:lmao:

It doesn't mean you can't ride the escalator, just that you can't sue them if you set your neck :wink05:

There are just to many idiot-proof warnings around today~~

Plastic bags saying, "do not put head in bag" --why, most fun I have is when I drink alot, take a couple pain pills, then asphixiate myself till I vomit. Try it sometime . . . what a rush!!

Go to McDonalds, "Coffee is HOT"--Yah, our justice system helped this one along, and stemmed an epidemic of bogus lawsuits to date.

Sheesh,
with all these WARNINGS, how the HELL did I get here?? :wink05:

I agree Bouncer. I was just watching Breakfast at Tiffany's the other day and a ring was found in a box of Cracker Jack. I remember getting the coolest prizes out of Cracker Jack. Really cool stuff but now all you get are stickers.

I miss the rings and the magnifying glasses. What the hell happened? :Birthday_Balloons: Back then if you did by chance swallow something, all you had to do was just wait a day and you'd get your prize back.

I think I'll pop in my George Carlin "You are all diseased" DVD. It'll remind me of all the fun, dirty, dangerous stuff we used to eat and do and we survived. :Birthday_Song:

while installing a dishwasher pre-injury there was a warning that said "do not let children play in dishwasher" so i am asuming that at one point in time...someone did.

Am loving the warning on my Zopiclone, Warning: May Cause Drowsiness. Well duh!!

Plus the warning on 'may contain nuts' on packets of peanuts. Well if they didn't I'll be asking for a refund!

I wonder if this place should come with a warning: may cause tea to come out of nose.
