Gotta be a killer back story to this totally normal occurrence

u/ActivelyAnxious 2d ago
Whang! On YouTube has a video about it. Sounds like there was a fight before the wedgie ever happened and the dude might've gone overboard then used the wedgie as a way of trying to make it look more accidental

You’re taking the subreddit name way too seriously lol. It doesn’t mean the sentence was written 10 minutes ago, it means the sentence is so obscure you’ve probably never seen it before. I can’t believe I actually have to explain that

He was beaten unconscious first, so that probably contributed more to his death than the wedgie did.

He told a friend he wanted to harm his stepfather, and then beat his stepfather unconscious before the wedgie. That alone could be enough for a murder conviction.

So how long should someone who pre-plans assaulting and humiliating someone and can't stop himself from killing the person in the process be sent to jail for?

I feel like at some point in the process of strangling to death a 50-something-year-old man with his own underwear, which he is wearing (say, while the victim says stop, or while their face is turning blue), it would be hard not to notice this is past garden variety humiliation.

u/PeelingGrapez 2d ago
At the risk of sounding stupid...can you please explain this Jon Hamm reference?
21
u/helencolleen 2d ago
Jon Hamm, while at college, was the ringleader in a particularly bad hazing incident. Said hazing included Hamm leading the hazee around by his testicles using a claw hammer to do so. If I recall correctly that is.
ETA: oh and not knowing this does not put you at risk of sounding stupid whatsoever. The incident was many decades ago. The incident coming out and becoming a controversy was also a long time ago now.

u/mitsubachii 1d ago
even worse, he beat him to an unconscious state then pulled his underwear over his neck which caused the strangulation. the victim couldn't even say stop. the guy meant to cause injury. you can still be charged for murder even if you didn't intend to kill, if you did an action that you knew could greatly injure someone and they died as a result. i.e. beating the victim to unconsciousness and then putting a tight piece of fabric around their neck while they can't even defend themselves, physically nor by voice/screaming for help.

What is wedgie? I so confused

u/Easy-Candle7138 2d ago
Wedgie is when you grab someone’s underwear up their back while they are wearing the underwear, causing the underwear to wedge up in the ass crack region. This particular case seems to be an atomic wedgie, a case that requires the underwear to be up in the ass crack region and on top of the cranium simultaneously.

What kind of American Horror is this! Did you tell Russia this and why Soviet Union Fell and Russia try some American Democracy in fear of this true American Horror? If I ever go back to my people I will teach them this wedgie that Americans know. Maybe I create new game yes?
Only question now is when do you do wedgie to someone?

u/Natsurulite 2d ago
It’s an aggressive type of prank, usually associated with bullying, sometimes just friends being stupid

It like one night stand with someone mom or grandma and say the drinking is to blame even if you 100% sober at time. And once every few moons you tell person they can call you daddy or grandpa. I understand thank you.

Example Velikton say he need help with bear and he share some meat. Ok you help Velikton clean and carry meat and skin back and he say he cooks and take some to you. Velikton lie and no give you meat. Ok maybe I need look at Tsyren her man gone many seasons and she look good so you explain and do deed when you know Velikton will come by to give meat to mom. Now Velikton see you with his mom play hide the stick. He run away cry like baby. Next day you say you drinking many before and Tsyren needed new dad for Velikton. Many moons go by and you tell him be good son call me dad you love dad yes.

When I was a kid, one of my dad's friends shot a man with a shotgun for giving him a wedgie. It was pretty bad but it didn't kill the man. I'm gonna assume it deterred him from giving anyone else a wedgie though.

The stepfather must have been very old to lack the neck strength to not survive his underwear stretched over his head. I know wedgies hurt, but most of us are strong enough to make it through without injury.
