    You know what FUCKIN GRINDS MY GEARS!!!

    All these kids toys that you need to swap batteries out consistently has these fucking screws you need to unscrew…

    And yet, something like a remote that the cover gets pulled off like MAYBE once a year, doesn’t have one, and the cover breaks/falls off, goes missing.

    Remove the screw from the kids toys… no one in the 80’s/90’s ever swallowed a god damn battery… besides they’re all internal lithium now anyway…

    PUT THE MINI-SCREW ON THE REMOTES!!! For the love of fuck…

      So…you’re pissed about screws that don’t exist?

      Also, survival bias doesn’t mean something isn’t a hazard.

        The ones that aren’t internal still exist.

        Also, survival bias doesn’t mean something isn’t a hazard.

        Well in that case we should all carry magical rocks around our necks to prevent people from being attacked by bears

        See how that works the other way?

      Is it for safety? So kids don’t swallow the batteries?

        Search ‘Fidget Toys’ on Amazon, some of them are amazing.
