Given FRs vast knowledge base, these have probably been posted a million times. But if I have brought a smile to just one life . . . sniff . . . it was worth it.

Have a great weekend . . .

Please ping your cat lovers (except me) . . . they need Friday humor also.

Why did kamikaze pilots wear helmets?

These warning labels are very necessary for the average Democrat voter (at least those who are alive, at least).

As proof, I refer you to the Florida ballot fiasco.

I've been in the shower here for some time. The label on the Shampoo says "Apply, Rinse, Repeat".

Why is the word "little" twice as big as the word "big"?

Galagher: Why don't they make a butt flavored cat food?

Steven Wright: Why is the alphabet in that order? Is it because of the song:

Flurry: If I was supposed to be funny, I'd be a damn comedian.

Why do you park in a driveway but drive on a parkway?

On a can of mace: "Warning Eye Irritant"
Why does sour cream have an expiration date ?
Why do we have a white sale on Lincolns birthday ?
Why is easy listening music so hard to listen to ?

Question for FReepers:

I've noticed, as in the title of this thread, that many of you are using the word 'series'? What's up with that? Is it some play on the word 'Serious'?

product manufacturers think we're stupid

They don't necessarily think the user is stupid. They think the jury is stupid.

...and the warning on a paint can, "Do not Ingest!"

[Clean_Sweep]

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

You never know, someone might want to use them in their swiming pool for under water lights.

[Big Mack]

The reason for these warnings is because 99.9% of all lawyers give the rest a bad name. I came to realize this when I put one of those cardboard windshield covers used to keep the heat out ofyour car in the summer. Printed on the back(facing into the car) printed in very large letters "Remove before driving." Nuf said.

[Billthedrill]

On a Swedish chainsaw: "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."

You must admit, it's very good advice.

Thanks

Some of my favorites are the car comercials. The "porche SUV" comercials stands out in my mind. Its the one where a guy is driving a RV get ups from driving, while on the road, to check out the porche SUV from the rear bedroom window of the RV, and then runs back to the driver seat to check out the porche SUV again as it passes him on the road. In little white letters at the bottom of the screan is this message: "Do not try this in your recreational vehicle"

HA!

What did Foo Man Chew?

What! Are you doing?

product manufacturers think we're stupid

Unfortunately, in some cases they are right. There are a boat load of sue happy idiots in this country that have generated these warning labels. On the plus side, I get a good snicker when I see a stroller with a label advising not to fold it up while the child is still in it.

Here's my favorite sue happy idoit story:

In the late 80's a woman bought a crock pot. The crock pot had a label saying it was submersible. What does that mean? It means you can unplug it an wash it in a sink full of water.

The woman thought it meant that she could use the crock pot to keep her bath water warm. She plugged it in got in the bath and got the ever loving sh!# shocked out of her.

Through a cruel twist of fate she survived to sue Dow-Corning and WON. sigh.

I really do beleive that a company should not be held responsible for a person's sheer stupidity.
