We don’t know if “magnet hazard” is even an official phrase, but we’re going with it.

A magnetic dart board sold at Family Dollar stores between 2002 and 2008 for, uh, $1 is being recalled because the magnets in the darts can come loose. If the magnets are swallowed, it poses a danger because they can attract each other and cause potentially fatal intestinal perforations or blockages. We thought that only applied to those high powered magnets in things like Magnetix toys, but hey, we’re not here to start questioning the CPSC.

The dart boards can be returned to the manufacturer, Henry Gordy International Inc., by mailing them to 809A Market Street, Hermann, MO 65041. They will provide a full refund plus tax and shipping costs. Or, you know, if you have things to do and can’t really be dealing with all that nonsense just to get back a buck, toss it.
