So just how stupid are some people?
 

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?)

:1orglaugh Good ones...
On a child's Superman costume -- "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly

:1orglaugh

noone is stupider than us at stupidcash!

:1orglaugh

LOL nice ones :1orglaugh

too many people lack common sense..one of my pet peeves:glugglug

If Dove is 99% pure.. what is it exactly? What pure substance?

It's 99% dove, of course ;)

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?)

Swedes have large genitals... :winkwink:

:1orglaugh I love reading things like that

Those sound stupid, but the fact is, too many people are stupid. Sometimes I wonder how they dress themselves in the morning. Companies place stupid warnings to cover their ass when a moron does something stupid and blames them.

I love reading these things...Its even funnier when ya find one yourself. :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I've actually seen several of these first-hand, like the Dial soap one, and the Swanson's one.


I can't help but think of the dumb fuckups who would misuse a product in some idiotic way and then sue the company (and win) because there wasn't something obvious and retarded written on the packaging.

Yeah the most fucked up thing is that sometimes they actually win. :2 cents:

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

That one has always confused me.

Funny thing about common sense.... it ain't that common.

...this being GFY, I would have to say: "As opposed to inserting them in your ass, taking photos and posting them on GFY".

:2 cents:
