Viral Coed Breakdowns

Sobbing Sorority Sister Just Wanted Snow

This video, which features a sobbing sorority sister, has been causing quite a stir in the blogosphere. The video went viral after her sorority pals filmed her breakdown following a prank gone wrong. Jezebel questions whether this was real, or staged. 

The story goes something like this. The sorority sister apparently got into trouble after using fire extinguishers to make snow angels. Her Christmas spirit was (allegedly) mistaken for a prank and the girl was fined. 

I know the economy is bad and all, but come on sister! Some where from deep in the YouTube archives I can hear Chris Crocker screaming, "Leave the sorority sister alone!"

Advice to all of those who feel the spirit a little stronger than the rest of us: Step away from the videocamera to have your nervous breakdown.
