In reply to the discussion: Okay, NOW I Get it! [View all]Hock_Mir_Keyn_Chinek
(51 posts)8. It has been my experience that when a sheet of product safety warnings says
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.

A warning label presumes a level of reading comprehension that the best of them struggle to reach.

I swear it would be more effective than any order by any mayor, governor, or pee-resident!

My favorite came on a blister pack of drill bits: "Do not use to sweep ashes".
