Are People That Stupid?

 Another e-mail I have received today ... This one contains a few of those instructions that you can't actually appear on packaging ...

In Honour 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 Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) --
'Do not turn upside down.'
(well...duh, a bit late, huh!)


=======================
On Sainsbury's peanuts --
'Warning: contains nuts.'
(talk about a news flash)
 
=======================
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 Marks &Spencer Bread Pudding --
'Product will be hot after heating.'
(...and you thought????...)
 
=======================
 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 packaging for a Rowenta iron --
'Do not iron clothes on body.'
(but wouldn't this save me time?)



=======================
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 an American Airlines packet of nuts --
'Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts.'
(Step 3: ?)



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


=======================
