My first name is Delia, and when I went through rush the dELIA*S catalog had just become the big thing on the West Coast. At EVERY chapter (even Alpha Phi), whenever I was introduced to a girl her immediate response was 'Oh Like the catalog?!?'. I had this name long before the catalog dammit!
Anyway, it started wearing on my nerves and finally, at the last party on this particular day, some unsuspecting women used this line and I snapped -
"YES Like the catalog, SHEESH already!"
I guess I said it a little too loud and with too much attitude because all the women around me stopped talking to look at me and the person I was talking to got this horrified look on her face. I wanted to get out of there ASAP. Didn't have to think twice about that - they dropped me that round!
