If this plastic fiddle-toy dingus is a “concern,” these people are going to shit absolute brick if they see what I’ve got in my desk drawer.
Seriously, the hand-wringing over something like this is just sheer whacking off by people whose lives are so cushy they don’t actually have anything legitimate to complain about.
The fact that they find this concerning actually is indicative of a society where weapons aren’t normalized or frequent.
Yes, being scared by carrot toys is ridiculous. But I’d rather live in that community than the Walmart pistol vending machine one.
Yeah at first I thought about how I had a toy army knife growing up, then realized that’s a very American toy to have lmao. I do think though that making this a big deal is just adding to its popularity. Kids only think it’s cooler since their parents are freaking out.
What about finger guns? Like using your index finger and thumb as a gun. That’s violent behaviour.
Remember, kids, if someone shows up to school with a paper knife, run, hide, fight in that order.
You just need to find a good guy with scissors.
Instructions unclear. Who am I supposed to fight while I’m hiding?
The thoughts in your head.
… what.
Parents everywhere love freaking out over the most mundane shit.
Tbf my yak bak was probably pretty annoying to my parents
I got very little respect for the culture of south korea.
Looks like they are consumerists to their core.
“We should also out law words. Because words can hurt peoples feelings.”
This is satire
I don’t know what type of carrots they have, but those do not look like carrots that I have.
Hah. I was going to say the same thing.
Upvoting is better than commenting “I agree!”
i agree!
lol
This
Lmao I’ve only seen this toy in Korean memes where people print them super sized and instead of the blade it has a phone holder. I had no idea it was supposed to be a knife blade.
That is to say, the Korean youth already has the ridicule of this story covered.
Our daughter has two of them, but one of them has a blinking led which is so annoying in the car OMG I hate it.
For the uninitiated it’s literally made of paper.
The article says
The plastic knife toy, which is shaped like a carrot, is made of fluorescent materials and available in different colours.
Is there more to it than that?
anyone got a link to the file to print out? looks neat

There are other versions with no pins required. But I found the pin ones hold up better in pla.
I’ll trade our problems for South Korea’s problems.
Like an unhinged, impoverished dictatorship with nukes within artillery range of your capital?
Will at least their unhinged dictator isn’t running the capital like we’ve experienced recently.
I think I must have misunderstood you - you can’t mean you’d rather have Kim Jong Un running the country than Biden?
It was poorly worded, but I was referring to Trump.
whgo is our/ :3
