I n 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.
(Oh darn! 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?)
