My 2 oldest kids had their birthday party yesterday and they each got a Zhu Zhu pets. On top of being absoFrost-inglutely annoying, they come with a warning in several places saying "Do not put near hair". As always, when I see a stupid warning like that I always have to ask myself what's worse: that people have put them in their hair or that it's happened so many times that they need a label.
As it turns out, it must be a frequent occurance because my youngest got it caught in her hair but she managed to get it turned off so it was just hanging there. We were able to get it out without too much problem, I just yanked the toy out.
There's a good reason you don't want them in your hair. The tires are stickier than my keyboard after all the times I've spooged on it, and the torque in motor is stronger than BIG's love of alcohol. Seriously this thing could probably push a car.
I thought that would have driven the point home that you don't put them in your hair, so imagine my surprise when I woke up to "OW! OW! OW!" My kid decided that her hair is off limits but we never said anything about mommy's hair. This time the little Froster was stuck. What's worse is that there is no physical switch so every attempt to unravel it turn the hamster back on and it would just wind it tighter. I had to get a scissors and cut it out, and then I laughed my ass off, which did not go over well with the wife but whatever she needed to get her ass out of bed and make me some breakfast anyways.
Zhu Zhu Pets - If they haven't tried to kill you yet, they're just waiting for the right time.
What is the dumbest warning label you've ever seen? Bonus points if the warning actually happened to you.

Your two oldest kids came with a warning?
As for the dumbest warning label I've seen: "May have been in contact with peanuts," on a container of peanuts.

Yeah, it said "Why did you ignore the warning label on your penis?"
That warning label said "If used properly may lead to financial hardship, buying a minivan, white picket fences, loss of sexual function, and thoughts of suicide. If you experience any of these symptoms, discontinue use and abort."

I'd like to hope I'm not the only one living under a rock here.
I had never heard about "zhu zhu pets" and had to look it up after I read your post above. According to the Wikipedia article, one of the characters is named Jilly. If your kids got the Jilly character, I urge you to tape its mouth with duct tape now.

I had a friend in high school who inserted the end of a curling iron into her right eye. I don't think she did it on purpose, though she got to wear a bitchin' eye patch the rest of the year.

My kids have not asked for the zhu zhu things yet. They are still hooked on the webkinz though. Thankfully they have no moving parts.
I might have to buy one of those, for the next time my husband pisses me off:
"I'm a bitch?! Well, you've got a hamster caught in your hair."

For WDU's picture I'm more disturbed not by the fact that people do put the mini screwdrivers into their penis's, but by the fact there is a little picture underneath it showing someone doing it.
On a offnote, what is the plural of penis? Penii? Penises? Peniss'?

I didn't find the mesh bag o' nightmares. I suppose I should be glad for that. I'm guessing that the Jilly reference is because she never shut up. However, that's still a problem, neither the toy nor the kid ever shut up so who am I supposed to duct tape? I'll just nuke the site from orbitdo both, it's the only way to be sure.

Ha! Pool, that's a good one. All I have is a shallow puddle in the driveway, I think they'll survive that. I think I might just have to build a miniature Thunderdome. 2 kids enter, 1 kid leaves and Lobster's stepdad gets the loser.

The straws at Starbucks have a warning on them: Not for use in hot beverages.
Now, I don't know anyone who uses a straw in their hot coffee, but it's really sad that there were enough idiots out there that caused a warning label on a Frost-ing straw.
