OSHKOSH, VERMONT
Parents of students at PS 137 are still in shock this morning after school officials announced that the senior school dance has a BDSM theme. Students dressed in leather, latex and wielding whips and handcuffs took over the school auditorium for nearly three hours before Principal Marvin Toledo put an end to the event.
“I was a little scared the kids would hit me with whips or handcuff me when I made the announcement,” said Principal Toledo.
Margaret Jones, the 17 year old student who organized the event failed to see what all the fuss was about. “I found all this stuff in my parent’s closet. If it is good enough for them, why can’t we dress up and do a little bondage too?”
School officials attribute the rise in BDSM activity to the 50 Shades of Grey books, which they confiscate on a regular basis.
“We saw the same thing when Anne Rice’s Sleeping Beauty series was first published and with The Story of O before that. Truthfully, it is better than girls showing up with bows and arrows like they did after The Hunger Games came out. At least this way no one gets and arrow in the head.”
