In Honor of Stupid people!
In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods!!!
On a Sears hairdryer --
Do not use while sleeping.
(Darn, and that's the only time I have to work on my hair)
On a bag of Fritos --
You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details Inside.
(the shoplifter special??)
On a bar of Dial Soap --
"Directions: Use like regular soap."
(and that would be how??)
on some Swanson frozen dinner --
"Serving suggestion: Defrost."
(but, it's just a suggestion)
on Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) --
"Do not turn upside down"
(well.. duh, a bit late, huh!)
on Marks & Spencer Bread pudding --
"Product will be hot after heating."
(... and you thought?????....)
On packaging for a Rowenta iron --
"Do not iron clothes on body"
(but wouldn't this save me more time??)
On Boot's children Cough Medicine --
"Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication"
(We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could get those 5-year olds with head-colds off those forklifts)
On Nytol Sleep Aid --
"Warning: May cause drowsiness"
(and... I'm taking this because??....)
On most brands of Christmas lights --
"For indoor or outdoor use only"
(as opposed to ... what??)
On a Japanese food processor --
"Not to be used for the other use"
(now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious)
On Sainsbury's peanuts --
"Warning: contains nuts"
(talk about a news flash)
On an American Airlines packets of nuts --
"Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts"
(Step 3: maybe, uh fly Delta??)
On a child's Superman costume --
"Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly"
(I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one :P)

well, two out of three. I think, My fancy and dumbness go well with others. LOLS.
your choice of Superman, and the other DESERT instructions... also are funny, and equally dumb.
The photo I was mentioning is, a BIG HOARDING, giving instructions for the BLIND, and to people who cannot read.
Have uploaded. Please see and comment.

rich, it is really great of you to share such DUMBEST instruction. But, i STILL consider them to be a part of INSTRUCTIONS. i would have uploaded some dumbest instructions on HOARDINGS, but, .. you know it is hard to upload photos here.
But, your efforts to type each and every such lines.. GREAT. please accept my sincere thanx for the efforts.
Of all, I liked...superman costume. I never believed that I cannot fly.
