A Collection of Really Dumb Warning Labels

Published by Nattyb at 11:45 am under Oddly Enough

Warning Label

When manufacturers of certain products need to pass specifications to get their products on the market, one of the requirements is always to put a warning label on the package.  Some things might be dangerous and they can’t be liable if a person sues them for a ridiculous thing they missed.

But sometimes these manufacturers go a little overboard with their labels.  Either that or people out there are so dumb that they actually have to be warned about ridiculous stuff with some of these products.

I’m gonna go with the manufacturers on this one because I think people are just way too stupid.

    We can thank our litigious society for most of these warning labels.

    most of these warnings are probably the result of someone stupid enough to perform the restricted action first. for example, someone was probably dumb enough to assume it was safe to put A SCREWDRIVER IN YOUR PENIS, and got himself injured. that same guy probably sued or tried to sue the manufacturer, and now they’re stuck putting this ridiculous warning label on their product.

    I’m guessing the lottery ticket is probably thermal transfer paper. So, if it got wrinkled in your pocket and you decided to flatten it with an iron, you’d get a big black smear and blow your chances of cashing it….. just a hunch, I don’t know for sure. Somebody probably did that.

    If you get suppositories from the doctor the box will have a warning label telling you that they are for oral use only!
