Have you ever seen these before?  You've seen products that have warning labels are stupid have on, but need to be on in order for the company not to be sued or there are just labels that are completely unnessacary. Here's some examples:

Iron Label: Do not iron clothes on the body (You got to figure some idiot tried that in the past)

Medical Thermometer Label: Do not use orally after using rectally.

Side of a Slush Puppy Can Label says, "Ice May be Cold."

500-piece puzzle: Some assembly may be required

Can of Easy Cheese: For best results, remove cap.

Can of Self-Defense Pepper Spray Label: May irritate eyes.

Can you guys come up with any others you've seen?

One of my students came in with a Chinese made network cable tester.  Its directions included these gems:

"NOT TO BE USED FOR THE OTHER USE"
and
"DO NOT CHANGE SETTING IN YOUR OWN MIND"

Sadly yes they are necessarry in this day and age.  Do I think people are that stupid? Some are..But more often than not, it's because people are greedy. 

I'm sure the origin point of most of these labels come from sombody looking at a product and thinking to themselves "Hey, there's no label on this product saying don't use it in this manner.  I'm betting for a few moments of discomfort I could get some large cash settlement"

And humanity takes another step towards extinction.

I have seen a picture or a set of small screwdrivers that said, "Do not insert into penis". Granted I suspect that one may of been photoshopped.

Over the last 6 weeks or so I've had 2 CT scans and 1 PET scan, in each one I was more or less immobilized by the technician then the table I was lying was raised up and slid into the tube till my head was completely inside. I was stopped in this position for some time with my face about 10 - 12 inches from the surface of the machine. The inside of these things is a flat white color with only one feature that attracts the eyes, a small rectangular lens which is right in front of your face, you just have to look at it.
There is a warning label above and below this lens that can only be seen and read from the position I was in.
Laser aperture, do not look into lens.
