Are We, The Consumer, Really This Stupid?

Kinda corny, but I got a kick out of it.

 

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."

(...was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

LOL, there are A LOT of stupid people out there. The reason why for all the stupid warning is when some stupid person does iron his clothes while they are on and burns the crap out of himself and sues the company saying there wasn't a warning.
