Shouldn't this be in the Fail thread or a Darwin Thread?

It's made of WIN because it's still there on the LIDL website even after their web stats must have hit the roof! There's no Darwin award because that's a posthumous award, and I really hope there's no babies actually getting this in their Christmas stockings just yet. That would be crazy; it's barely half way through November!

Yes but it could be a potential Darwin. So what inappropriate gift ideas will Lidl think of next?

Selling circular saw blades to kids, eh? Reminds me of the time, about twenty years ago, that I bought my nephews a jigsaw.
