LuLu Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 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 bag of Fritos: You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside. On a bar of Dial soap: Directions: Use like regular soap. On a child's superman costume: Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly. On a Japanese food processor: Not to be used for the other use. On a Korean kitchen knife: Warning keep out of children. On a string of Chinese-made Christmas lights: For indoor or outdoor use only. On a Swedish chain saw: Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals. On an American Airlines packet of nuts: Instructions: open packet, eat nuts. On Boot's Children's cough medicine: Do not drive car or operate machinery. On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: Product will be hot after heating. On Nytol sleep aid: Warning: may cause drowsiness. On packaging for a Rowenta iron: Do not iron clothes on body. On Sainsbury's peanuts: Warning: contains nuts. On Sears hair dryer: Do not use while sleeping. On some Swann frozen dinners: Serving suggestion: Defrost. On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert: Do not turn upside down. (printed on bottom of the box) I'm here. What are your other two wishes?

LuLu Posted August 1, 2007 Author Share Posted August 1, 2007 LOL yeah. It's amazing how they basically have to spell everything out now.

LuLu Posted August 2, 2007 Author Share Posted August 2, 2007 LOL! Well of course, ANYONES first instinct when wanting to stop a chainsaw is to use their no-no parts.
