Why is it that when someone tells anda that there are over a billion stars in the universe, anda believe them, but if there is a 'wet paint' sign somewhere, anda have to touch it to make sure?
In case anda needed further proof that the human race is doomed to stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods:
1. On a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.
(Shoot, and that's the only time I have to work on my hair.)
2. On a bag of Fritos -- anda could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.
(the shoplifter special)?
3. On some Swanson Frozen dinners -- "Serving suggestion: Defrost."
(but, it's "just" a suggestion).
4. On Tesco's tiramisu Pencuci Mulut (printed on bottom) -- "Do not turn upside down."
(well...duh, a bit late, huh)!
5. On Marks & Spencer roti puding -- "Product will be hot after heating."
(...and anda thought??...)
6. On packaging for a Rowena iron -- "Do not iron clothes on body."
(but wouldn't this save me lebih time)?
7. On Boot's Children Cough Medicine -- "Do not drive a car atau 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.)
8. On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(and...I'm taking this because??...)
9. On most brands of Krismas lights -- "For indoor atau outdoor use only."
(as opposed to...what)?
10. On a Japanese Makanan processor -- "Not to be used for the other use."
(now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious)
11. On Sainsbury's Peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts."
(talk about a news flash)
12. On an American Airlines packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts."
(Step 3: maybe, ooh...fly Delta?)
13. On a child's Superman costume -- "Wearing of this pakaian does not enable anda to fly."
(I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)
14. On a Korean dapur knife-- "Warning: keep out of children."
(hmm..something must have gotten Lost in the translation..)
15. On a Swedish chainsaw -- "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands atau genitals."
(Oh my ..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)
