  How does one unintentionally eat a tide pod? So you tell the guy when you’re checking in at the ER “Homie and I were just playing catch with a tide pod and I was yelling at cousin Mabel to get off the dang roof and it just dropped into my mouth and I swallowed. It was a one in a million shot doc. One in a million.”

  More likely they did it intentionally and didn’t want to admit to it to avoid embarrassment. That or one of their dumb buddies thought it’d be funny based on some Tiktok they saw so they dropped one into someone’s bowl of Doritos.

  Either way all I was doing was correcting a false statement you made about children never eating tide pods. Because they surely did.

    Ngl my partner put a dishwasher position on the counter the other day and I genuinely thought it was candy for an uncomfortably long second or so.

    Because it looks like candy. It feels like jelly. It’s individually wrapped in clear plastic, just like candy

    Now, imagine someone leaves one of those on the counter, or in a random drawer. That’s where loose candy lives.

    So of course other people, who maybe don’t do laundry and don’t often see tide pods, are going to go “oh, look, candy!”

    And then they call poison control as they retch and the cells in the mouth turn to soap, and they get added to the statistics

        Did you know that cognitively delayed teenagers exist?

        Check real quick - I think “gullible” is written on your ceiling. Watch out, I hear human traffickers are putting fentanyl laced roses on car doors.

  Speaking of rainbow parties - that was actually a great idea. How come we never do that?
