I know this is completly off-topic of arcade game and not realated in any way, shape or form but...
Did you ever notice that on Armorall products it states "Not for personal cleansing." I sorta understand why they chose to put "caution: HOT" on coffee :-\ but if you are stupid enough to use Armorall on your body... I just don't know what to say about a person that stupid.
-
I say they should take all the obvious safety warnings of ALL packages and reduce the surplus population of morons.
-
My favorite "idiot warning" is on Blistex. NOT FOR USE IN EYES.
-
I do believe that every obvious (to us) warning message that is put on products resulted from some fool doing just that. And suing over it.
-
I'm not the type to bath myself in Armorall. But I do put it in my coffee every morning. Gives it a nice kick. ;)
-
Sorry, that warning is my fault. Its just that it makes me so shiny I couldn't help it! Plus, now I don't crack from the sun. ;D

Here are some more (http://www.joe-ks.com/archives_jan2004/Weird_Warnings.htm)
Some people. I am with you on the "Thinning the heard". On the radio this morning they talked about a woman on cops that said she had 2 kids, a 4 year old and a 6 month-year old. How do you have a 6 month-year old? We need to start a new campain.
THIN THE HEARD!

In Australia, someone ried to sue Cadbury because they found their chocolate frog was upside down in the packet, unlike the picture on the packet.
-
well you should read the stuff on a box of poptarts! you know they come in the box, and in the little silver packaging? well on it somewhere, i think its on the box itself, it says to "remove outer packaging before placing in toaster"!!! geez.

A sort of related subject:
Remember a toy you would get in cereal boxes? It was really a racket ball cut in half. You would put it round end up on a flat surface, push down on the top to create a suction. It would eventually 'pop' and the thing jumped into the air.
A friend of mine was a lawyer for Quaker Oats. They stopped putting it into boxes because an 18 year old put it over his eye. No permanent damage, but my friend saw the pictures, he said it was like the kid got a hickey on his eye. Quaker was afraid if an 18 old was dumb enough to try it, image what would happen if a 5 year old with weaker eye sockets would try it.
If we keep protecting the dumb Darwin's theory wont work, and we'll end up with a world of morons.

Check this one out
If you have an iron in the house and still have the manual, read the safety instructions.....especially the part that says do not iron clothes while on your body! ::)
-
Good thing my hair dryer has a tag instructing me not to use it while bathing. Not only because of the slight danger of electrocution, but definately to prevent one from creating a paradox.
-
I can see it now. One day (may already happened) there will be a warning sign in restaurants " Food must be chewed first before swallowing" :P
-
I noticed that the instructions on a frozen pizza reminded me to both remove the plastic before I put it in the oven, and not to eat it while it was still frozen. Man I'm glad they're looking out for me.
A quick glance across my desk reveals WARNING: X-Acto blades are extremely sharp and I should also not put superglue in my eyes.

Funny you say that... I actually know someone who did that! She has a scar righ above her clavicle.
And to think, I wanted her to be the mother of my children! Don't get me wrong, I still want to *(#$ her, I just would rather not mix the stupid gene into my offspring.

maybe a warning sign on COKE
"Warning this COKE is for drinking and not for snorting" ::)
