Well, it is nearly that time agin. The stores will be crowded, and people will be scrambling to buy the perfect gift for their favorite children. But be careful. There are certain toys that could prove dangerous to a child.
Quote:The Supremo Slingshot, the Nickelodeon Gooze Soda Fountain and Ribbets the Rhythm Frog made the annual "10 Worst Toys" list unveiled Tuesday by a Boston consumer safety group.
This is the 31st annual list compiled by Ed Swartz, a product liability lawyer for plaintiffs and founder of the nonprofit group WATCH, or World Against Toys Causing Harm. The list is intended to warn parents against toys that could be dangerous to children.

Buncha pussies. Im from the age of LAWN DARTS aND beebee guns. A MANS TOY
LAWN DARTS and SUPERELASTICBUBBLEPLASTIC...a mind numbing combination to todays folks but, hey..we survived and had fun doing it!
I like the warning for the vibrating broomstick last year/the year before...at least you can laugh at some of them.
Really though, people should be aware if they dont have full knowledge of this stuff...maybe just buy the most loud and obnoxious toy they can find..thats always nice.
Or someone elses eye out fercryinoutloud!
