Torture by Backstreet

Teenyboppers worldwide may disagree, but to University of Toronto campus police, playing the Backstreet Boys is the harshest form of torture.
In a move that would make the Spanish Inquisition proud, campus police are pumping in Backstreet tunes, along with a healthy dash of AC/DC ditties, in hopes of ending a student sit-in.
For the past six days, a band of socially conscious students has been demanding the university institute a campus-wide ban on the sale of clothing made in Third World sweatshops. To get their point across to campus officials, the students decided to occupy the president’s office.
For its part, university officials say they are happy to talk to the students, but not while they’re occupying the office.
To expedite the exodus, campus police cut the phone and power lines and cranked up the boom boxes.
So, the activists are forced to take sponge baths to the tune of “I Need You Tonight”, eat meals (hoisted up in buckets from friends below) to the strains of “Larger Than Life” and stay up to date on homework (via their laptops) as “Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely” plays. And plays. And plays.
“This is probably the first time the Backstreet Boys have been deliberately used as a form of sleep-deprivation torture,” one protester tells Canada’s National Post newspaper.
As university spokeswoman Jane Stirling says, the Backstreet Boys were chosen in hopes of “making life a little more uncomfortable” for the protesters.
And so far it’s worked. Of the 19 students who began the sit-in last week, only eight remain.

Yikes! When did they move Clawson out to Orion Township or Romeo? The principal east-west road in Clawson in 14 Mile.
Torture is having to listen to musical attempts by such greats as Sylvester Stallone, Leonard Nimoy or John Travolta.
I believe Tom Cruise might have made a similar attempt as well.
Then there’s the Barney Theme…
