Odd warning...

[Cricket2]

I just opened up a printer and this was on the plastic bag:

What is it trying to say?

Dont choke yourself while wearing this bag on your head?

Odd.

 

[onecoolmama]

WOW!! That is one freaky message!

 

[Cricket2]

Is that supposed to be someone elses hand?

Creepy!

It's probably a warning to keep the bag away from children.

I think the smiley bit the thumb off the hand.
Clearly it is telling you not to feed stray smileys.

There is a seperate warning with a crawling baby that has a bag on it's head too that I chose not to post.

"Warning! As frustrating as it may be to setup this printer and install the drivers, please do not resort to this!"

It's the company's attempt at CYA. There are too many incredibly stupid people in this world who would actually put the plastic bag over their head, hold it closed around their throat and then try to breathe, resulting possibly in their death.

Then their family would sue the company for not warning them that this might happen.

So they use pictures and words because some of these people can't or won't read the warnings.

I can't believe we've come to this. Yes, the coffee is very hot, yes, you will suffocate if you put this plastic bag over your head, yes, you could die if you swallow this poison. DUH!

I love this one:

"Do not use hair dryer while in shower"

Why would you?

Is it wrong that I REALLY want to meet a person like this?

How fun would they be drunk/at parties?

What about the warning on the bottom of the box of an ice cream dessert...

Do not turn box over!

Too late!!!

i just choked on my lunch reading this thread...too funny!!

Hey..maybe you should have a person reading a DIS thread while eating then but a big line through it!

 

[TINKTWINS]

I think its trying to tell you to make sure your breath smells clean BEFORE you do this!

I read this warning on a riding lawnmower:

Do not operate while sleeping.

My all-time favorite warning: "Warning! Cape does not actually enable wearer to fly!"
