I am waiting to see which 'side of the tracks' he comes from.


Is a statement that somehow being poor = bad. It's too bad so many think that way because in my experience, assholes come from all walks of life. But I did find that a large percentage of frat boys on campus were assholes. Greeks are self-selected assholes, who want to become a part of a clique of other assholes who "get drunk" and "get laid"--by any means necessary--their entire college career and then help each other out later with job references, etc. They are nothing but a money-making machines for the organization who then gives a kickback to the school. But what may in the past have been a positive influence is now completely worthless and a nexus of problems on just about any campus.
