In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity:
1. On Sears hairdryer: "Do not use while sleeping."
(Gee, 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."
(Evidently, the shoplifter special)
3. On a bar of Dial soap: "Directions: Use like regular soap."
(And that would be how. . . ?)
4. On some Swanson frozen dinners: "Serving suggestions: Defrost."
(But it`s *just* a suggestion)
5. On Tesco`s Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom of box): "Do not turn upside down."
(Oops, too late!)
6. On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after
heating."
(As night follows the day . . . .)
7. On packaging for a Rowenta iron: "Do not iron clothes on body."
(But wouldn`t this save even more time?)
8. On Boot`s Children`s 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.)
9. On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(One would hope)
10. On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use
only."
(As opposed to what?)
11. On a Japanesefood processor: "Not to be used for the other use."
(I gotta admit, I`m curious.)
12. On Sainsbury`s peanuts: "Warning: Contains nuts."
(NEWSFLASH!!!)

I'll bet you that every product mentioned has had multiple lawsuits regarding the lack of these types of labels. Make note that anything made for human consumption has very strict guidlines on what can be said on a label and just to change one word takes a mountain of paperwork and thousands of dollars just to get it approved.

If you look on the back of the box for Sony products (headphones I know for sure) it says it will not cover any damage due to an Act Of God, so you know that someone, somwhere claimed god blew up his headphones.
