Want some laughs? :D
These were actual LABELS on store products. How stupid do manufactureers are or do we live in a sue happy generation or what. Still an exellent laugh. Enjoy.
On a Sear's 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." (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." > > On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): > "Do not turn upside down." (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 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." (One would hope.) > > 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." (I gotta admit, I'm 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: 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 parents for this one.) > > On a Swedish chainsaw: > "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals." (Was there a lot of this happening somewhere? My Goodness! Are Swedes that much tougher than we are?) I got this off my Mom's e-mail. Hope it made you laugh as much as it did me. Sam

Notice that it doesn't say anything about using someone else to stop it.

No it's very possible that they meant "digitals" as in fingers and they simply didn't think of the correct word

This'ns my favorite:
On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (One would hope.) Or On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): "Do not turn upside down." (Too late!). LOLROFLMBO. You guys should have heard the computer stories that we got. One woman had a porblem with the foot generator on her computer. Turns out that"foot run genrator"was the MOUSE. And another guy had a problem with the dust protecter on the mouse. It wouldn't let him move it across the pad....no suprise as the "dust cover"was actually the wrapper the mouse came in. Sam

I just noticed this on the back of a little notebook that I have.
"Toto Bear: To To Bear has a simple mind that works in slow-motion. he is uncomplicated and lacks sophistication." And above it is a cute little picture of a white teddy bear watering a pot of flowers. It's a really cute notebook. ![]() |

I like the japenese food processor one. It leaves much to the imagination. Although it is hard to compete with the Swedish one. I think that the scariest thing is if you look at the lable to see what is actually inside of a food product. You can find a lot of surprising ingredients.

Re: Want some laughs? :D
On some Swanson frozen dinners:
"Serving suggestion: Defrost." Ohh..cause I always eat my meals frozen!! On packaging for a Rowenta iron: > "Do not iron clothes on body." How stupid would you wanna be!!! Do they really think that people do this???? 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.) LOL On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (Whats with the "may" cause drowsiness!!! Wouldn't we want one that "will" cause drowsiness??? On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use only." (cause I always put my Christmas lights....???) On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use." (What other use??) On Sainsbury's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts." (Well tie me up all call me Betty)
