I have dedicated this page to honour the art that is human stupidity in all its glory. Enjoy smile Here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods: (Oh dear, humans are doomed! Aliens will take over! Yippee!)
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 Sunsbury'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."
(I'm not even going to put a comment for this one!)
On PMS mediciation: "do not give to children under 3 years."
(What kid under the age of three has a period?)
