Stupid Warning Signs Revisited

In and of itself, this warning sign might actually be quite useful in some instances.

It reads:

"Children can fall into bucket and drown. Keep children away from bucket with even a small amount of liquid."

Makes sense, until you realize that this particular warning was found on, of all things, a container of scoopable cat litter! Also, notice the size of the child in the picture as compared to the size of the bucket. How would a child that size actually fit his or her head far enough into the bucket to drown in the first place?

also, perhaps some sort of volunteer spaying/neutering service for children found drowning in the bucket. if we are going to save them and defeat the darwinian principle should we not make sure that the genes are at least not passed on? the service should, perhaps, not be voluntary for the parents, though. If you can't teach your child not to drown in cat litter your career as a waste technician probably isn't going so well.
