Feel free to list any you've found that are 'odd' or humorous. The one I'm listing here is related to a feminine product so any of you sensitive types out there that don't care to read these types of things, mosey on down to the next post or post one yourself. You've been warned. :wink:

Ooookay, ladies. Any of you that use NuvaRing for birth control - have you ever read the whole thing that comes with it? "Some women have rarely inserted this into their bladder by mistake - do not insert into your bladder." REALLY!? THIS THING? It's very well suited to the job it's meant to do, but can a full-grown woman with the common sense to seek out birth control really not know the difference between their vagina and..... NOT their vagina?

    On my iron, "Do not iron clothing while wearing them"... Maybe someone was in a hurry, wasn't thinking, sizzle, ER trip...

    My hairdryer has "Do not use in shower" on the warning label. I'm quite the multi-tasker yet I don't see myself ever trying to dry my hair WHILE showering...

    Back massager says "do not use on eyeballs"
    hair straightner says "do not use while sleeping"

    The sad part being, you know somebody had to have done something similar, then tried to sue the company for not warning them :p
  • So you know those plastic bags at the grocery store say, " Do not leave child unattended with bag. It may cause suffocation". Well this lady's young daughter was playing with the bag and my brother said it loud enough for her to here and it was so awk.

    cruise control: will not steer vehicle.
  • This one was verbal

    The exterminator was spraying my baseboards for spiders (eew) and saw my then 18 month old daughter running around.

    him: Just a friendly reminder that could save her life:
    Me: What?
    Him: Make sure she doesn't lick the baseboards for at least two hours after I leave. The pesticide will make her sick.


    REALLY?! Who lets their kids lick baseboards??

    I am a scrapbooker and I have a sticker that reads:

    "if you mess with my scrapbooking supplies you are in for an asswhoopin you will never forget" and yes, that is true.

    but I love the commercials that say "don't try this at home" and its some driver driving really crazy and it says professional driver on closed course haha... that makes me laugh

    I also love the viagra commerciasl and the 4 hour thing. THAT is so funny.

    I bought a bag of mixed nuts and on the side it said "contains nuts" oh and a cake that on the bottom of the box says "do not turn over"

    My partners motorbike has a label on the tank saying don't use lighter to check petrol level and my kids got some plastic fruit and veg which said " this is just a toy do not consume" I found that quite worrying lol

    Those are funny! I always get a kick out of the label/tag on mattresses that say "Do Not Remove". I removed it just to see what would happen. ha
