    who's with me in suing bottled water companies for not having a HUGE WARNING labels saying "if inhaled you may die!"

    Are people getting dumber or just more of them these days?

    Yeah it sounds awful.... unlike a genuine Cork accent. :pac:



    OT but has anybody heard the accent in that click wood flooring ad where the guy walks around on his hands? It's god awful.

    Oh for the love of Jaysus, obvious solvent abuse!

    How did he get metallic blue spraypaint in his hair, well he sprayed it into a plastic bag and took a big suck on it, gives a very characteristic leaking pattern onto the hair and sometimes chin, forehead and ears!

    HA, the stupid deluded cow has more to be worrying about than a "reaction"

    Some people are so thick!

    Well if it doesn't have a big warning on the side saying "DO NOT SPRAY ON HEAD", then I reckon she's on to a winner. :rolleyes:

    I was half listening to this and from what I gathered it was his mother who decided to spray it in his hair as a "prank". The mother wants to sue the hardware store that sold it and also the spray paint company. Her main argument is that she shouldn't have been sold the spray paint and that the spray paint didn't produce the desired effect

    I was half listening to this and from what I gathered it was his mates who decided to spray it in his hair as "prank". The mother wasn't talking about suing anyone but she was annoyed that the hardware store would sell the spray paint to 14 year olds and also that they shouldn't be selling it all!? Then some guy came on and had a go at her saying something like should they stop selling nails because they can be dangerous? I turned off that point as I could feel my brain starting to hurt

    aah, killjoy. I liked the story better when the mother was a dope.

    Oh right thanks. I'll leave it in though because it would only disrupt the flow of the thread if I go making edits now. :pac:

    I agree. Can a mod please delete youcancallme>al's post as it ruins the fun? Possibly a ban is in order too but I don't want to be seen to be backseat modding. :D

    And these:
    Sleeping pills: Warning may cause drowsiness

    Packet of Nuts: Warning, contains nuts

    Hairdryer: Do not use while taking a shower

    Hair straightener: This product contains lead. Wash all areas that come in contact with handle or cord immediately after use.

    Bottle of cough medicine for children 2+: Do not consume alcohol or drive and do not take if you’re pregnant or nursing

    Fire extinguisher: Warning, not flammable

    Lighter fluid: Warning flammable

    Superman costume: Does not enable you to fly

    Mattress: Warning do not attempt to swallow

    Christmas Lights: Warning for indoor or outdoor use only

    Disposable Razor: Do not use during an earthquake

    Sunscreen for my windshield: Do not operate vehicle while screen is in place.

    Rat poison: Not for human consumption

    Hairdryer: Do not operate while asleep

    Cigarette lighter: Keep away from extreme heat or open flame

    Matches: May cause fire

    Salt packet at McDonald’s: Salt Contains salt

    Iron: Warning do not iron clothing that is on your body

    Curling iron: Do not insert into any bodily orifice

    Shotgun: Danger. Firing a loaded weapon at a person can cause injury or death

    Tin of cat food: Not intended for humans. Do not eat like regular food

    Insurance Policy: Does not cover acts of God

    Sun block bottle: For external use only

    Cup of coffee: Contents may be hot

    Chain saw: Warning! Do not attempt to stop blade with hands or genitals

    Microwave oven: Do not use for drying pets

    Electric thermometer: Do not use orally after using rectally

    Hair Coloring: Do not use as an ice cream topping

    Toilet cleaner brush: Do not use in mouth

    Lava lamp: Ingestion of alcohol and/or drugs will NOT make the lava lamp appear more psychedelic. Instead, your head will explode.

    Hat: Do not wear in the rain

    Japanese knife set: Warning do not use on your children

    Some of these warnings are downright illogical though - for example, I heard of a Marks & Spencer bottled product (can't remember what - possibly a sauce) which had a label on its underside saying "Do not turn upside down"...

    In fairness now it was pretty confusing when you could buy two different bottled products both known as Jif Lemon. That was a pancake Tuesday to forget.

    Putting food related terms on non-food products is just asking for trouble.

    Well .. then she said that it's hard to tell that it wasn't for hair ...

    "There was a picture of a vase on it " -- Ah yeah then it has to be for HAIR !!!

    and it said "for all outdoor use, cars, glass, gates .. etc "

    -NOT TO BE USED ON HUMAN SKIN !!!


    yeah that's hard to know if it's not for hair ..

    I suppose it doesn't EXPLICITLY say hair, but one would think he would
    have thought " hey -- the hair is growing out of my skin" !!
