Title: Warnings for the stoopid
Post by: cbs2 on 15 April 2008, 18:51:05
In  Honour of Stupid People . . .

In  case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed  through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on  consumer goods.

On  Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) --
"Do  not turn upside down."
(well...duh,  a bit late, huh!)

On  Sainsbury's peanuts --
"Warning:  contains nuts."
(talk  about a news flash)

On  Boot's Children Cough Medicine --
"Do  not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this  medication."
(We  could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if  we could just get those 5 year-olds with head-colds off those  bulldozers.)

On  Marks &Spencer Bread Pudding --
"Product  will be hot after heating."
(...and  you thought????...)
                
On  a Sears hairdryer --
Do  not use while sleeping.
       (That's the only time I have to work on my hair.)

On  a bag of Fritos --
You  could be a winner! No purchase necessary.
Details  inside.
(the shoplifter  special?)

On  a bar of Dial soap --
"Directions:  Use like regular soap."
(and  that would be???....)

On  some Swanson frozen dinners --
"Serving  suggestion: Defrost."
(but,  it's just a  suggestion.)

On  packaging for a Rowenta iron --
"Do  not iron clothes on body."
(but  wouldn't this save me time?)

 
 On  Nytol Sleep Aid --
"Warning:  May cause drowsiness."
(..I'm  taking this because???.....)

On  most brands of Christmas lights --
"For  indoor or outdoor use only."
(as  opposed to what?)

On  a Japanese food processor --
"Not  to be used for the other use."
(now,  somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)

On  an American Airlines packet of nuts --
"Instructions:  Open packet, eat nuts."
(Step  3: say what?)

On  a child's Superman costume --
"Wearing  of this garment does not enable you to fly."
(I  don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this  one.)

On  a Swedish chainsaw --
"Do  not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."
(Oh  my God..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)
