Entry: ...None?!

Tonight I learned a lesson of such value and importance, it surpassed everything I've read on the Wik' in the past few days. And I learned it from the back of the box that my dinner came in*.



To extrapolate: cardboard is flammable. A maxim I will hold dear to my heart for all time.

One has to wonder if this warning was the result of a lawsuit.


* To save face: I like cooking, I'm pretty decent at it, I just didn't have the energy for it tonight.

    "[...] This may cause a fire."

    May? Exactly what kind of oven will this NOT cause a fire in?

    ...one that's turned off?

    other ridiculous warning labels I've found:

    - the one on the hairdryer that says not to use it in the shower or while sleeping

    - the jar of peanut butter that warned it contained peanuts

    - the one on the stroller that warns to remove the child before folding

    - on a fire log: warning, risk of fire

    - the one on the knife that says to 'keep out of children'

    - the one on the blender that says 'not for the other use'-- what other use??

    ::facepalm:: there are *hundreds* if you look up ridiculous warning signs.
