Oh, how I would love to see Something Awful infiltrate the BBC competition.

my god. I have actually seen "beware of fridges" shorts. It was yonks ago, but I remember

I used to be terrified of Electricity Pylons. I thought they were traps that maliciously attracted frisbees in order to electrocute young children.

I'm scared of my gf's hello-kitty doll that she takes to bed with her. It's black soulless eyes see all

They see you when you do that thing (you know the one, don't pretend you don't).

 

[TdC]

what thing?

Those old safety films were truly frightening. I remember the lad's face as he was about to get whacked by the train. I also remember the one about swimming in a nice cold pond/lake on a hot summer's day.

Those films should be shocking. They should make children cry. That way they won't go and bloody well do it will they!

imagine it now though, instead of a kid falling into the water and someone going 'YOU WILL DIE!'. it'd end up like....

Scene: a group of people, ages ranging from 3 to 95 and of all race and nationalities (a few token disabled people too) all gather at a health & safety approved park with a pond.

There are no ducks, due to the bird flu quarantine, so they decide to go for a swim but - OH NOES!! - they haven't learnt to swim due to the decline in public swimming baths and the fact that there's bound to be a pervert recording them on video for a later wank, who will then abduct them and eat them.

Some bystanders seem keen to help, but decide not to for fear of assault and/or sexual harrasment charges. Most drown, except one of each creed. God, Muhammed and various other deities decide not to stick their oars in for fear of war and uprising.

The survivors all call personal accident helplines advertised on ITV2 during the afternoon.

Fade to blac... I mean a background of indeterminate ethnic origin, with a nice big sign for the partially sighted saying 'Nothing's your fault, SUE SUE SUE!'.





Probably

Hmm actually I dis-agree with the bbc article writer - the fridge thing is not a 'fad of the 70's' - they still warn kids about them to this day and a number of children are still killed by abandoned fridges - I guess the person who wrote the article has no kids and is thus out of touch.
