In case you needed further proof that
the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions
on consumer goods.
On a Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping.
(And 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 how??)
On some Swanson frozen dinners: "Serving suggestion: Defrost."
(But, it's "just" a suggestion.)
On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): "Do not turn
upside down."
(Well...duh, a bit late, huh!)
On Marks &Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after
heating."
(...and you thought...??)
On packaging for a Rowenta iron: "Do not iron clothes on body."
(But wouldn't this save me more time?)
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.)
On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(And...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 Sainsbury's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts."
(Talk about a news flash.)
On an American Airlines packet of nuts: "Instructions: Open packet,
eat nuts."
(Step 3: Maybe, uh...fly Delta?)
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?)
Now that you've smiled at least once, it's your turn to spread the stupidity
and send this to someone you want to bring a smile to (maybe even chuckle)...in
other words send it to everyone. We all need to smile every once in a while.
