Humans are really, really stupid

In the last few years we have learnt one thing. Yes, you heard right, humans are stupid! Surely this is the only explanation for why have so many warnings on packaging. 'Health and Safety' is becoming more and more important and more and more annoying. In response to this, I have collated a list of the funniest, weirdest and most patronising warning labels:-

On a hair-dryer-Don't use while sleeping But how will I dry my hair in time for the morning?!

On an electric drill - This product is not intended for use as a dental drill 

In the manual for a microwave oven - Don't use for drying pets I think whoever this advice is directed at doesn't deserve a pet. Or life.

On a child-size Superman costume - Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly No, don't jump out of that window Timmy, I misread the label, noo....

On a washing machine - Do not put any person in this machine But who has the time to shower these days?!

On iPod shuffle packaging - Do not eat iPod shuffle An apple a day keeps the doctor away...oh wait

On a scooter - Warning! When used this product moves Ahh thats what the wheels are for...

On a bottle of dog pills - Take care when operating a car I think the term 'dogging' may have been misunderstood by the manufacturer

On a lottery ticket - Do not iron But how will I get these creases out!

and everyone's favourite...

On a packet of nuts - May contain nuts

  3. Thanks Rebecca! This list would be pretty much unlimited. Saying "may contain milk" make it seems like more of a gamble than a purchase! A dairy lottery ticket.
