Joke of the week - Stupidity

Here is a good one from the same friend...




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.”
(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???....)
============================

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 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 bulldozers.)
===========================

On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(...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: say what?)
===========================

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 gosh.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)
