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

1. On Sears hairdryer: "Do not use while sleeping".
2. On a bag of Fritos: "You could be winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside".
3. On a bar of Dial soap: "Directions: Use like regular soap."
4. On some Swanson frozen dinners: "Serving suggestions: Defrost."
5. On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom of box): "Do not turn upside down."
6. On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after heating."
7. On packaging for a Rowenta iron: "Do not iron clothes on body."
8. On Boot's Children's Cough Medicine: "Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication."
9. On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness".
10. On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use only."
11. On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use."
12. On Sainsbury's peanuts: "Warning: Contains nuts."
13. On an American Airlines packet of nuts: "Instructions: open packet, eat nuts."

LOL! Doesn't everybody open the Fritos and put them back on the grocery shelf?

Wish I'd read the label.
