Blessed are the cracked:for it is they who let in the light!

In Honour of Stupid People . . .

In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.

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 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 bulldozers.)

On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness."(...I'm taking this because???....)

On most brands of Christmas lights –
"For indoor or outdoor use only."(as opposed to what?)

On an American Airlines packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts."(Step 3: say what?)
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 ..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)
