i didnt go to jail

[JavaDoodles]

voiceover is by a dude named Brimstone, he's really cool but i couldnt find his channel, i'll have to ask him if he has one

This is the equivalent of SpongeBob and Patrick thinking they stole a balloon on free balloon day….😂

Imagine the police showing up and telling you “Sir, you’re under arrest for ripping a mattress tag off, put your hands up”

[Canadian_Zac]

To let people know

Those do not remove tags are for the seller
THEY arent allowed to remove them
You can remove them
Its your mattress, you can burn it if you like, the law doesnt care what you do with your stuff unless to causes damage to other stuff

[elyssacorbaley]

This is EXACTLY how I tell stories! The drama, the unhinged cackling, the "I was either 11 or 14, thrre is no inbetween." 🤣😭

[freda]

I'm in my 60s and have never ripped off a mattress tag. Your fears were justified. 😂

He felt tough, powerful, even [Title Card]

[eeveelover]

As a child i saw those on chairs…and i was so scared i had a nightmare that some weird officials were beating me with the tag

[Gingersnap]

As a mom with 2 kiddos currently between 11-14, this checks out. Middle schoolers are caught between desperately wanting to feel independent, raging hormones & still needing momma to make it all better. You never know what version of them you're going to get. It's a trip 😅

"Eleven or maybe Fourteen." Not ten, twelve, or thirteen. Just eleven or fourteen.

“Except for by consumer, ” and you’ve officially consumed it, if it’s in your room ;)

[SiennaPineDew]

I love the thought of cops coming around in neighborhoods knocking on people’s doors and checking that they still have the tags on their mattresses lol

[benkellman]

Those tags are just so the consumer knows what's in the mattress, and that it's not filled with anything gross or dangerous. It's illegal for the seller to remove, not you once you own it

[callmealegend]

I used to stare at the tag on my mattress and think, “how would they know?” 😂😂🤣

[mLify]

They do put "except by consumer" on those things 😂

[HP_GalaxyWolf]

Bros always got the wildest stories but I love how good these animations are ❤❤❤❤

[Shysonot]

The bit in Llamas With Hats where he goes "I ripped the tag off a mattress" had lived rent free in my head for over 10 years

[SherryKent-os]

when i was like 5, i ripped off one of those tags, my dad, as a joke, said " u know thats illegal right?" and i pop back with "but it says right here that it's for the seller or maufacturer" and he's just like this kid's smort"

[roopkd]

LITERALLY ME AS A KID! Until I reread it as a teen and realized they meant that the sellers can’t take it off, but the consumer can 😂.
The background for why the tags were created is actually really interesting

Bold of you to post this online. Now they’re definitely gonna find you
