Um, yeah, so did you. Sorry if I got the gender wrong.
Considering I’ve had friends who were assaulted and threatened with rape in high school (not to mention my own unfortunate interludes with dilute hydrochloric acid and flexion-heated cutlery), I don’t share your rosy view of Slushie immunity.
I set that up, though. I like to be slimed.
But not slushied.
I’ve mentioned this in Glee threads in the past, but it really depends on the school. Some schools a slusheeing would be treated as nothing. Others, like where I went, you couldn’t even have food or drinks outside of the lunchroom, so forget squisheeing.
It’s not immunity. High school kids are terrible, but there’s no consequences on Glee. A principal doesn’t need proof like a cop does. You throw a drink in someone’s face or real serious bullshit like you’re talking about, you’re in deep shit. There’s no burden of proof needed to suspend a kid. An accusation and a hunch are plenty. A principal or dean who wouldn’t crack down on that is completely out to lunch.
And in this day and age, probably a major lawsuit waiting to happen too.
I don’t watch Glee, but I don’t find the slushie-throwing funny. Mainly because I’m pretty sure I would have been the recipient of one if they had done that when I was in school. Bullying is one of the things that don’t bother most people, but it does bother me when I see it in TV or movies, or read about it, because it happened to me. If my kid came home covered in slushie, I would definitely have a word with the principal.
And seriously, who buys a Slushie just to throw it away? That’s just silly.
Well, yeah. Have you *seen the show? 
Ok, prob’ly not, given the thread. But yes, the principal is completely and totally out to lunch. As are all of the staff, in a kooky zany kinda way. That’s what makes Glee fun…it’s the dreamscape of high school we all wished for and feared, but that doesn’t actually exist!
*BFFs and cheering crowds while we belt out songs like superstars
**Slushieing, etc.
There were no consequences with any of the things I mentioned either. A principal doesn’t need proof, but that means if anyone’s punished, as like as not it’ll be the victimized kid for “starting” or “provoking” it (which, again, happened to me; in my case it was for “going over the teacher’s head” by complaining to the principal about behaviour the teacher condoned).
Come to think of it, at the school I went to for ninth grade (note: Distinct from the school I refer to as “my high school”), this was pretty much true. The gym teacher made no effort at all at enforcing good sportsmanship (“if I called fouls, it’d be nothing but one big foul-shooting contest”), and the Dean of Men held the attitude that “Well, freshman year, there’s always one student everyone else picks on, but by sophomore year, it usually seems to work itself out”. Well, yeah, I was that one student, and it worked out by me going to a different (and far better) school.
Is it bad that I think this is the worst thing about this? Yeah, drink to the face, loss of dignity, bullying, blah blah blah. WASTED SLUSHIE, PEOPLE!
I don’t watch “Dexter” but I don’t think vigilante justice is entertaining. I’m pretty sure if I knew someone who was assuaging his need to kill by seeking out vile, but unconvicted, criminals to murder, I would tell the authorities about it. Sure they were bad people who deserved to die, but it does bother me, after all our Constitution guarantees Due Process.
…
Oh, wait, both these shows are incredibly exaggerated works of fiction. I mean, sometimes I can be absurdly literal, but come on.
BTW, the slushified students do not find it amusing. It is part of the general atmopshere of oppression leveled against the all-singing, all-dancing, contantly autotuned, dork patrol of a glee club who are the protagonists of the show.
