Label

I got this funny email. Hope it makes you smile too!

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.

1. On a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.(That's the only time I have to work on my hair.)
2.On a bag of Fritos -- You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.(the shoplifter special?)
3. On a bar of Dial soap -- "Directions: Use like regular soap."(and that would be???....)
4. On some Swanson frozen dinners -- "Serving suggestion: Defrost."(but, it's just a suggestion.)
5. On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) -- "Do not turn upside down."(well...duh, a bit late, huh!)
6. On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding -- "Product will be hot after heating."(...and you thought????...)
7. On packaging for a Rowenta iron -- "Do not iron clothes on body."(but wouldn't this save me time?)
8. 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.)
9. On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness."(...I'm taking this because???....)
10. On most brands of Christmas lights -- "For indoor or outdoor use only."(as opposed to what?)
11. 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.)
12. On Sainsbury's peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts."(talk about a news flash)
13. On an American Airlines packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts."(Step 3: say what?)
14. 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.)
15. 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?)

Some people, huh?
