The_DADDY Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 (edited) Are people generally thicker these days?. The reason I ask is I've just purchased this... It's very good by the way, nice and cool. However when unpacking I found it come with water bottles you can freeze and place inside. Here is one of them.... Seriously? I mean are we really living in an age where people have to be told this???? I despair I really do... Edited June 14, 2023 by The_DADDY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 We live in an age where businesses need to protect themselves from legal claims both genuine and not genuine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually I'd just agree, accept it and move on but have we really sunk to a point where such warnings are needed on things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longcol Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Summat likely got lost in the translation from Korean - likely don't use the frozen liquid as ice cubes / drink the liquid - eg Korean probably do not consume/ do not imbibe/ do not swallow.

And all the soap powder / washing capsules adverts telling peope to keep them out of reach of their children / not to. feed them to their children. Don't remember any soap ads or their packaging up to the past decade or so carrying such warnings? I'm surprised the past couple of generations weren't decimated because they weren't told not to gobble down Acdo or Fairy Liquid. But as Axe states, people are quick to chance their arm at suing, especially if they can get a no-win, no-fee law firm to take them on.
