The Gutter: 09.23.2010

Many a lady had her knickers in a twist this week. And no, we don’t mean you, little freshman female who decided that sexing two Quad roommates on two consecutive Saturday nights was a good idea. Particularly considering that both of them walked in on your respective trysts.

No, no. We mean the Penn ladies at large and their greater knickers.

Take the ChiO ladies: In what can only be called a dastardly and purposeful attack by Panhel, powderpuff football was abruptly removed from the Greek Week schedule and replaced with — wait for it — a dodgeball tournament! How dare the Greekettes impinge on the one sport ChiO ladies can do semi-successfully at their annual philanthropy event? This is too Machiavellian. Even for us.

All this twisting damn sure got others confused too. Take the Tri-Delt who attended the AXO date party with a date of her own. Talk about crossing party lines. She was probably just trying to find an alternative means of socializing, what with the dramatic 24-hour shutdown of that bastion of WASPy watering holes, The Blarney Stone.

And in this week’s edition of Things That Make Us Want To Hurl, the nocturnal birds of Pine Street have decided to host an upchuck-inducing, funtimes-guaranteed Saturday Brunch. How innocent? DJ Lee Kalt, “who’s opened for various artists,” will be spinning decks all day long, so you’ll get your exorbitantly high-priced tickets’ worth. How very Acapulco. We die.

But it is good to know that fOwls is putting their differences with OZ aside. Hosting their first joint Downtown party this Thursday, the two groups are sure to draw in a varied bunch from the one social scene they co-belong to.

Das Guttah is back from a brief hiatus with the biggest news of the semester — hell, the year: as a sighting in front of Tap House a fortnight ago confirmed, the infamous Coke Twins are back. Apparently, they’ve shacked up with their parents in the Philly area and plan on stopping by campus between shenanigans.

Us pesky Penn kids just can’t seem to stay out of trouble! When gaggles of excited greeks were carted off (like the cattle they are?) on buses to the land of Vineyard Vines and lawn parties, it was almost inevitable that shenanigans would ensue.

Still reeling from [insert egregious Halloween–homecoming contraction here]? With the 2010ers back to relive the glory days — too soon, we think — trying to reclaim their thrones and pushing our beloved Smoke’s to full capacity, boy was last weekend hard. It seemed the boys of Phi Delt had a similar encounter with harsh hands, though an OFSA–sized slap on the wrist hardly seems comparable to dropping the soap these days.
