Objet : IN HONOR 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 a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.

(Damn, 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?)

Technically, I believe that peanuts are not nuts, they grow under the ground, so I think that makes them some type of tuber - much like potatoes are not vegetables.

So why is tomato in normal salad?

A "fruit" is any fleshy material covering a seed or seeds.

 

Hmmm, makes you think (if your bored at work that is).....

LOL

 

What about a strawberry? The seeds are on the outside ie not covered ;)

I dont fecking know... lol.

..and I was just thinking that genitals would do quite a good job of stopping a chainsaw

This also reminds me of the famous case of the guy who crashed his brand new Winnebago by putting it onto 'auto-pilot' on the Freeway and then went into the back to make himself a coffee.

 

All Winnebago's now have a sticker on the dashboard saying you have to stay at the wheel, when the vehicle is in motion, even when auto pilot mode is engaged!

:eek: WOW! Nigel - your memory goes back 9 posts! :rofl:
