PHYRST!
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.
So you decided to comply with their desires.
Maybe he was hoping someone would shove a sidways stick up HIS ass?
Or perhaps a cactus?
Cacti, please.
You fail, cacti is the plural.
Maybe multiple penetration?
Hmm… a sideways stick for one hole and a cactus for the other. – Gellman wants it realllly bad I guess.
Those kids are HUGE!
But you appear appropriately equipped for them, Governess.
win!
Haha! Yeah, they look way bigger than the kids on the box!
Fail… The point of the double penetration comment was that cacti, the plural being used was correct… But if you use a cacti and a STICK… that’s no longer plural cacti…
As you were so dutifully trying to point out… Cacti is plural…thus, there is no using “a cacti.”
Sorry, but do try again!
that’s pretty metal.
It is, so how did s/he fail?
PEDOBEAR WIN!
caus the kids wanted the thing really bad. and its exactally like the one in the picture but, they were really unhappy with it. So the parents failed in a sense
That’s not what I was referring to.
When one cactus just wont do…
*sideways
Wonder where they got all the super-midget kids for the first photo, and where they got the giant kids for the second.
Hobbiton.
For the small kids, I mean.
obviously…
Or maybe Hobbiton is where the toy came from? Parents shopping in an alternate universe again? The discounts aren’t worth it!
Failblog fails again.
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:
consumerist.com/5031698/banzai-wild-waves-water-park-box-picture-vs-reality
redred
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.
you mean “take it back”?
For someone who’s so nitpicky about grammar, it’s odd that you would forget to capitalize your posts.
Burned.
Not to mention the question mark being outside the closing quotation.
No Rosemourne, you are incorrect with that statement. Reread your copy of The English Language 101.
ps. nothin feels beddah than outsmugging a smug tw@t
It’s outside the quotes in Britain, and inside the quotes in America. Not sure in other places. So neither of you are particularly wrong.
No, that is also incorrect.
It has nothing to do with Britain and American English.
Here’s the difference: (Take notes)
When the sentence that is asking the question is within the quotes, then the question mark is within the quotes.
If the ENTIRE sentence is a question, then the question mark goes outside.
Example:
Who said, “I have a dream”?
conversely –
John asked, “How are you?”
Perhaps it’s that case in Britain. I’m not sure. However, I am pretty sure that, even in your country, a comma would still be placed after “No” in that sentence. Perhaps you could read your own copy of The English Language 101. If you have misplaced your copy, please visit the following website:
http://owl.english.purdue.edu/handouts/grammar/g_comma.html
Aww. I couldn’t find any errors in this post.
I wanted to continue the long set of corrections on each other. =/
First, you have all made a serious nerd fail. Secondly, the sentence is a fragment so, double fail.
When will you ever say ‘Yo, Water Closet’ in your life again? That’s funny…
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!
Don’t you mean Fail sympathy!
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.
Self-burn? Does that even count? Or low-self-esteem fail, maybe?
I’VE BEEN RIP OFF!
they should have read the dimentions
Don’t mension the dimentions.
And preserve your memory for the dementias.
HA HA HA
win
dimetrodons? I thought it was a water park not jurassic (technically permian but there’s no movie about that) park…
kids of different ages have knees at different heights. and um. yeah the difference is blatantly obvious. you can’t just forge something like this by changing the ANGLE of something.
You, WC, are blind. Compare the relative size of the children versus the inflatable water park in each photo to be enlightened.
fist!
(in your face)
hey mr dobalina, are you mr bob dobalina, by any chance?
China Clipper calling Alameda…
Okay…generally and furthermore the plea is self-defense
It is of my opinion that the people are intending…
Zilch…zilch…zilch
I’m gonna buy me a dog…a dog! a dog? a dog. Why?
Coz I need a friend now.
I NEED A FRIEND NOOOOWWWW!
boop-boop-shabopbop-a-ramalam…
You guys are monkees.
Hee!
And you know everyone under a certain age are scratching their heads and wondering what the hell any of that means.
*goes away chanting “Mr. Dobalina, Mr. Bob Dobalina”*
fail to be first
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.
midget children: the oldest trick in the book
How do you know the other kids aren’t just huge?
Children of the Amazon
lol They bought the pool in Liliput. xD
Knew we shouldn’t have trusted those little people after they tied me down..
But the price was too good to decline
that’s what i thought! look how small that basketball is compared to the kids.
that’s so true
Or they used a bigger size of waterslide.
or the kids on the right just haven’t gotten into the water yet and shrunk
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….

to pharaphrase marvin, that comment is the least benightedly unintellingent one it has been my extreme lack of pleasure to be unable to avoid reading
Lewis Carroll WIN!
Of course, with all that opium (reputed to be) in his system, he might have fallen for the hoax on this box, too.
Maybe we should go ask Alice about that (she might have fallen for the rabbit hole).
it’s also a matter of perspective…but frankly, you can find the dimensions on the box before you buy it
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.
So, what you’re saying is: You buy products because of the picture on the front?
Imagine the disappointment when buying Gerber. Instead of baby you get mashed carrots.
Similarly when guys buy womens underwear. In fact it seems to have the opposite effect.
Actually you get mashed baby. You just can’t tell the difference because A) you don’t eat enough baby and B) you don’t eat enough carrots either.
lol win.
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.
You are what you eat. I suggest you switch to the named brand Alpha-Bits before you Post again.
(And lay off the sh*t.)
LOL … and wow … you totally decrypted that dude
That is burn of the week material!
The ingredients are there for entertainment while eating the product
Actually, I think anyone can find the dimensions on the box, not just Frankly.
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.
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?
Printer fail
yeah it must have run out of red ink, hence the people do not appear orange
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.
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….?
BOX O’KIDS=FAIL
kids always come pre-assorted in bags (but not in bins)
Only infant girls.
usually in various sizes
Men are from Mars, women are from Ebay
Real girls are from Lars.
But earth girls are easy.
Plastic girls are from Hooters.
boo-bees?
Ok, Ok, I am officially done with that particular joke now… I am thinking we need to get back to the sophisticated wit and sarcastic humor we all fell in love with in the beginning. Back in the day when a random *masturbation* was appreciated to break up the seriousness of true word smithing. Not the other way around…
some women are from a screaming-about-your-penis contest…
From ’snug’ to ‘roomy’.
banzaaiii
… across the eighth dimension.
Wherever you go, there you are.
That’s true Buckaroo.
*trims a bonsai tree*
What a coincedence! I just trimmed mine!
Ummmmm…did you mean a “coinkedink”?
Or, mayhap, a “coinkidink”?
:p
oops. what a vile slip-up. *self-flagellates*
That is a redundant statement… Bonsai tree = little tree tree….
Way to go and be redundant.
is that the plural of “banana”
It was a crap comedy show.
Bonanza?
Nah, it was called Banzai.
I remember a show called “Bonanza” but not one called Banzai.
(psst: Earlier references were to the cult movie “The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension”)
.
Now that I’ve given it away I will probably be “disappeared”.
Banzai was a British show so you probably wouldn’t know it anyway.
I saw a show about it (as well as others) though. Looked like one of those silly Japanese game shows.
Yeah, it’s a British parody of them. It had some good bits but I just found it annoying.
Your mother has some good bits.
There, I believe that satisfies the “Dumb Comment of the Week” category I just made up two minutes ago.
Ahh it all makes sense. I now understand the urge I have
been sensing to be dumber than the previous poster.
I know it. One of my friends was Mr. Shake Hands Man. Now and then he’ll get enough residuals to buy a small hamburger.
Wherever you disappear, there you aren’t.
I knew it! I’m doomed.
Maybe they used a fish-eye lens on the package photo.
Then the pool would still be in proportion to the objects next to it, this is fraudulant representaion.
Tisk tisk FailBlog. You’re having a pretty off day so far. Lets pick it up a bit people, you’re actually making me look forward to going to class.
looks like cropping to me!
That’s actually quite sad…
Only two children instead of six?
Procreation fail.
you’re wrong, no friends
social fail
Reminds me of a young me..
*tear*
There, there *pats back*
Hey! It’s hard to make friend when you are a mammoth child!
probably only works with six children
only two children per box included*
*(may vary in size/shape/gender/race)
Batteries not included.
Warning: May contain nuts.
But (possibly) no dairy.
Flavored with meat.
warning, may contain instant seafood.
*Warning*
Thread may contain cheese
*additional children sold separatly
Or found in a convenient bin. Or is it a bin?
Nope not a bin.
Tubs…. Always found in tubs…..
Finally, something to do with all those unwanted kids instead of abort them! Quick, call the government! We’ve got an alternative to Roe vs. Waide!
ruined summer
Poor kids.
don’t think so, cuz they know how to FAIL! And that’s an epic win!
Come on, there’s always room for more fail in the world. For instance, if one of them actually drowned in that cheap-arse inflatable, that kid would’ve reached FAIL Nirvana.
you’re so harsh!
i actually feel sorry for these kids
i must be going mad … i have never felt sorry for anyone in a fail before … or indeed anyone i have ever met
Empathy fail.
Antipathy win.
I could say that talking about kids dying was bad taste, but I laughed

Poor reality.
I don’t think this is real; I think it’s a photoshop.
…and Fuzz has seen quite a many pixels in his time.
… and some Pixies … (but not the You-know-what Pixtols)
*sill wondering where is his mind*
Saw the Pixies at Berkeley during the ‘04 tour when the Distillers opened for them. Good show all the way around.

To late, Josh Homme has beat you to it.
But at least I made it to her dressing room.
oooo … did you see her peeling?
Dude, she was crazed!
hah, I liked their music, (reminded me of the Avengers) but I was there because the drummer is my ex’s son.

(If she’d hit me, I’d have got everything I need
The way you feel is ok, it’s never going to change anyway
No, it’s a water park. Duh, Fuzz!
That’s why reality SUCKS!!!1
Alex-X-x, are you ok?
You’re gonna start looking kinda green any minute now … or, actually, seven.
oh, doe’s that mean, i’m alien? That suck’s then!
Doe snot.
:beast:
An apparently out-dated WordPress website menu lists a green-faced smiley critter for “:beast:”; and Fuzz apparently thought that a green beast would be a fitting post following references to looking green and critter snot.
You and your smileys…
*switches off lightbulb*
Yeesh, you are a wasteful dragon. Theres an energy crisis you know
Actually, I was mooning you.
Oh. Wow. Ok.
Wipe that arrogant little smirk off your face, young lady!
[insert smiley here]
Thats pretty pathetic really… maybe theres fine print on the box that says its for kids 5 and under? Must be six inches tall to enjoy this ride?
I think it’s: you must be _less than_ 6 inches tall to enjoy this ride
Then it’d be like a whole water park!
Lean over and I’ll show you 6 inches enjoying the ride.
Dildo Win?
That’s it. I can stand it no longer. With that joke, Loz, you have finished your work of stealing my heart. I can’t hold it back any more.
I love you.
Please marry me!

Thanks Fuzz
what!!! this comment fails on so many levels
1) you are against old repetitive jokes
2) you’re a woman … and let’s not go any further on that train of thought
3)ummm … i’ll think of somthing just give me time
ha
3) that was the worst of the repetitive jokes
4) that was the most disturbing version i have ever heard
come on loz i thought you were intteligent … where did it all go wrong?
That’s no inttel gent, that’s my Lo-Lo-lo-Loza.
L – O – Z – A – Loza
*never ignores a Kinks reference*
*feels good getting the kinks out*
Kinky.
Hmm, I’m not sure what happened. I just felt my fingers moving uncontrollably… before I knew it, I’d clicked ‘add comment’.
I don’t regret it. If I hadn’t said it someone else would have!
(I’m liking the name Loza, perhaps I should go for a change, fu-fu-fuzza.)
Yeah, but then some stuck-up troll’s going to call you “looza”.
After which Loz will hand them their teeth.
Loz-a-apalooza!
Yes, raelalt, but you know as well as I do that trolls never learn
Hahaha. Thanks for the helpful forward-thinking, Shadow. You got my back!
Maybe it should just be my actual name. A pint and a pink rubber fist for the first person to correctly guess it!
I hope it’s Rebecca. I’ve always liked girls named Rebecca.
I like Rebecca too, but sadly it’s not
Do you still love me?
It would take a lot more then just one pint before I would even consider taking the rubber fist. Especially if it is one of those “slightly stained” ones.
Lulubelle? Eunice? Myrtle? Fanny? Gertrude? Mathilda? Beatrice?
LOL. I wish it was any of those.
raelalt, you’re not fooling anyone
Now just what are you implying?
Judith?
I’m implying that you are the cause of the stains
Ah, Loz. Of course I still love you.
*kiss*

Fiona? Dezeree? Susan? Alice? Allison? Alexis? Janice? Margaret? Melissa?
“I’m implying that you are the cause of the stains”, she ejaculated.
I didn’t do it, no one saw me, you can’t prove a thing.
Melody? Keira? Adara? Cadence? Grace? Bernadette? Brielle? Liela? Sharon? Sierra? Alana? Danielle? Kiana? Kimberly? Bailey? Kiera? Callie? Katie? Keiran?
Dezeree?! Is it not Desiree? I guess if you’re going to call your child that, you may as well give it a silly spelling to boot.
I’m surprised you haven’t realised it should logically begin with an L!
Keiran (or Ciaran) is a boy’s name!
And no.
Jennifer? Gena? Krystal (or Crystal)? Rose? Bree? Breanna? Elizabeth? Victoria?
Kieran*
Lol I knew a girl named keiran once.
I do have a thing for Bree from Desperate Housewives…
Oh… L… hmmm…
Lora? Leah? Lillian? Lin? Lily? Lian?
By Lora do you mean Laura, and by Lin do you mean Lynne, and by Lian do you mean Leanne? Names are so bizarre.
Sure. Whatever. Am I right?
Loz… loz… hmmm…
Liz?
Possibly
if you meant one of those three…
I did.
ok, you win! Now, touch your toes…
No thanks. A simple hug and kiss will suffice.
So, which one is it?
*hugs, with a big wet smooch*
You’ll never know which one it is, muahahaha.
L’appelle?
I really hope it’s Lily or Leanne. Such pretty names
Fuzz, did you just use a euphemism for calling me a jacket collar?
La belle label?
L’appareil?
La belle Liamhain?
Le garçon faile…
Denied!
That’s a weird name for a girl.
My parents were confused by my lack of penis.
Look here, Shadow, that didn’t even start with an “L”.
Let’s not get lackadaisical!

Zelda, Legend of.
Which one?
Time, Ocarina of?
Past, A Link to The?
Or perhaps it was Gamelon, Wand of. *shudders*
*shudders*
*hugs dragon*
*snork!*
I’m not even part of this conversation!
Still…I seem to be collecting lots of hugs today. Always nice.
My prom date’s name was Leanne.
It’s gotta be Ocarina of Time. None of the other come close!

Kids in swimming suits. Don’t touch this, Mr. Sausage.
Heheh…he can’t.
He’s being filtered.
Bet it’s not keeping him from touching himself though.
What he does in his mom’s basement is his business. But he won’t be doing it around me or anyone else here anymore.
What do you mean? Mr Sausage has left us?
Not that I’m sad or anything.
He went back to Vienna.
Damn comments not posting. Why has he gone?
Occasionally I notice a delay when I post a comment and the screen refresh takes me to the top of the page instead of back to my posted comment. Then minutes later my post appears, ABOVE any subsequent post I may have written thinking that the first one was shit-canned. I hate it when that happens.
I notice that with posts that contain url’s and naughty words. When they do appear, they show up in the time slot they were originally submitted.
He’s not necessarily gone, Loz. But I reported him to the Mod for harassment because he would not leave me alone when I asked him to. So now all of his comments are being filtered, and only the non-harassing ones will be allowed through.
Disturbing then that we have not seen hide nor hair of him since then. Is it possible that EVERYTHING he said was harassing?
Heh heh…that’s sort of what the mod said in her email back to me. She seemed a tad skeptical that there would be any “relevant” posts to approve.
And how are things going with the boy??
Things with the boy are exceptionaly good right now! I just got back into town yesterday afternoon and last night was…… very very good! A week away from him was not the most fun, but making up for lost time was.
Exciting.
I was merely answering a question. She DID ask.
I did…and I AM excited for you!
*gives Shadow the stink-eye*
Don’t mind him. He’s just cranky when he doesn’t get his popcorn.
Well then…..
*pops up bath-tub sized bag of popcorn*
I’m more than willing to share. The popcorn. Just the popcorn.
I just had popcorn (I was watching The Orphanage) so I’ll pass this time.
And bless you, Dragonchild, for reporting him!
*puts butter on popcorn*
Ah, yes, that’s the stuff…
And actually Avis, I am excited for you. I was just saying that because I couldn’t think up a witty retort. But yeah. I’m happy for you. *hugz*
Awww, thank you!! I promise to only allude to things and not give details. No one needs to know all that but the boy and me.
*throws some parmesean and some oregano into a small batch of the popcorn*
Mmmmmmmmmmm….I’m glad your sharin’!
…Wait. No, actually, that would be me…
And by “your sharin’” I meant to say, “your sharin’ ways are so generous, and are much appreciated.”
Yup. Yup, I did.
oh my, did I hurt your feelings?
it’s the aesthetics, dude
the sausage wiener posts have tended to the crassly asinine and uninterestingly ugly
yeah…who is she to telll whose posts are ok and whose are not?

CHILD ITEMS

HAVE PASSED THEIR
EXPIRATION DATE

Way to work, Blue!
The photographer obviously shrunk the size of the children slightly, or perhaps used a wide-angle lens.
But honestly, this isn’t such a huge difference that I looked at it and said “ohmigosh FAIL!” I just shrugged and said “meh”.
*looks at ensignabby’s post*
*shruggs*
Meh…
well i thought they must have different sizes, put the picture of the biggest on all of them and then sold them.
My friend has this one and couldn’t get the arch to stand up at all.
Maybe your friend is doing it wrong? *waves to fuzz in recognition for the BEST burn ever*

Maybe your friend is doing it wrong? *waves to Fuzz in recognition of the BEST burn ever*

Mmmmmm…Thanks Fuzz, I needed that.
The double post was a computer malfunction. What was I suppossed to do when, after hitting “post”, I got the “this page is temporarily unavailable” screen? So, alas, I posted twice, never imagining both would actually post. And what the hell happened to the first post to give it so many obvious grammar and spelling errors? Must HAVE had a rough ride through the tubes on ITS way to posting…
Mmmmm, thanks Fuzz I needed that.
As to the double posting…What am I to do when I hit “post” and I get “This page is temporarily unavailable” screen. Alas, to my dismay, I posted again, only to be thwarted by the intertubes, which, also to my dismay, must *HAVE* horribly disfigured my original posting on *ITS* way through, did you see the grammatical errors strewn haphazardly throughout the minefield of spelling atrocities?

Merci beaucoup.

Does that make you the French tickler or me the French tickled?
LOL … I don’t suppose we’d have to have that French made into a l’un ou l’autre, do you?
Why, you can even be French made as a French maid, if you are so pleased.
*offers to French her language maker*
It’s hard to talk with my mouth full…
*smile*
In that case, we can let our tongues do the talkin’ …
Get a room, you two.
That sounds quite chambr’ing.
Was I not using my tongue to talk already?
Why do we need a room when we have a perfectly good nest right here?
Poor kids
Uhh, not sure why this is a big deal. Misrepresentation of size/quality happens all the time. Buyer beware. This fail is weak sauce…
couldn’t they get done for misrepresentation.
we do have a govenment for somthing you know … to protect the consumer and employee from greedy fat arsed corporations and their stockbrokers
i meant to fit “lazy” in that offence somwhere … i just forgot
Weak sauce? Like marinara sauce?
Now I want some pasta.
Ho-sauce?
Goes very nicely on angel-hair pasta. Good for your RDA of irony.
Mariner sauce?
Goes good with fish sticks.
So if you bought a pool and it turns out to be a sink, you wouldn’t be pissed off?
It’s not the size of your inflatable water slide, it’s how many kids you can get to go down it.
Look at the sides of the pool…the larger one has some yellow shit on it, the smaller one does not. Two different versions of the same product…they just didn’t pony up for the “deluxe” model. I don’t think it’s photoshopped…shadows are too good.
You can photoshop that if you hire GOOD retouchers. Trust me, it’s amazing what they can do.
They simply haven’t blown it up enough. More air, more size.
At least that’s what I keep telling her.
For a prime seaman, weigh, hey, blow the man … um … up.
I’ve always found that blowing really doesn’t increase the size as much as sucking does.
Done a lot of research on this have you?

You’re a salty sea-dog, aren’t you?
You don’t know how perverted that conversation sounds.
Are you sure?
Positive.

I think the real fail is the design of the toy. Why would you want to slide right into the middle of the basketball “court”?
To receive a marriage proposal.
Or to decline one!
Or to incline with one knee during one.
Or to recline with two backs following one.
ungrateful brats.
Next time they should get the hose…without the watery pleasure
Aw, those poor kids. I like their sad little faces. lol
Ok at first I thought the fail was the fact this pool didn’t ‘bring all the kids to the yard’
Not enough milkshake in it, I’m afraid.
Milkshake? Is that dairy free?
May contain soy.
I…don’t get it. Glad I’m not the only one.
Saddest. Fail. Ever. Seriously, I wanna buy those kids a puppy.
Just don’t make it a Golden Retriever, or they’re gonna need a bigger pool.
This “First” BS pisses me off more than anything. It’s so freaking pointless. But I guess expressing my anger is just going to make them want to do it all the more.
Wow, I’m impressed with how you can write with just the power of your thoughts!
But apparently he cannot use them to click the “Reply to this Comment”.
My family has this. It is definitely smaller than it looks! And unless you weigh 2 pounds, the kids can’t use the slide. It collapses under any amount of weght.
There’s no way you could sit on the edge like that one boy in the picture!
This is for real… go to walmart and you’ll see a bunch of these inflatable pools…. the kids are photoshopped into them. there is even a mistake with one of the kids where there hand is on top of something that they’re supposed to go under. Anyhow… kids will still love it, but it still very misleading…. lol… i pissed my pants when i saw one out of the box and saw how small it actually was….
Here is a larger version of that picture:

Two different models (or the box photo is photoshopped). Look at the outside pattern, or that the inside of the pool is translucent on the box photo, unlike the real one. It’s a big, big scam.
I have this pool and it does not fail.
Wow, this one actually pisses me off. Any normal-sized kid using that useless “slide” on the real item is going to send his feet right into the opposite side of the pool, which (at BEST) will shorten the life of the whole mess.
One illiterate above attempted to type out “look at the dimensions” and certainly, that’s true if you write ‘em down, go home, measure out the actual size, and have an amazing gift for visualization. It still doesn’t change the fact that the picture on the box is blatantly false.
Someone should be beaten with aluminum baseball bats for that package. Now THERE’s some fun for the whole family!

Your ability to NO U! other people’s posts by switching a couple of words is truly impressive, and I’m sure you’re an incredibly creative person and not a pathetic walking dickhole at all. Seriously. I mean that. You’re just as awesome and cool as your overused smiley.
no here’s a better picture. you can clearly see it’s a doctored photo. the girl on the slide appears to way 0. the boy sitting on the pool edge also appears to way 0. both children are mal-nourished to where they can’t make a simple indention on an air-filled “toy”.
i sympathize w/ the kids. i don’t pretend to come off as a hard ass, callous tough & smart motherf*cker like some here. “ewww, you so bad a55. can i be yo b1tch please”. it’s hilarious.
i didn’t know there were so many “tough as nails” people in the world.
hey, go tell yourself somemore how you’re so bad@55. go on. do it some more. you know it’s true you bad@55 you. oh, can i have your internet autograph. hey, i’d like it if you were tough in front of me.
get a heart @55holes. those kids need understanding or they’ll just be 2 legged pieces of turd like you that YOU’ll have to put up with in your wrinkled old age.
hey, go punch yourself in the face for me please.
no weigh …

*examines ass*
Hey…I don’t think my ass is all that bad…
Nah, Dragon, your ass is fiiiiiiiiiiine…
Dude, you were supposed to take the blue pills, NOT the yellow ones!

(too fail; didn’t read)
Thats not a fail, its a total Marketing Win!!!
BTW, i do firmly believe that MARKETING IS EVIL!
PAIL! – pool fail!
HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
That is so damn funny!!!
That’s true!! I used to work on a school and they had that pool, and, compared to the box, was extremely small. Only kids that were 5 years could use the slide!
How did you get on top of the school? Was there a ladder?
And a tractor?
Possibly a ladder ON a tractor?
aww…i feel really bad for those kids…. D:
Yeah I know.
You know, I have to challenge the presence of a rational mind of someone who complains that a swimming pool is smaller in perspective than the picture of it on THE BOX. Always avoid wine and swimming pools that come in boxes.
Splish splash I was taking a bath on a Saturday night…
I love the sad face with the arrow pointing to the kids.
DID U NOTICE guys!
THAT PIC SHOW US THE RACISM!!!!!
why the white kids are happy and the black ones are sad! woaaahhHHH
Whether this pic is altered or not, the looks on those kids’ faces… so sad!
reality’s a bitch
Scale fail!
that was too sad
Why are those children so big?
I stumbled across the very same Banzai kit at the supermarket today (Ontario Canada). It’s for real!!! They were liquidating them for 12.47$ – buy them while you can!!!
You could tie them to it, and then tie it to the top of a car. That could be fun.
I feel sorry for those kids…
Oh! ami me pasó lo mismo con una caja de condoneS!
SUper funny lol, it reminds me family guy
Wee!
i thimk they make one gaint one for the pic one the box…..that or its photoshopped
Wow you were actually able to get the hoop to stand up? Ours wouldn’t even do that. That was the worst $30 I ever spent!!!!
its an illusion, the guy in both pics is about the size as the hoop, it just looks smaller in the “real” one
Classic
NICEEE
wow arent you a little late to be getting in on the conversation
Giant children fail!
Sounds like a class action law suit.
My MIL bought this product. She failed.
And they tell us the good things are outside the box
that makes me so mad, my sister got one of those for her birthday and it was so lame
By the trajectory of the basketball, it’s going to overshoot the basket a lot.
rofl. always trying to rip the white man off…man.
Poor kid, hahahahaha!! SCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMELS
The people on the box must be real small.
Sue them.
Using midgets in commercials is cheap.
Atleast the basket is the right size.
LOL i saw this picture yesterday and see the actual water park today its so funny!!
I’ve come to a conclusion; The children in the first picture are the children of the Borrowers.
