He's not mean at all. He's risking his own health, turning himself green, just to warn you not to touch what he's touching. Mr. Yuk is dying, and it's all to save us!
I remember when they first came out with Mr. Yuk, it was only here in Pittsburgh and it spread out from here. I remember getting them in school from "pre-first grade" (I was held back a year) up until 3rd grade or so, it was the 1972 - 1976 period. I remember one friend of mine put Mr. Yuk stickers all over his purple bike, it was an interesting looking combination. I have another friend with a black and green 1991 Saturn, it would make the perfect Mr. Yuk car.
Can you still get Mr. Yuk stickers? I remember that the cleaning supplies in my house as a kid had the Mr. Yuk stickers on them in the late 70's and early 80's. It might seem silly, but I think it was an effective way at keeping kids from drinking bleach.
@thatmuse76 I am currently in highschool, and we got them as first graders.
My younger sister never brought any home though.
It would probably be a good idea (if this were still a big deal) to make them part of household product labels do you didn't have to keep buying new stickers
Incidentally, they're also used as the desktop icon for the online MSDS catalog at my school. (MSDS stands for Material Safety Data Sheet; they catalog the dangers associated with chemicals used in science labs.)
When I started kindergarten in 1983, my teacher handed out sheets of Mr. Yuk stickers and told us to go home and place them on chemical bottles. I'm glad they didn't have this commercial where I lived. That would've given me NIGHTMARES!!!
So I take the time to edit this and put the commercial on here- Retrojunk takes it from me off here--- you take it from them and put it back here..... really freakin' pointless, don't you think? Can't stop shaking my head at how worthless that was to do- what were you thinking?
..."home is full of bad things that can hurt you very much" - I just can't imagine that kind of message being broadcast today. I'm pretty sure this Mr. Yuk was live here, actually
this is dumb to me it seems like it would make kids not ever touch that stuff thinking that its as danger as radioactive waste causing kids to dump it out of the bottles into the sink polutting the water supply
I like this Psa! I don't remember it, despite the fact that I'm a child of the 70's-but even now it scares me, which is what I like about it! It probably would have scared the crap out of me if I had seen it when I was little! I love ads like that! i love revisiting ads that once scared me, just to make them send chills down my spine again! It may have only been shown in certain areas of the country, which is probably why I don't remember it.
The reason it is on Retrojunk is because they took it from me who originally posted it on youtube well before you took it from them to put back here. I edited it together and put it out there first. Anyone who sees the timeframe will see that so don't post a notice for people to "quit bitchin'" because you DID rip it off from a source that took it from youtube to begin with and I told you this months ago. This is redundant and most everyone knows mine was here first.
Funny, this looks just like the one I uploaded like a year ago. I can tell- I did some editing to the song and video that is evident. Why upload someone else's video when it's already on youtube?
I was thinking that very same thing. Have you seen how many times the same "Dave Chappelle Sesame Street", "MAD TV Bird Flu" and "Angry Cat" videos have been posted? No wonder there's so much clutter on the internet!
