To be fair, I looked at the picture before reading the headline and thought, "water slides!" So, maybe they wanted it to be obvious that they weren't what they looked like?
Because of the sign at the door, 'Republican lawmakers have decreed that all cute boys must wear tight swim trunks, oh, and be photographed, for 'security' reasons!'... /s?
Most of the cities are quite blue, but the countryside is pure red. When I lived there they were single-issue anti-abortion voters, now who knows what sort of MAGA nonsense they're smoking.
Because the first news article just called then slides so naturally everyone thought there was water. So they all showed up in swimwear and this picture of them being sad was taken and used for a new article that they knew would be made fun of because of the ‘unnecessary’ inclusion of the word waterless that was, in fact, necessary.

My thoughts exactly. Just "slides" may have caused people to assume it's water slides.

Every slide comes with an estimated 9% chance to end up in the Backrooms.

But... if the slides are waterless.... why are the kids in their trunks?

nobody said the slides were dry, just that it was waterless
