WASHINGTON -

Millions of Chinese-made toys have been pulled from shelves in North America and Australia after scientists found they contain a chemical that converts into a powerful date rape drug when ingested. Two children in the U.S. and three in Australia were hospitalized after swallowing the beads.

With only seven weeks until Christmas, the recall is yet another blow to the toy industry - already bruised by a slew of recalls this past summer...

Imagine that, a dangerous toy coming from China. I hear those Aqua Dot things are pretty cool though. If only people taught their kids not to eat them.

I try to minimize my interactions with humans in the interest of not killing them.

Oh, okay, I missed it when I skimmed through the first time.

"They can be arranged into designs and fused together when sprayed with water."

That's lame I thought it was going to do something cool.

You can make them into spikes and kill people with them.

Lulz it can be used as a powerful date rape drug? Does this mean I can just go buy some aqua dots instead of using Rupees?

Seis will you take a break from your C++ long enough to type a code-free reply? Just because my life revolves around cute kittens doesn't mean I have to put their asses at the end of each of my post.

I still want your children though. :D
