tide pod challenge

[Mister Cheese]

I remember growing up teens imitating a movie scene about laying down on the road while cares go flying past you. I believe some ended up dead.

We can't have nice things thanks to retarded people. That's a cool scene.

/shrug. Let them get sick. They’ll learn.

Death is a pretty permanent lesson though...

[the game]

/shrug. Let them get sick. They’ll learn.

I think being sick would be the least of their worries.

[zhero]

their dangerous ingredient list isn't that scary. ethanol (drinking alcohol), hydrogen peroxide (oral debriding, naturally occurring in liver) and polymers (which could be a lot of different things)

now kids are going to start eating them to get drunk and clean my mouths out.

[Vynestra]

/shrug. Let them get sick. They’ll learn.

lol

they will not learn, but their peers will.

[Dr Assbandit]

Whelp, they knew the risks. It’s not like they thought it was candy, like a toddler would.

True, but these widespread social media fads and memes are clearly influencing them. It's like peer pressure except their peers are purely on the internet and wanting to be a part of these social circles is encouraging them to do batshit insane stuff. I'm not excusing this behavior whatsoever but it is pretty interesting in a morbid sort of way.

their dangerous ingredient list isn't that scary..

Ignoring the (pun intended) laundry list of other ingredients you didn't mention, some of which are toxic on their own, the bigger problem is that these things are separated. The real danger is when you eat them (or even put them in your mouth), and the film separating them dissolves, and they mix. This creats a caustic substance that can eat through things like your body, and is toxic in your bloodstream.

If tide would just stop advertising that 1/100 is candy we wouldn't be having this problem.

"Sighs"

And they say Children are our future...

[Harry Botter]

They Clean
They Soften
They send you to the Coffin

Got a good chuckle out of me. /cheers!

[Slirith]

Humanity will probably regret not letting nature take its course on the kids who think this is a good idea.

Agreed /10char

[PACOX]

Now pods are going to be locked up or require an ID. Kids ruin everything.

[Blade Wolf]

They do not know the way.

Where is da commanda?!

[Deleted]

Good to see people volunteering to help Skim the gene pool a little bit.

[yetgdhfgh]

I wonder what the next stupid deadly fad for teenagers eager to impress on social media will be?

Perhaps the 50 cyanide pills can you hold in your mouth challenge?

[Rennadrel]

I say let them, let natural selection sort things out for us.

[Mirishka]

Its sad how utterly stupid people can be, all in the name of doing whatever fad everyone else is doing.

And inb4 someone says 'you did dumb shit as a teen too'... no, actually, I didn't. Didn't mess with drugs, didn't drink, didn't lay down in the road, didn't put hotsauce in my eyes or anything else. I kept my nose clean, my head screwed on straight and my grades up. Maybe that made me boring, but hey... I'll take boring over 'died at 16 from eating detergent.'

[Sykol]

To be honest, I think this challenge should be compulsory around the world.

[Ozyorkbourne]

Any teenager who actually does it. 2mins, 6seconds.

[Lagwin]

They do not know the way.

The funny thing there is that the knukles meme tards would be the type of people to jump on a bandwagon challenge like tide pods
