Prepular, A blog for frat boys and their fans

College years means different things for different people. For most people, it was all about books, boys, chicks and beer. Those were really the years of insecurity and jealousy. If you are like most people, when you first start college you will be lonely, wishing to mate with as many different guys as possible, and trying to establish relationships the only way you know how. No matter how hard you try, there are bound to be some people in your social world that could potentially destroy your chances of getting with the guys you want. I want to share the types of personality I’ve learned to spot and the ways to manage them.

Alpha dogs (AD): There are hot straight guys and then there are hot straight alpha dogs that will kick the shit out of you for no reasons. Know the difference! Alpha dogs are emotionally insecure, and they have this unmistakable need to dominate. If an AD isn't good looking don't even bother to talk to him. The problem is, sometimes even it you try to stay away troubles will find you. After years of observations, one relatively easy way to get an AD to be less hostile to you (at least temporarily) is to talk to him privately you are just here to have fun and not to steal girls from his social circle.

Emotionally unstable bitches / House pussies: You can find them quite easily in any frat parties or house parties but they are actually everywhere. Look out for them. They are usually young, semi attractive girls and love to start troubles. They are very good at stirring up things, and then asking their boys in the frat to kick you out. Try to stay on their good side for as long as you can, if they still want to create dramas, let the guys know you didn't touch her or be disrespectful to her.

High School Musical 3 is going to bypass the Disney Channel, and will be the first big screen installment of this massively popular franchise. Zac apparently signed the deal for $3m. No doubt they still keep him, all the girls like him, and some guys too. The entire cast, including that nasty Vanessa "XXX" Hudgens, will be intact. E! News has more. People are already asking Disney to "show that little whore's p___y and t_ts in this so-to-be classic."

Everyone is asking this question: "Is Zac Efron gay?" Details Magazine asked the man himself about Perez's constant insinuation. Oh wait, what is that think on your hair, is that KY?

One very funny story about a fraternity guy and a "STD" girl...(via Pitt News)

Ah, the second semester of the year. Finally settled into dorms and apartments, the lines at the bookstore have dwindled down to the slacking few and students can be spotted nodding off in classrooms across campus already.

To the eager freshmen who survived their arrival here at Pitt in the fall, I commend you. You have passed your first test. No doubt your parents assisted you in this feat, your mother breaking down in tears as she made your bed, your father pulling you close for a warm embrace and asking if you need more money before they drove away.

Yeah, that'll change.

Entering my junior year, last fall I had the joy of moving into Bouquet Gardens. This time around, my parents slowed the car just enough for me to grab some of my belongings before tucking and rolling out onto the pavement as they flung the rest of my stuff after me, using the back of my head as a target.

But listen, my children, and you shall hear the embarrassing tale of my freshman year, and why this drop-off at Pitt was a welcome adjustment.

The braces had barely been popped off my teeth as I sat in the front seat between my parents, grinning idiotically at the big, bad world of the University of Pittsburgh as we entered what my parents still refer to as the "big city" of Oakland. After a mere hour or two of looping around Forbes and Fifth trying to find the Litchfield Towers - yeah, it was that pitiful - we pulled into a parking lot loaded with fraternity brothers in brightly colored Arrival Survival shirts.

My parents climbed out and I slid across the bench seat, stumbling out of the car, all the while staring at a fraternity brother who appeared to have a beautiful aura about him. The brothers pointed my mother and me toward the Towers to rent a cart, and offered to help my dad unload the car.

I walked to the lobby in a daze, fantasizing about the gorgeous fraternity brother offering his family's prize cow and $500 to my father in exchange for my hand in marriage. So this is what college was like. Life was beautiful.

Five minutes or so later, give or take 30 seconds, my mother and I arrived back at the car, rented cart and key to my room in tow. The fraternity brothers helped load my belongings into the cart and offered further assistance in helping us to my room.

Miracle of miracles, I ended up pulling up the rear with the love of my life, who turned to me in our first stolen moment of privacy and passionately whispered:

"So, you wrote a speech about sexually transmitted diseases in high school, eh?"

Followed by a snicker and an elbow jab to his frat buddy.

I was nothing short of mortified. In the five minutes that I had left my future husband, my father had revealed the dorkiest secret of my life: I had not only written a speech in high school about sexually transmitted diseases and the alarming prevalence among teenagers, but I also competed in public speaking tournaments with it. Why didn't my dad tell him I was captain of the Reading Team and led them to three consecutive first place wins in junior high while he was at it?

A sort of numbness took over my body. I know that my face must have been glowing the red color of the neon sign for the "O."

I barely noticed that my father did not allow anyone else on the elevator once we finally got one, manning it as though he were the Skipper on a private vessel to the 20th floor of Tower B. Or the fact that he tipped each fraternity brother a dollar for his help.

I'd like to tell you that I became a well-adjusted Pitt student following that tragic day, but it's simply not true. To this day, whenever I see a brother from that fraternity, he is sure to yell:

"Hey, STD girl!"

I swear a freshman that I have never met did it just the other day.

So, congratulations well-adjusted freshmen. And remember to keep the tuck-and-roll drop-off in mind for next year. After all, it's never too late for a dad to mark you with a scarlet letter - or three.

Would you put your girlfriend / boyfriend before your fraternity / sorority?

I don't know how many chapters have formal pinning or lavaliering ceremony. I read an old article from Penn State which they cite their frat members would "pole" the brother who has lavaliered, strip him naked, while other members thrown food at him. Of course, each fraternity / sorority has its very own rituals. I know many sororities do candle passes, usually for lavaliering / pinning / engagement or getting knocked up (whichever comes first!).

Question for guys: Would you ever give your pin to your girlfriend?

Question for girls: Would you ever lavalier a guy? Do you think guys and girls view the lavalier differently?

Thien Thanh Thi Nguyen, aka Tila Tequila, announced it in her blog that Bobby Banhart broke up with her. Every viewer looked at MTV's dating show "A shot at love with Tila Tequila" differently, Melanie Mcfarland called it the "saddest example of TV's decline". Tila Tequila is myspace's most popular person, for sure, I don't see her being too different from other F-list celebrities who would do anything to stay in the limelight, trying to extend their long expired 15 minutes (case in point, Danielle Foxxx who is a frequent guest on Maury) . One good thing though, is through her show we get to meet cute guys like Bobby, and he is on the market again!

Certain words automatically come to mind when we hear the word fraternity: party, quarterback, steroids, alcohol, hazing, servitude, dirty laundry. The Sigma Phi Epsilon brothers got into trouble last year with the university for hazing, a "kidnapping" incident so creative that got the campus police involved. Following this incident, the national group kicked out a few members and set new standards which included having a minimum GPA. Sigma Phi Epsilon now even has a "Balanced Man" intiative which add yoga, wine tasting and trips to Opera to its routine activities.

"It was kind of difficult for us," chapter president Keith Ziercher said. "It's been a hard transition."

Does a "more balanced" fraternity sound like something you would like to be part of? For those of us who have a frat boyfriend, would the current "taming" trend make your guys less attractive to you?

"I want to lick his abs!" that was exactly what was said about Michael Copon in "Bring in it on, in it to win it".

Copon was one of the "Power Rangers" back in the days, can you believe it? I never thought Power Ranger has any hot guys in it! I couldn't be more wrong. He is also known for his role of Felix Taggaro in the television series One Tree Hill. I want him to jog around my place someday.

Your mum probably would agree!
