Warnings

Ok, so this may have already made the rounds of the intertubes, but I have never seen it, so in my world neither have you (yes, you - you know who you are... :-)

Anyway, these are amusing and gave me a laugh on a night when I am still at work at 6:30. bah
(which by the way I'm not really complaining about. last night I emailed a friend who works at EA at 10:30pm - and he emailed me back!)


On a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.
(Darn, 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."
(Uhm...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."
(Wow, 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."
(OMG...was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)
