Maybe it's hard to differentiate between the box and the pizza

I guess it depends on how hungry you are.

Common Sense is sorely lacking in the world today. In case you needed further proof that the human race is littered with stupidity (and lawyers), here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.

1. On a Sear's hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping" (Gee, that's the only time I have to work on my hair.)

2. On a bag of Fritos: "You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside." (The shoplifter special.)

3. On a bar of Dial soap: "Directions: Use like regular soap." (And that would be how...?)

4. On some Swanson frozen dinners: "Serving suggestion: Defrost." (But its "just" a suggestion.)

5. On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): "Do not turn upside down."(Too late!)

6. On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: "Product will be hot after heating." (As night follows day . . .)

7. On packaging for a Rowenta iron: "Do not iron clothes on body." (But wouldn't this save me more time?)

8. 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 forklifts.)

9. On Nytol Sleep Aid: "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (One would hope.)

10. On most brands of Christmas lights: "For indoor or outdoor use only." (As opposed to what?)

11. On a Japanese food processor: "Not to be used for the other use." (I gotta admit, I'm curious.)

12. On Sainsbury's peanuts: "Warning: contains nuts." (Talk about a news flash.)

13. On an American Airlines packet of nuts: "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts." ( Step 3: Fly Delta.)

14. On a child's superman costume: "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly." (I don't blame the company. I blame parents for this one.)

15. On a Swedish chainsaw: "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands." (Was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

I wish they would pass some laws that when you take a drug you must sign a release with all possible side effects known. Nobody is twisting your arm to take them. No more lawsuits as you were advised of possible side effects. Life has no guarantees. Lawyers do though, as far as litigation goes.

A feeble attempt at hip humor...

I worked in SC radio 42 years ago, so I'm curious, what station/town?

So many of you are underestimating the level of stupidity that exists amongst us. There is a recording of a Welshman complaining, over the telephone, to the local supermarket he'd bought a frozen pizza from for his dinner. He was annoyed that there was no topping on it as shown on the box. The customer service operative asked him if he had "turned it over to check the other side?". All that you can hear is the squeal of surprise that came from the Welshman. It was the speed at which the supermarket employee asked the question that implies that it wasn't the first time they'd heard the complaint that shocked me most.
Another example was when a young factory operative lost a finger in the machine he operated. On returning to work, following visit to hospital, he was accompanied back to the machine by the Head of Health and Safety who then asked him to explain what had happened. "I'll show you what happened!" said the youth who immediately stuck another finger into the machine and lost that one too.

Notice the lettering is not wrinkled at the same place that the box is wrinkled.

I have no problem believing that there are a great many people out there that simply don't have both oars in the water. People that think that wearing masks is some kind of political action or refuse to get the vaccine. I have a friend that didn't believe in wearing a mask and his associates didn't either. He is now dead from the virus. What ever happened to commonsense.

Common sense isn't so common anymore.

That's okay. I'm still hungry looking at "pizza."
