Did we already forget about the Tide Pods? This isn’t new, it’s just a different social media platform.
You mean another fad that was blown out of proportion by one generation trying to prove the idiocy of another?
Yes, that is indeed my point.
I wouldn’t call idiocy leading to ER admissions as ‘blown out of proportions’. That aside, I still don’t understand what you prove by consuming something as distasteful as tide pods.
I would call it blown out of proportion when it was treated like an epidemic when it was little more than a few people who ever did it. Most just joked about it, and taunted the old fogeys who got bent out of shape about it.

If a woman takes the first tooth that; a child has shed, provided it has not touched the ground, and has it set in a bracelet, and wears it constantly upon her arm, it will preserve her from all pains in the uterus and adjacent parts.
For the cure of cataract, it is reckoned a good plan to apply a wolf’s excrements

lol I was confused for a moment because Pliny the Elder is also the name of a beer. I was like, I am pretty sure Russian River Brewing has access
