I used to believe people do this for lack of brain matter, but now I believe its because they enjoy seeing other people come and shove an internet stick up their asses…

…sideways.

raelalt

So you decided to comply with their desires.

Pootick

Maybe he was hoping someone would shove a sidways stick up HIS ass?

Or perhaps a cactus?

Wonder where they got all the super-midget kids for the first photo, and where they got the giant kids for the second.

Jackie Pancake

For the small kids, I mean.

 
 
 
 
WC

Totally. What’s up with this?

For those that can’t see it, the second photo is from a slightly different angle, and appears smaller than it actually is. Judge it by the kids’ knees and you can see it’s the same size.

The real fail is these ungrateful brats. In my day *mumble mumble*

Yo, Water Closet –
There’s a long comments page devoted to consumers’ disappointment with the “actually is” size of this product online:

I bought one of their products - a volley ball net for the pool.
Same brand and manufacturer.
It looked HUGE on the front, and it was puny and it won’t stay afloat.
This isn’t so much as misleading as it is (or should be) illegal!
I was going to bring it back, but I ended up taking too long.
And losing the reciept.
Dammit.

I actually bought this toy this summer and it is not as big as the photo–the children in the photo on the box are obviously much older and bigger than these kids. In addition, the pool wouldn’t actually stay inflated new out of the box. Sympathy fail!

This fail is much like the fail my wife experienced when first unwrapping my “pool”. No, it’s not a Transformer and there is not more than meets the eye.

they should have read the dimentions

Admiral Apparent

Don’t mension the dimentions.

Okay…generally and furthermore the plea is self-defense

the only thing currently in my face is this computer screen

they just used really (really really) small children to model the paddling pool for the side of the box.

How do you know the other kids aren’t just huge?
Children of the Amazon

Ashley

lol They bought the pool in Liliput. xD

HerHeartIsAMachine

Knew we shouldn’t have trusted those little people after they tied me down..
But the price was too good to decline

 
 
QUAB

that’s what i thought! look how small that basketball is compared to the kids.

 
 
 
Joel

Or they used a bigger size of waterslide.

or the kids on the right just haven’t gotten into the water yet and shrunk

Admiral Apparent

I’m thankful that I wasn’t drinking when I read that.

There seemed to be no use in waiting by the little door, so she went back to the table, half hoping she might find another key on it, or at any rate a book of rules for shutting people up like telescopes: this time she found a little bottle on it, (`which certainly was not here before,’ said Alice,) and round the neck of the bottle was a paper label, with the words `DRINK ME’ beautifully printed on it in large letters.
.
It was all very well to say `Drink me,’ but the wise little Alice was not going to do THAT in a hurry. `No, I’ll look first,’ she said, `and see whether it’s marked “poison” or not’; for she had read several nice little histories about children who had got burnt, and eaten up by wild beasts and other unpleasant things, all because they WOULD not remember the simple rules their friends had taught them: such as, that a red-hot poker will burn you if your hold it too long; and that if you cut your finger VERY deeply with a knife, it usually bleeds; and she had never forgotten that, if you drink much from a bottle marked `poison,’ it is almost certain to disagree with you, sooner or later.
.
However, this bottle was NOT marked `poison,’ so Alice ventured to taste it, and finding it very nice, (it had, in fact, a sort of mixed flavour of cherry-tart, custard, pine-apple, roast turkey, toffee, and hot buttered toast,) she very soon finished it off.
.
* * * * * * *

* * * * * *

.
`What a curious feeling!’ said Alice; `I must be shutting up like a telescope.’
.
And so it was indeed: she was now only ten inches high, and her face brightened up at the thought that she was now the right size for going though the little door into that lovely garden. First, however, she waited for a few minutes to see if she was going to shrink any further: she felt a little nervous about this; `for it might end, you know,’ said Alice to herself, `in my going out altogether, like a candle. I wonder what I should be like then?’ And she tried to fancy what the flame of a candle is like after the candle is blown out, for she could not remember ever having seen such a thing….

That’s what you get for drinking pan-galactic gargle blasters.

Thanks, I’ve decided to put the uniform on now that I’ve finished …

it’s also a matter of perspective…but frankly, you can find the dimensions on the box before you buy it ;)

Dann

What kind of sicko reads the box?
You’re one of those types that looks at the ingredients I bet.
You people make me sick. :D

FacialTurd

So, what you’re saying is: You buy products because of the picture on the front?

Mouse

Imagine the disappointment when buying Gerber. Instead of baby you get mashed carrots.

I buy all my stuff from vending machines that way. :)

usually when buying foodstuff i just read the name and/or decription however i usually read the ingreadients after i have eaten it wondering “what the hell was that sh*t i just ate.

I don’t think this Wild Waves Water Park comes from our universe; I bet it was imported from one of those non-expanding ones.

 
Erin

They just needed to read the fine print-this pool is for Oompa Loopas, not children! Can’t you see how orange the tiny people are on the box?

dolt

yeah it must have run out of red ink, hence the people do not appear orange

 
 
 
 
Andy

Not so fail… There is no visible difference between the two other than that there are way more kids on the box. Kids usually aren’t included, so this fail is fail.

ZuRG

Look at the relative size of the kids on each half of the pic. A much, much larger model was used in the advertising picture. Note how in the picture there’s room for 4-5 kids to sit comfortably in the pool portion, but in the product received, 2 kids couldn’t do anything without knocking into each other. The one depicted is maybe 10′x5′x5′ (arch), the one received is maybe 6′x4′x4′.

what a dick move.

Kids “usually” aren’t included….?
