Instruction Labels!!


I remember looking at an instruction label the other day, when I was cooking. I can't remember the actual product but I remember the label! It said "WARNING: PRODUCT HOT AFTER HEATING." I taught to myself no way if you heat something does it not make it cold! After double checking the label to ensure I wasn't seeing anything I realised that this was an actual serious label so I decided to go the Internet and check out if there were many more stupid Instruction labels and suprise suprise I found quite a few at http://www.funny.co.uk/stuff/art_172-2455-Actual-Label-Instructions.html

Here are a few:


On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert:


Printed on bottom of the box, do not turn upside down.(Too late! you lose!)




On packaging for a Rowenta iron:Do not iron clothes on body.(But wouldn't that save more time?)(Whose body?)



On Boot's Children's cough medicine:Do not drive car or operate machinery.(We could do a lot to reduce the construction accidents if we just kept those 5 year olds off those fork lifts.)



On Nytol sleep aid:Warning: may cause drowsiness.(One would hope!)



On a Korean kitchen knife:Warning: keep out of children.(hmm...something must have gotten lost in the translation...)



On a string of Christmas lights:For indoor or outdoor use only.(As opposed to use in outer space.)



On a food processor:Not to be used for the other use.(Now I'm curious.)



On Sainsbury's peanuts:Warning: contains nuts.(but no peas?)



On an American Airlines packet of nuts:Instructions: open packet, eat nuts.(somebody got paid big bucks to write this one...)



On a Swedish chainsaw:Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands.(Raise your hand if you've tried this..)



On a child's Superman costume:Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.(Oh go ahead! That's right, destroy a universal childhood belief.)
