When a dad does it to his kid, that’s one thing, and maybe between you and you’re male friends it’s considered a sign of affection. If that’s what you’re in to...well...good for you. When I saw it in high school, it was done by stronger kids to weaker kids as a a form of humiliation.

I didn't see that in school, but I also rode dinosaurs to school. Different, friendlier era I guess.

I thought swirlies were a form of humiliation?

That wasn't humiliation - that was motivation. A couple of noogies and some Charles Atlas lessons were all one needed, back in the day...
