. . . . why do people put up with this?
Call me crazy, but telling me to eat my own vomit would have been a "light bulb".
Good question, and I don't have an answer. I do recall last year's highly-publicized hazing of young women by young women from a suburban Chicago high school, though -- that event, perhaps in less extreme form, had gone on for years. Tradition and a desire to belong can bring about pretty horrifying results at times.
