An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.webdatacommons.org associated with source dataset(s)

A Discredited High School trope that is not disappearing any time soon. Every Jerk Jock has done it to the Ordinary High School Student at least once. Even an Alpha Bitch or two has done it to the Naive Everygirl. Chances are, it did happen once or twice, but it could also have originated as a joke, since larger lockers were commonplace in older school buildings. However, today, schools are built to accommodate a higher volume of students, and stacked lockers are more common. Older buildings may still have the larger lockers but these are often ditched during remodeling.

Even an Alpha Bitch or two has done it to the Naive Everygirl. If this has ever been done in real life, it must have been during a time before schools were as crowded as they are today and lockers were bigger. So writers, who are almost all well into their thirties regardless of the show's target demographic, may have grown up seeing stuff like this. Many still think it's what kids do today. Or perhaps a really old High School show once did it because the director thought it'd be funny and everyone else followed suit. Who knows. Chances are, it did happen once or twice, but it could also have originated as a joke, since larger lockers were commonplace in older school buildings. However, today, schools are built to accommodate a higher volume of students, and stacked lockers are more common. Older buildings may still have the larger lockers but these are often ditched during remodeling. Not to be confused with Stuffed Into the Fridge, aside from establishing how much of a jerk/monster the stuffer is. Examples of Stuffed Into a Locker include:
