Warning Labels

[mikeandronda]

In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods. <br /><br />On a Sears hairdryer: "Do not use while sleeping." Gee that's the only time I have to work on my hair.) <br /><br />On a bag of Fritos: "You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside." (The shoplifter special) <br /><br />On a bar of Dial soap: "Directions: Use like regular soap." (And that would be how ...?) <br /><br />On some Swanson frozen dinners: "Serving suggestion: Defrost." (But its "just" a suggestion) <br /><br />On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): "Do not turn upside down." (Too late!) <br /><br />On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after heating." (As night follows day . . .) <br /><br />On packaging for a Rowenta iron: "Do not iron clothes on body." (But wouldn't this save me more time?) <br /><br />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 forklifts.) <br /><br />On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (One would hope.) <br /><br />On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use only." (As opposed to what?) <br /><br />On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use." (I gotta admit, I'm curious.) <br /><br />On Sainsbury's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts." (Talk about a news flash.) <br /><br />On an American Airlines packet of nuts: "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts." (Step 3: Fly Delta.) <br /><br />On a child's superman costume: "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly." (I don't blame the company. I blame parents for this one.)

Re: Warning Labels

It's sad isn't. <br /><br />Whats worse is that the people who caused these labels are now rich because of sueing the manufacturers for their own stupidity. <br /><br />3 more.<br /><br />Hair dryer, (this was on the Admirals) Do not use in the bathtub. <br /><br />On a Wawa coffee cup. "Contents Hot" like no Sh*t <br /><br />On a box of Amunition: "may cause injury or Death." Only if used by the idiot that drys their hair in the tub.

Re: Warning Labels

You know these labels are on there because some moron actually did it and got injured. There should just be one label for everything "USE COMMON SENSE WHEN USING THIS PRODUCT".

Re: Warning Labels

The labels are just a product for our "dumbed-down" society.<br /><br />Common sense is a trait that a lot of people don't have any more.<br /><br />Sad....<br /><br />H.

Re: Warning Labels

Re: Warning Labels

If we took all the warning labels off stuff it would help with the over population problems and create more jobs for us who are not morons........<br />If you need to read the warning labels on a ladder you probably shouldnt climb on one ect....ect....ect....

Re: Warning Labels

We all owe the lawyers a vote of thanks for such moronic labeling. At least if you ask me that is where it all boils down to.
