Handle With Care
Do Not Drop
WARNING:
If you had to handle JUST ONE package without wrecking it, this is it.

--Do not use as a flotation device in water

and

--Not to be used as a sled :-D

From a pack of swim pants:

Like most clothing, pants can burn.

We bought a crib mattress and it came with the following warning on the
box:

Handle With Care
Do Not Drop
WARNING:
If you had to handle JUST ONE package without wrecking it, this is it.

I almost fell over laughing when I saw this for the first time. We
didn't even notice this until after we got it home.

For Best results, wash warm with like colors, tumble dry on low. For not
so
good results, drag behind car through mud puddles and blow dry on roof
rack.

please don't do this to me, it hurts to laugh (after my wisdom tooth
extraction)

That's pretty funny! I love it when companies put in weird little things
on
their product because I guess they assume most people don't read them. My
husband once had a shirt with care instructions that read:

For Best results, wash warm with like colors, tumble dry on low. For not
so
good results, drag behind car through mud puddles and blow dry on roof
rack.


lol!

This one is my current fave:

DH's favorite label is on his beer. See
http://www.arrogant *******.com (click on "I accept"
to see the label that's on the bottle).

Best wishes,

LOL, I was laughing at the warning label on A's new Exersaucer:

--Do not use as a flotation device in water

and

--Not to be used as a sled :-D

I remember when I read that on my daughter's exersaucer. What's terrible
is
I really felt tempted to try the sledding thing. The thought never even
crossed my mind prior to reading the label. LOL

One of the few things that my mother saved from when I was a baby/toddler
was my baby sled-a little wood runner sled with a seat and with handles for
the parent to hold (the seat and the handles are removable-I sledded on that
thing until I was at least 7-8 years old). I'm sure that it would be
considered completely unsafe now, but according to my mother, in Northern
Iowa it was more useful than a stroller for a good part of the year.

Astroglide (lubricant) bottle.

Oh, do share. Please. ;-)

I don't remember exactly, but it had something to do with the product being
very slippery, may cause serious injury if spilled and cleaning spill
immediately, lol.

LOL! Same here! I remember thinking, but what if I didn't go down a hill and
took him down the sidewalk in it, lol.

Definitely useful! You are probably right, though, in it being considered
unsafe nowadays. Here in western Wisconsin a sled comes in much more
handy than a stroller for a decent portion of the year. I wish I had a sled
with higher edges because last year I kept dumping the kids over the edge
trudging through the snow.

I had to laugh, though, my husband brought home a toddler slide for the kids
that a co-worker gave him. The co-worker's kids are quite a bit older than
ours, and they used the toddler slide for a sled. They folded it, put a
rope on it, and I guess it was good to go. I guess that's why these
products have such goofy warnings on them.
