swirlie
Head in bowl
A swirlie is a prank in which someone's head is forced into a toilet bowl while the toilet is flushed, creating a swirling effect around the victim's head.
It is associated with bullying, particularly in school settings, and appears frequently in teen movies and television shows depicting hazing or torment by older students.
The seniors threatened freshmen with swirlies during orientation week.
