the warning on this frisbee
was clearly written by someone
who had grown up with a younger sibling.

Well, don’t we use them mostly in a “team” effort? Just saying…. no humans, really,? When it’s such a subtle way to pass a msg to your big brother?…..

Love all of this. And have never seen any such “all inclusive warning ” on any toy. Great quote.

Some of the warnings are fab, I came across a pack of peanuts that had an allergy warning that the packet may contain nuts….

So many kids took those as suggestions rather than warnings, Beth.

reminds me of a dad joke I’ve seen:
I was wondering, why does a frisbee appear larger the closer it gets…
Then it hit me.

Too funny, Beth! I’ve been hit by frisbees and they do leave a good sting depending on how hard it was thrown. Those warnings ….. I just had to laugh!

That’s hysterical…especially the very last warning. Hahahaha Some of us are warnings to others. So funny.

LOL! I love the “3+” age rating.. NO suggested age can guarantee you won’t get conked, but 3 – 14 yr olds asking one to *play* frisbee seizes up one or two organs!

One reason people throw out so much good food is because of warning labels on the packaging: expiration dates and “best before” dates….which are ONLY there to provide legal protection for the manufacturer, and are NOT indicative of whether the food inside has gone bad yet….I say this because a “warning” on a Frisbee might be the single most unnecessary thing of all time!

With the warning … “Never point or shoot the projectiles at anyone or pets” … I wonder how one is supposed to play a little frisbee catch with each other? I suppose you could play catch with a tree, just don’t expect to get the frisbee back … but then there is the warning not to “use these toys against any living thing.” Hmmmm ….
