Why do they put death warnings on deoderant? Isn't that encouraging
suicide? I have one here that says "solvent abuse can kill instantly".
Well thanks for letting me know, I'll be sure to use that method now
you've told me about it....
Thinking of warnings, I've had a lawn mower with a warning sticker saying
don't put your hands and feet under the deck while it's running. Maybe
somebody thinks it'll just clean your finger and toe nails.
I've seen stepladders with warnings about not using the top 'step' to step
on. I had a miniature working cannon with a warning sticker which stated
"Do not look into barrel of cannon while firing".
That last one is the one that really started me thinking about stupid
warnings on things.
Our sharks and crocodiles have all been fitted with big signs
saying 'this animal can kill you' Waterproof signs of course.
Reading the warnings for laptop batteries it sounded more like a handy
tool for an assassin's toolbox -- a real go-to item.
