# Because the stupidity doesn't stop surprising me. *Seems that when the medium is not a treat anymore, the human decides to be its own treat.* I don't want to be rude... but I think that all these trends come from North America... more specifically from a country which name I won't mention. ~~United States~~ Since the cinnamon spoon challenge and the TV show Jackass from MTV (back in the 2000's) that I knew that there was ~~retards everywhere around~~ something special with these people.

Well, I could understand these previous challenges or trends because you can ignore the effects of cinnamon or it could be funny to see someone receiving a shot of an egg traveling at 90km/h directly to the balls (I just made this up). ## But the actual trending is absolutely beyond any comprehension. If you are not a US citizen you will probably not know what Tide Pods are. And you may not even be familiarized with their shape. Long story short, **it is laundry detergent**. Would you eat laundry soap? Well... nope. Right? ### Those people would.

[Source](https://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/videos/tide-pod-challenge-teens-film-themselves-eating-detergent-pods-w/) > "The National Capital Poison Center warns that laundry pods are posing an unexpected problem for young children who bite into them, causing injury and even death. Adults with dementia are also at risk of mistakenly ingesting the poisonous pods. > A 2017 report says two children and six adults with cognitive impairment have died in the past five years from ingesting the pods." > [Source](http://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/this-new-internet-trend-is-dumber-than-all-of-2017-and-deadly/) These pods have a list of ingredients that are toxic to humans, including polymers and **[linear alkylbenzene sulfonate](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC92899/)**. Which it already sounds bad by itself. --- --- ## My thoughts *Well... I would rather go with a big "nothing to do here".* For me this is a **natural selection**in times where the phone is smarter than the owner. If these people can't survive in a whole environment set for their survival. Well, sorry not sorry. This way they won't breed at least and their stupid genome will fade with them. **In my opinion** it is not even close to be the fault of the companies that make this product but the failure of the family to raise their children. *I believe this is because of the ignorance of those people, that don't give value to life and don't even care about developing themselves like human beings but they only want to be part of a tribe that would find joy watching them dying on a non-sense trend.* Thanks and see you in the next one --- ---
