We're doomed
Maybe Jan could enlighten us on the last one. I didn't realize this was a problem in Sweden.
In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping.
(That's the only time I have to work on my hair.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a bag of Fritos -- You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.
(the shoplifter special?)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a bar of Dial soap -- "Directions: Use like regular soap."
(and that would be???....)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On some Swanson frozen dinners -- "Serving suggestion: Defrost."
(but, it's just a suggestion.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) -- "Do not turn upside down..."
(well...duh, a bit late, huh!)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding -- "Product will be hot after heating."
(...and you thought????...)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On packaging for a Rowenta iron -- "Do not iron clothes on body."
(but wouldn't this save me time?)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Boot's Children Cough Medicine -- "Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication."
(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5 year-olds with head-colds off those bulldozers.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(...I'm taking this because???....)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On most brands of Christmas lights -- "For indoor or outdoor use only."
(as opposed to what?)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a Japanese food processor -- "Not to be used for the other use."
(now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On Sainsbury's peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts."
(talk about a news flash)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On an American Airlines packet of nuts --"Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts."
(Step 3: say what?)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a child's Superman costume -- "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
(I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On a Swedish chainsaw -- "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."
(Oh my God..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

Thanks a bunch for the laughs, your commentary made it ever so much funnier, OMG, I'll never look at Husqvarna the same way again (... and somewhere therein is a joke about Swedish meatballs that's eluding me...)
I hope you don't whip you husqvarna out in public. They do that in Amsterdam - but not here.
"odd" should have been off..I couldn't spell before treatment, I was kind of hoping I could after tx, but no luck.............;^)
"Well....if fellas in Sweden think they can stop a chainsaw with their genitals...maybe there's more to be proud of than embarrassed by. ;-> "
ROFL!!!!!!!! I own a husqvarna chainsaw, but gosh, I guess I have to take my hat odd to Jan to!!!!
