Okay so like, genuinely not trying to do a "back in my day" fuckin thing here, but also: what the fuck is wrong with kids? Back when I was coming up, pranking at it's absolute worst was like, filling a dudes shoes with yogurt in the locker room, or like, putting plastic bugs in people's desks n shit. Why the fuck are teenagers trying to get each other murdered by cops!?

swatting is older than I am, and kids have been calling in bomb threats to get out of school for the better part of a century

Swatting and bomb threats are different things. The rise of live steaming also seemed to encourage swatting as you could see the results live.
