Seriously..?

So I've seen some ridiculous labels on consumer products lately...some made me laugh so I though I would share them...read on

If it proves one thing...some people in this world are succumbing to stupidity or thinking we're all stupid

On a hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.
yes because that's totally when I have the time

On a bag of chips -- You could win! No purchase necessary.
so they're saying stealing's ok?

On a bar of Dial Soap -- "Directions: use like regular soap."
Cause apparently we don't know how to use regular soap in the first place. I hope that's not true because that is just sad.

On some frozens -- "serving suggestions: defrost."
They did say it was just a suggestion so we don't have to defrost.

On a Dessert -- "Do not turn upside-down."
Opps well it's a bit late for that now, isn't it? Honestly whoever thought of that was a real genius.

On Bread pudding -- "product will be hot after heating."
well isn't that the point..?

On an Iron -- "Do not iron clothes on body."
It would be so much easier...

On a child cough medicine -- "do not drive or operate machinery after taking medication."
Cause children seriously drive and/or operate machinery.

On a sleep aid -- "warning: may cause drowsiness."
Okay, isn't that the point of SLEEP MEDICINE!!

On most brands of Christmas lights -- "For indoor or outdoor use only."
Right help me out on this one. It just plain confusing. As opposed to what?

On a food processor -- "Not to be used for the other use."
The other use would be...?

On peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts."
Okay, if you didn't know that then seriously?

On a packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts."
Cause people really don't know how to eat nuts. So what would the third step be? Enjoy? Oh oh I got it.

On a chainsaw -- "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."
God help me, has there been a lot of that happening somewhere?

That's all....some of those made me laugh Did any make anyone else laugh?
Some people....

on that note.............

I think that once a company gets sued the put on a silly warning label so the lawyers can't get them again.

A few in my house:

On a jar of peanut butter: Warning contains peanuts.
No spit, Sherlock! That's why I bought it!!

On a canine perfume spray: Avoid contact with eyes or mucous membranes
... Why would I spray dog perfume on my mucous membranes? What mucous membrane can I even access?

On Dog Toothpaste: Not fit for human consumption
Aww man!! What am I supposed to eat for dinner now??

On a candle: Keep away from things that catch fire easily
... Really? Are we that dumb these days?

This one is puzzling...

On my deoderant: Ask a doctor before use if you have kidney disease.
That's oddly specific... Should I be worried about my kidneys??

I feel like I need to show proof of that one:

I like how it says apply to underarms only. As if you were going to apply it to your forehead or something...

I found a few more today:

On the dog's shampoo -- The contents of this bottle should not be fed to fish.
Well I don't have fish...and even if I did why would I?

On normal shampoo -- For hair use only, not eyes.
Darn...I was totally going to wash my eyes with it....

On a Stroller -- Remove infant before folding into storage
Yes I would so leave a baby in it....

Child's playhouse -- this is not a toy
Then what is it...a real house?

King size bed mattress -- warning: Do not attempt to swallow
Okay, I died reading this one, who would really swallow it!? A fat guy thinking it's a giant sugar doughnut? Probably still not.

Firecrackers -- Do not light while holding in mouth
Uh...okay then?

Batteries -- Do not swallow. C or D batteries may cause choking.
What about A batteries, are those edible then? Okay, there's my dinner!

Hardware drill -- Not to be used for dental uses
Who would use it for teeth? Like seriously!

Quick packaged dinner -- Suggestion: Remove plastic before eating
Alright, No way! I was going to eat it with plastic...it tastes so much better.

Holy! How stupid do they think we are?

Keep them coming

Pmsl

Phew.....good job they put these warnings on things or we'd all be in BIG trouble we'd have to actually use a bit of common sense

I found some more.....

On a Bathroom heater -- Not to be used in bathrooms
Where do you use them then...?

On a can of pepper spray -- Do not spray in your own eyes
Wasn't planning on it...

On a garden rock set -- eating rocks may lead to broken teeth, do not put them in mouth
really!? I never knew that....!

On a bag of our grapes -- please store in cold section of refrigerator
Where else would I put them, the microwave? And the whole fridge is cold!

On the TV remote -- not dishwasher safe
And I would put it in the dishwasher because....?

On air freshener -- for experienced and trained personnel only
You really need to be trained to spray stuff from a bottle?

On a hand-held massager -- Do not use while sleeping or unconscious
Why would someone need a massage if they're unconscious? I would be more concerned about myself in general!

do not try to swallow a king size mattress.. man that is a crack up !!!!!

They make me cry with laughter

these are fantastic! I remember when the TV show ROVE used to do a "What The?" segment where people sent in these sorts of things, my friend and I found a few good ones that I still remember because we wanted to send them in.

on the packaging of a GLASS chopping board
"do not throw against the ground forcibly"
and
"if heated up, may be used as a cusion"

blew my mind!!!

Brilliant!
