This clip presents two of the three pie victims (one female, one male) discussing the experience of being pied by blue, which wasn't really a positive thing for either, but at least they both took it in stride.
Both of the victims who spoke on camera complained that they got the shaving cream up their noses and in their throats, and also that they smelled it for a long time after. The woman says that she's washed her hair twice since the pieing and it still smells like shaving cream!
But In referring to the difference between shaving and whipped cream, the male victim said: " I think I was happy ... I mean, I wasn't happy at all... but it was better to have the shaving cream than the whipped cream." To which the female pie victim chimed in her agreement. This baffled the third guy, who hadn't been pied, and who assumed whipped cream would be much preferable.
The really funny thing to me is how much both of the pie victims, although they both certainly had negative effects from the shaving cream, were really adamant that whipped cream would've been worse. "It would melt... it's dairy, it falls apart faster ... it's milk and ... it's sticky ... and it stinks ... even worse." (This is combining both victims' comments, as they were talking over each other.) A pretty vivid and detailed list of reasons not to use whipped cream... almost sounds like they were speaking from experience!!!
I don't know what century the anchors or you are living in...we have this thing called 'non-dairy whipped topping' (aka Cool Whip) that (unlike SC): is EDIBLE, does not sting the eyes, does not stink (bad) under hot lights (if one leaves it on that long), makes a great impact (as good as SC, if applied right), mixes well with pudding and other fillings...and is equal in the 'sensuality factor' (texture, look, sensation of being pied).
I'm genuinely surprised (pleasantly so), that this sort of thing still happens, I mean, generally, if someone knows they will get pied in advance, certainly in the northern hemisphere, they will wear goggles at least, maybe hair coverings, aprons etc in worse case scenarios, so it seems wide open for legal action, especially if the recipient isn't happy about it. Maybe not so much presenters, the negative publicity would dissuade them, but I fear someone will sue at some point, ending our fun..
I have sooooo many mixed feeling about this. It all comes down to fun vs. humiliation. The "victims" really need to be "in on it." Of course, there are few who would want to.
Love you, too
