We have several new members and, slow as I am, I just realized that we do not have an initiation ritual. We got to have that - it would be another first for our chapter, something no other chapter has thought to do! 'Sides that, you got to be initiated to join any group with class.

We got to have some nasty, dirty, difficult and disgusting task new members need to accomplish before they become full members - something like swallowing goldfish, although that is old hat now.

The best I ever heard of was the explorer club which required a new member to trap a polar bear and make love to an eskimo - or vice versa. I wont even tell you what you have to do in the Navy to get your dolphins. Nor will I ever cross the equator if I have to go through that initiation - - - -

I have been trying to think of a nasty, dirty, difficult and disgusting task all afternoon. I have a few good suggestions, maybe you can come up with some others.

1. Polish the chapter leader's ride.
2. Move piles of old Ford parts around Mike's yard.
3. Clean oldfordstone's and jd's weekend catch of fish.
4. Read every one of gashog's 20,000 posts.
5. Detail Georgia's firetruck.
6. Become chapter leader for X months.

Please post any other nasty, dirty, difficult and discusting tasks you can think of below.

 

I wish I could tell you about the Moderator's initiation, but I'm not allowed to talk about it. I've been a moderator for about a year now, and I'm almost all healed up! The emotional scars will most likely be with me for a lifetime, however...

I do like suggestion #4!

 

I kinda liked #3.
But another one might be to stand out in front of a local chebbie dealer, holding a sign that says "chevies suck", or in front of a local dodge dealer, barechested, with "Ford Rules" stencilled on their chest in red paint....

 

I like this idea, but barechested is OUT! Not only do we have ladies for members, but most of us don't look so good with no shirt!

The idea is to gross the plebe out, not us members.

 

Well, they could stand in front of a mirror? Ha ha.

 

I think the idea is that we want to entice people to join, not send them away screaming in terror! With that in mind, I propose that it be something involving a thong and whipped cream...

 

Gotta include beer too. Maybe a beer shampoo?
Heck, I'll take one of those...

 

Shooting whipped cream with a thong while getting a beer shampoo??

You know how to have fun!

 

Ahh come on *****,your only a wog once.yeah we do have some strange rituals in the navy.

how about siphoning the old gas out of another members project,that taste seems to last.or how about or how about a simple favor like finding a part for somone who needs it.
now i could pull some of the more nasty hazings out of my hat.but somthing tells me thats not appropriate for this kind of forum hehe.

 

How about having to rip an old Hemmings in two and then using it to start the BBQ at the chapter picnic. (When ever we get that together) Jag

 

I've been thinking about this chapter picnic thing. We have a really nice clubhouse at out apartment complex here in Clovis, with a pool and pool tables and grills. Thought that might be a nice meeting spot for us.
