When Warning Labels Get Ridiculous
Earlier this month, I bought my two-year-old daughter a wading pool. On the side is this warning label:
That, on a pool that looks like this:
"No Diving?" Seriously?
I hope the company didn't have to add this after someone tried it.

Do not look directly at Happy Fun Ball.

Yes!...Rach and I loved your pool so much we got the last one from Wally World, which they had to cut down as it was the display. Equally as ridiculous is the warnings on food saver bags "This bag is not a toy, do not use in cribs, beds, car seats"....and on and on and on. You know in this day and age if they didn't put that on someone would do it and win in court just for being stupid.

I bought the exact pool for my now-17 month old little girl a couple of months ago. Having now seen the warning label, I guess I'll have to take the Toddler Diving Board(tm) back to Wal Mart.
