After four years of watching Trump-humpers in action, I now understand why some hairdryers come with the warning Do not use while sleeping or showering, why some children's clothes are clearly labelled Remove child before laundering, and some shirts come with the warning Do not iron while wearing.
I used to wonder who these labels were intended for now I know.

It is unfortunate that no one needs written instructions about copulation.. If they did, there would be fewer morons reproducing. They wouldnt be able to figure it out.

(6,561 posts)Damn, that really burns the sinuses.
You're absolutely right, though. Some of the dumbest damn 'warnings' I've seen have made my intelligence skip a beat. Example: I bought a step ladder that had a warning on the TOP STEP that said (I kid you not): "Do not attempt to step higher than this step."
W.T.F. ????
Sad to say, many of our fellow citizens are stupid as shit.
And yes, these warning ARE made for them.
Worse yet, many of them vote.

(64,852 posts)The sticker on mine says "Do Not Use As A Step".
Which makes sense. Seems obvious, but that would be risky.

(51 posts)something like:
"Do not hold product in your hand while inserting head in bucket and sticking fork into electrical outlet"
It is usually because some moron actually did that and sued them over it, since he wasn't warned not to attempt that act.

(32,579 posts)... these companies don't care about the morons who do stupid stuff. They care about the liability lawsuits when the stupid morons hire lawyers who sometimes win their cases. It's all about liability.
You see it's really the greedy lawyers who drive all this, and they're the ones who have ruined our country.

(275 posts)So if we have signs that say Do Not Wear Masks, will they wear masks?
or a sign that says Vote for Drumpf/Pence 2020 - they will not vote for the buffoon?

Might get them to wear one, and speaking for myself, it's true!

"Liberals want you to DIE so you can't vote! They want all the masks for themselves! Those people you see yelling on the street and in stores without masks? Those are CRISIS ACTORS paid for by Deep State operatives and GEORGE SOROS!"

"Mask Keeps Liberals Alive"
"Catch a Covid With A Mask"
"Dems VOTE" - maybe they won't vote

(23,947 posts)..to try to sweep anything be something of an exercise in futility? And are we talking ashes from an outdoor grill, from your Uncle Joe, or what?
Hermit-The-Prog
(33,254 posts)It was a set of bits from Harbor Freight a few years ago. Drill Master Item 01800, 13-piece bit set, 1/16 inch through 1/4 inch.
1. Keep away from children under the aga [sic] of 5.
2. Do not use to sweep ashes.
3. Inspect before use; do not use if parts loose or damaged.
4. Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles when adjusting.
Save these warnings.
I hearby affirm that I have adhered to all of these warnings. (Although I confess I've never adjusted the bits and therefore never needed to heed #4. )
