Wrapped up in a blanket and hit with socks that contain (at best) a bar of soap. Even with just the soap, it’ll leave some hardcore bruises, with potential for broken ribs.

Everyone shoves a bar of soap into their sock and two people grab a blanket, drape it over his bunk while he's sleeping, pull it tight, and then everyone whales on him with the socks.

I saw a guy get tackled by someone with a blanket, rolled up in the middle of our bay, and like 5 dudes were hitting him until he wriggled free somehow.

Take a minute to think about 'but women aren't kind to each other either!' is a bad answer to why you subject each other to this poo poo. Plus, sorority culture came directly from frat culture and was expected to take its rules, so of course sororities are just female frats. This doesn't even look like a frat situation, it looks like a blue collar job thing. StrangersInTheNight fucked around with this message at 03:07 on Jan 19, 2020 |

Some rear end in a top hat treats someone like poo poo. That person feels bad that it happened to them, so it's only fair they do it to the next guy. The cycle repeats. When I got to my first duty station, these two guys were talking to each other about how stupid they were because they fell for all the FNG tricks, explained them to each other in detail, and then tried to get me and the other new guy to fall for them too. They weren't smart.

Of course I do I was a middle school girl. It's still not as intense as poo poo people have done in hazing, like accidentally kill each other. My original statement was a rhetorical question but the answers are revealing a lot about those who post them. StrangersInTheNight fucked around with this message at 06:48 on Jan 19, 2020 |

Sagebrush posted:i'm sure that middle school girls have never killed each other as part of a hazing ritual, she posted on the Something Awful Forums Have you ever heard the concept 'the exception that proves the rule'? It means you remember that case because it's so rare compared to the normal fare of violence it sticks out in your mind; thus proving the majority of violence is filtered out as unimportant grey noise. You're not perceiving what is, you're just perceiving what's out of the ordinary. This means: examine the 'ordinary'. stop #notallmenning the dudes supposedly forcing another dude to take an oil shower. It's stupid AF. Hazing is stupid AF. It's all stupid. Just post OSHA.

Queen Combat posted:It...already has a shield? That's what the loving metal surround is. What? I the main point is that's the abort button; pushing it only does something if the fire suppression system is currently trying to PUT OUT A FIRE. You aren't gonna use the abort button by accident, I assume it takes some decent pressure to depress, and you definitely don't want a random unexpected shield in the way if you're trying to turn that system off.
