a few days ago i was reading a warning sticker on a barbeque lighter heres what it said:

Warning. chocking hazard. not for children under 3 years of age.

what choking parts? and when does a 4 year old know any more about burning alive than a 3 year old? a lot apparently.

I seriously doubt a lighter could be swallowed. And as far as burning a person on fire, if the kid to a bath in gasoline, then yes, other then that, he'll get a blister and just shit himself crying.

Personally, I'm kinda surprised that they focused on the dangers of it being a choking hazard rather than a "burn yourself black and crusty" hazard.

dammit. how can i say this. it was a barbeque lighter. and it said it had choking parts. the barbeque light was just one piece. and it said it wasn't for children under 3 years of age.

Well it IS possible to swallow/choke on a lighter and plus they have to have a warning label for any case they don't get sued.

yea thats basically why all the companys put stupid labels on anything becasue they dont want to get sued becasue there are many ways to get around logic when it comes to money like the woman who sued mcdoanalds becasue she didnt know their coffe was hot, dumbasses like her are the reason for these ridonkilous warning labels

On the bottom of the box: "Do not turn box upside down"

On a hairdryer "do not use while sleeping"

On a bottle of Children's nyquil, cuz we know has maniacal kids get behind the wheel "Do not use or operate heavy machinery after dosage"
