Some examples of why the human race has probably evolved as far as possible. These are actual instruction labels on consumer goods...
On Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping. (Gee, 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 Swann frozen dinners: Serving suggestion: Defrost. (But it's 'just' a suggestion!)
On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert: (printed on bottom of the box) Do not turn upside down. (Too late! you lose!)
On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: Product will be hot after heating. (Are you sure? Let's experiment.)
On packaging for a Rowenta iron: Do not iron clothes on body. (But wouldn't that save more time?) (Whose body?)
On Boot's Children's cough medicine: Do not drive car or operate machinery. (We could do a lot to reduce the construction accidents if we just kept those 5 year olds off those fork lifts.)
On Nytol sleep aid: Warning: may cause drowsiness. (One would hope!)
On a Korean kitchen knife: Warning: keep out of children. (hmm...something must have gotten lost in the translation...)
On a string of Christmas lights: For indoor or outdoor use only. (As opposed to use in outer space.)
On a food processor: Not to be used for the other use. (Now I'm curious.)
On Sainsbury's peanuts: Warning: contains nuts. (but no peas?)
On an American Airlines packet of nuts: Instructions: open packet, eat nuts. (somebody got paid big bucks to write this one...)
On a Swedish chainsaw: Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands. (Raise your hand if you've tried this...)
On a child's Superman costume: Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly. (Oh go ahead! That's right, destroy a universal childhood belief.)

ROFL!!! I've seen some of those and some other ones.
One day my dh and I were out shopping and saw on a soda bottle: Warning, may cause cancer if you consume it.... So why the heck are they selling it?
You have one of the best blogs that I have ever read. I have seen some of these before, but the way you 'tell' them, and the pictures that you post, make them hysterical.
I'm going to link you on my favorites so that I can keep coming back to read this.
I would love to meet you. I bet you are hysterical in person too.
OMFG. Carol you are a total riot. Where did you find this...I have never heard these before. Those are super funny. Thanks for sharing them.

I absolutely loved these they are all so Ironic. What really made me laugh is the thought that there that actually needs certain warnings and instructions.
Thanks for the laugh I needed it.

These were so hilarious and what really made me laugh was thinking of the people that actually might need those warnings and or instructions.
Thanks for sharing
