    In Order Of Stupidity...

    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. (Darn, 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?)

        Missed the other half: "Warning: May contain peanuts or peanut products"

          I once read the label from a baby stroller: "Warning! Remove baby before folding stroller."

          About that last one with the chain saw. I once bought a chain saw and worked all day with it to cut the branches off a big tree and then cut it off at the stump. I was so exhausted by the end of the day I took it back to the dealer to complain about how hard it was to use. He said, "Well--let's start it up and see what's wrong."

          I said, "Start it up?"
