Slinky Nonsense

I got a Slinky for Christmas.  Here are some of the things the box said:

"Please remove all packaging material before giving the product to a child." 

It is a square cardboard box for God's sake!  A five-year-old can handle this.

"To play with Slinky in hands"
"Hold end coils of Original Slinky with both hands.  Now raise and lower each hand in a rhythmic motion."  And there is this:  "Retain packaging for future reference."


Some high-quality cautions:  "Caution: Do not use in moving vehicle.  Do not throw coils out any window.  Keep away from face and eyes."
