IS THAT SO?...... I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!

I suppose, possibly, that this topic might be geared to people and children/teens with possible issues.
But I'm not out to offend anybody, I just think it's kind of amusing....

Ever read the ingredients on some "food" products and chuckle?
How about some appliances?

I remember decades ago, buying a hair blowdryer, and reading the instructions for it.
At that time, the 1970s, and moonlighting as a Disco DJ, I wanted to look nice for the gig.
But reading the warning section of the blowdryer's manual, one of the many warnings was...
"Do Not Use While Sleeping"
And: "Do Not Use While Bathing"
DUH!..... imagine that!

And, about food labels....
Fairly recently, I picked up a few jars of peanut butter on sale while shopping.
Mind you, it's Peanut Butter....
On the label, below the ingredients it says: "Contains Peanuts"
Well DUH!
I understand that some people have allergies to peanuts, but why put such a disclaimer on something like that?
I mean, are some people really that dumb?
Has that "Dumbing Down" of America anything to do with that?
Or has lack of Common Sense turned into a widespread social disease.

Got any other amusing warnings?
Be my guest!

"Are some really that dumb?" Maybe not about peanuts, but yes they are quite obviously! So the labeling covers the companies butt for any lawsuits.

Seems like everything these days has "disclaimers", even toilet paper.

Yep, and no ones perfect. Until recently, I flushed Kleenex. We never had a problem before, but our copper toilet drain in 56 years old now. Lucked out using drain opener and boiling water. Flushed the Draino and waited overnight, then the boiling water in the morning.

Hey Mike, at least you didn't use a blowdryer while taking a pee.
