Okay, is it just me, or does seem like the kind of stuff every schoolkid has been getting up to since the dawn of time, rather than the bad influence of telly shows? Just because they're using their mobile phones to film it doesn't mean hitting unpopular kids is a new thing. If anything, shows like Jackass and Dirty Sanchez are an extension of the kind of childhood japes that we all used to play at school, no?
Yet another OMG TV AND TECNOLOGY ARE RUININNG R KIDS FUTURES! story to chuckle at, in a world-weary, middle class kind of way.

Just wait until they slap someone and the victim gets out a baseball bat...
Walking up and slapping people for a laugh?
Same thing that got those Tango ads taken off the air about 10+ years ago.
Not exactly a new thing.

I don't know what your school was like but if it invlolved things like rubbing stinging nettles on unscenely genitals, nailing your ear lobes to a table or whatever else dirty sanchez do, I think kids are getting better :D

As an 18 year old who is still part of a High School due to the sixth form being part of the school I've seen it going on for ages. It's not a new thing, but then again, neither was "chav" when the media jumped onto the bandwagon. Perhaps it's just the area of London I live in (its not the worst or best), but all of these crappy crazes and idiots seem to pop up here a long time before it is given coverage by people who obviously have no idea what is happening with the youth today.
