Their body, their choice. Don’t make me pay for it.

[Secret Agent Man]

Or “Grum” the fake inhaled drug made from crap, from Moonbeam City.

[kjam22]

Millennials so worried about climate change destroying the planet that they are eating laundry detergent...??

[ThePatriotsFlag]

Let them eat Tide ... Darwin at work.

[Calvin Locke]

True, but dangerous for torpedoes. I think a UK sub lost its bow in port when some HTP fuel leaked on to some silver solder.

[EinNYC]

They are cleaning up the gene pool for the rest of us. How appropriate that they are using detergent to do it. Victims of “Too Stupid to Live” syndrome.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Hmmm, saw a Tide commercial the other week promoting its locking safety bag, iirc.

Thinking about it, the safety issue was long ago addressed by mfgs of automatic dishwasher detergents because [real] kids were mistaking the colorful tabs for candy, since most people probably keep the stuff under the kitchen sink.

[reformed_dem]

I love them, they are so convenient, but watch them get banned now because of stupid people.

[AbolishCSEU]

those darn child labor laws. Idle hands.

[Blood of Tyrants]

LOL!

[dfwgator]

You mean illegal immigrants who have made it impossible for teens to get jobs anymore.

[carmen2017]

We used to call that Thinning the Herd.

[rlmorel]

Just. Wow.

[Mears]

“People are just plain out stupid these days.”

Teens have never been known for their common sense-———there was even a goldfish eating craze years ago.

When I’m tempted to give a calloused response to these morons’ stupidity resulting in death, I think of those who care about these kids: parents, siblings, family, friends, teachers, etc. I feel a lot more sympathy. Yes, what they did is beyond stupid but it hurts a lot of innocent people.

[Gay State Conservative]

Ten bucks says that there are lawsuits pending against the maker of Tide...and another 10 bucks says that at least some juries will rule in favor of the plaintiff.

[RetiredTexasVet]

And if they survive without catastrophic brain damage, they’ll probably vote Democratic
