Cleanup on aisle 3. From Salem (MA) Patch:

You may not have heard of gallon smashing but if you take a look at the Youtube video attached to this post, you'll know pretty much all there is to know.

Gallon-smashing is a new viral video trend that is sweeping the internet, where people go into supermarkets and film themselves pretending to fall while smashing one or two gallons of milk.

At 11:01 a.m. Monday, Salem police responded to a "gallon smashing incident" at the Shaw's Supermarket on Traders Way.

A loss prevention manager told responding officers that four girls were recorded on the market's surveillance cameras entering the store, heading for the dairy section and grabbing a couple of gallons of milk.

One of the girls reportedly smashed two milk gallons in one of the aisles and pretended to slip and fall in the milk while one of her friends filmed the whole thing with her cell phone.

The loss prevention manager turned surveillance footage of the incident over to police in the hopes that still images can be pulled for identification purposes.

What do you think of this new "gallon-smashing" trend?

I’d make the little pukes lick it up off the floor,....glass shards and all! Crime is Crime! In my world anyone caught doing graffiti would get an automatic 10 years first offense - no parole. Second offense, LIFE. No parole! Want to guess how fast graffiti would stop?

That’s got to be one of the most stupid “trends” I’ve ever seen. Really?!

If I were the owner/manager I’d file criminal vandalism charges and refuse to drop them and get restraining orders preventing them and their parents and siblings from ever entering the store again.

But it's more dangerous than my favorite prank as a teen: Fireworking teachers' houses.

No it isn't, you lunatic!
