In case you need further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity,
here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.
- On Sears Hairdryer: "Do not use while sleeping." (Gee, 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." (Evidently, 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 suggestions: Defrost." (But it's just a suggestion.)
- On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on the bottom of the box): Do not turn upside down." (Uhoh, too late!)
- On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after heating." (As night follows day...)
- On packaging for a Rowenta iron: "Do not iron clothes on body." (But wouldn't this save even more time?)
- On Boot's Children's 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 five year olds with head colds off those forklifts.)
- On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (One can only hope.)
- On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor and outdoor use only." (As opposed to what?)
- On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use." (I gotta admit, I'm curious.)
- On Sainsbury's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts." (NEWS FLASH)
- On an american airlines packet of nuts: "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts." (Step 3: 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 chain saw: "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals." (Was there a chance of this happening somewhere?)
GOOD GRIEF!
