Joseph McNamara was SJ Chief of Police, he refused to glorify the concept of gangs by having an anti-gang task force. We have documents where San Jose was planning huge crack downs, basically calling all ethnic youth gangs, and talking about the downtown being made into a "center of investment".

As far as Christian Nationalism, that is nothing other than domination and the trashing of church and state separation, and then saying that people have to plead for pity to be able to live in this world.

SJG

San Jose does have a low homicide rate, for its size.

But the idea of gangs is still largely based on racism.

What defines the existence of a gang, and what makes this different from other social structures?

SJG

You’re just stupid, someone should drop you off in gang territory so you can spout your nonsense to a street gang maybe you can get some Blood or some Crips to join your moronic organization or instead of talking all the shit about Tijuana you should head on down to MS 13 country Guatamala and find some latinas to preach your socialist/communist doctrine to.

I am all about San Jose, 24/7. All neighborhoods, all weather, around the clock.

The idea of gangs is in large measure fiction, used to promote harsh and racially biased policing.

Racism is still very big in this country.

SJG

The criminal activities associated with street gangs are blown out of proportion by the media and politicians because doing so helps create a non white threat that rallies white and middle class America behind broken windows policing measures ie racial profiling via gang injunctions, criminalizing poverty, etc. and behind the prison industrial complex. Gangs are a perceived threat only when gentrification comes into play, or anti immigrant propaganda and hate mongering. Notice how no one cares about gangs unless they're portrayed as affecting the lives of white people.......it was okay for these neighborhoods to have gangs before gentrification.

In minority urban neighborhoods, you're more likely to be harassed and or beaten by the cops than you are by gang members.

- Gang members don't like attracting attention and they don't want people calling the cops on them so they try to get along with people in their hoods.

- Most of the crimes they're involved in aren't violent ie selling drugs to white people, prostitution that serves white middle class men. Racketeering ie extorting businesses that extort the poor people in the neighborhood.

- Latino gangs try to model themselves after families. A lot of these kids didn't have parents who are always working, don't speak English, can't relate to them. The gang steps in and does shit like going to Disneyland, trips to the beach, bbqs. Lots of encouragement from OGs.

- Most gangs don't have a real hierarchy other than shot callers and then the Mexican Mafia members in prison.Its all very loosely organized. Money funds the gang's activities, gets clothes for members, helps out members' families. Gets reinvested into the drug trade.

Coincidentally, what I saw on Facebook and thought was adorable.

So I take it somehow white gangs are different then?

Yes, white gangs are different in that they tend to be ideologically based ie most are skinhead, white supremacist groups.

You can find skewed stats to support anything.

Homicides and gang killings are classed differently.

Narco terrorism and street gangs are two different things.

The gang problem in Central America is directly tied to the gang problems in the US ie via deportees but again, the violence is exaggerated for political means and also by those seeking asylum in the US.

The real problem is a lack of economic opportunity, divestment from poor urban areas and rampant gentrification instead of actual community development. Groups like Homeboy Industries do more to curb gang membership and gang violence than a "tough on crime" stance for a very real reason.
