Consumer Instructions For Dummies

Lovingly add to the list of Things That P*** Me Off: Nanny Labels.

You know the ones. They assume that just because you're smart enough to read, you're not necessarily smart enough to think. Toss logic out the window and just read the box. Please read all instructions carefully before proceeding.

Warning. Do Not Use This Hair Dryer In The Shower
Caution: Product May Be Cold (spotted on an ice cream carton)
Do not eat before cooking. (on a box of microwaveable pizza snacks)

Ya think?

Even better: Keep Frozen two inches away from Cook Before Eating - oh, the choices, the choices! What to do!?

I'm a firm believer in personal responsibility and Darwin.

I think those that use a hair dryer in the shower should - if you're that stupid why bother with the warning.
