School Spying Scandal Gets Even More Bizarre

Several sources following the recent school webcam spying debacle are reporting that an even stranger twist has surfaced. The student in question that was disciplined for an "improper act" was apparently accused of either drug use or drug selling. Turns out he was eating Mike & Ike candy, not popping pills. While there is probably more to this story than has made it to the general public, the officials involved have done a particularly bad job of actually managing the events.

    Do we know for a fact that it was factory-branded Mike & Ike's and not illegally copied or Chinese-bootlegged Mike & Ike-like candy? There's still ample opportunity to tie this story into several other perpetual Slashdot themes.

    Hey, Mike and Ikes are criminally delicious - this makes perfect sense.

  3. The School is in Pensylvania by number6x · · Score: 5, Funny

    The School is in Pensylvania and Mike & Ike's are made in Illinois. This is obviously a case of corporate funding in public schools gone awry! Hershey's will not allow the children of Pennsylvania to be poisened by the corn syrup generated candies of Illinois!

    They are just acting to protect our youth!

    Think of the children.

    Correct. We would have also accepted "snacktacular".

    Some guy sold me a bag of Mike & Ike for $50 and when it didn't do anything we realized it was Good & Plenty.

    My girlfriend gave me grief about it and I was like, "why don't you score it next time, it's not like any of you bitches have red-green color blindness!"

      dude! one time at a phish concert, i thought i had some bad Mike & Ike. The mellow sweetness turned to burning and pain and i ran around screaming. Nobody could figure out what was wrong, but it turns out someone slipped some Hot Tamales into my Mike & Ike.
      from now on, i'm only getting my Mike & Ike when i'm in Amsterdam where they can control the stuff.

    I melt my Mike & Ikes on a spoon, and then load them into a hypo and inject you insensitive clod.
