In Honor of Stupid People
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 Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.
(Damn, 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 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: 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."
(Oh my God...was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)


Now that you've smiled at least once, it's your turn to spread the stupidity and send this to someone you want to bring a smile to (maybe even chuckle)... in other words send it to everyone. We all need to smile every once in a while.

I saw this not to long ago, I e-mailed to to everyone I know. ;D

I’ll do you one better. I had a mini carabiner on my key chain. Carved into the long side of the 2 inch (if that) long carabiner:

“Not for climbing”

 ??? :-X ;D

Silica gel in a shoebox: "Do not eat."
Calamine lotion: "For external use only."

 ;D

I genuinely encountered this one, with a Gateway computer:

"Allow box to come to room temperature before opening."

On a slip of paper inside the box.

And of course, we can't forget "This drink may be hot" on the side of ever coffee cup, and the classic McDee's story behind it. ;D

Useful if you complain the coffee's cold as well, I guess: "we only said it may be hot".

In the doorway?  After all, you might trip over the cord.

Since peanuts aren't actually nuts, I guess this one is technically correct.

:D :D :D
