Have you ever read stupid things on packages of stuff, here's mine

On a box of blue hair dye: 'WARNING! May die hair blue' (erm...thats the idea)

On a tesco Tiramisu dessery (Printed on bottom of the box): Do not turn upside down (too bad, you lose!)

They used to have on children's tylenol: do not operate heavy machinery. wtf?

On a string of Christmas lights:'For indoor or outdoor use only'.(As opposed to use in outer space.)

On Sainsbury's peanuts:'Warning: contains nuts'.
(but no peas?)



On a Swedish chainsaw:'Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands'.
(Raise your hand if you've tried this...)

They don't put it on hair dryers any more, but it used to say, "Don't use while sleeping"....can't believe they had to put that on there! LOL

i think they should take all of these "Safety labels" off, and just let the stupid people slowly vanish from the population...ph34r.gif

In a hammer: Be Careful: do not use this hammer to hit any solid object.

what's the point then? blink.gif

In a lighter: WARNING: flame might cause fire.

In a insect spray from new zealand: this product wasn't tested on animals.

In a korean kitchen knife: keep out of children.
laugh.gif

In a japanese food processor: not to be used for another use.
huh.gif

In chinese christmas lights: only use in or outside the house.

In a Dial soap bar: use like a normal soap.

On a package of animal crackers: No animals were hurt during the manufacturing of this product.

On a hair dryer: Do not use in shower

On a container of underarm deodorant: Do not spray in eyes

On a battery: May explode of leak

On a personal defence pepper spray: May irritate eyes

I agree with justcallmefox, just let the stupid people die.

You said: may explode of leak but in the image I read: may explore or leak, wich is pretty stupid anyway...

Am I the only one that reads it like that?

OMG!!

JohnnyBoyC, that pepper spray warning is just too freakin' funny!!! rofl.gif rofl.gif I think that this one takes the prize!!! Well, DUH!!! I'll just spray my attacker with baby shampoo, cause I wouldn't want his eyes to sting. rolleyes.gif

I also love the warnings on coffee you get at fast food places & such. "Hot coffee may be hot". Nah!! I know that they put them on there cause they got sued, but wouldn't people sue if their coffee was just kinda warm? hmm.gif

I also love the drug warning on drugs like Zoloft. May cause suicidal tendencies or depressive thoughts. Excuse me?!!! I already have those!! Now, why did my dr. prescribe it to help control this? blink.gif

On a condom wrapper: For single use only. dontgetit.gif No, wash it out & use it again, it'll be fine. tongue.gif

And remember Olestra (sp)? May cause anal leakage. Great marketing idea, huh?

Actually i think this is in reference to it being tested on rabbits etc, misquitoes are insects not animals. i'm not trying to sound like a party-pooper these are quite funny! laugh.gif
