Whacked up Warning Labels

Ever took a good look at the "Warning Label" or "Directions" of a product you own, saw in the store, or planned to buy? Ever saw an "odd" "ridiculous" label....a "Wacked up" label or direction? And you think....WHO on earth would do this or that???? Well the reason behind these crazy labels is....well "someone" has done it in the past....and the manufacture(s) has to cover their booties and make sure it doesn't happen again. So here are some I found. And I think to myself....."Who...why would you do this"??????

”Weird product labels are a sign of our lawsuit-plagued times. In the ‘good old days’, if someone spilled coffee in their lap, they simply called themselves clumsy. Today, people call themselves an attorney. This "sue first, ask questions later" mentality has not only produced weird warning labels, it has increased the cost of products and services families use daily."
