    The 'hot' warning on coffee was because Selma somebody put the hot coffee between her legs, at the drive thru. The obvious happened, she sued, and 12 people and judge, actually bought the BS rather than throwing the case out for stupidity. Now there are Selma Awards, to highlight more ridiculousness that goes on in our 'I'm not responsible for me' society. Okay, I'll get off the box now. Thanks for listening.

    Lol, like the others said about the coffee being HOT! Yeah, there really are some so called "stupid" people, just waiting to slap a big lawsuit on a company. They don't care what they're called as long as they get some big bucks out of it! :)

    Oh my, I had my laugh for today, so did hubby!

    However, It is the stupid lawyers in this country that have made some of those stupid instructions necessary!

    I went to college with a girl that had very thick, curly, thigh length hair. She would wash it, then section it off and wrap it around her head and pin it in an effort to straighten it. She then would put her hair dryer (the kind with the big plastic bubble looking thing that fit over your head) on and sleep with it running all night. The hose was secured with duct tape to make sure it didn't pull out. Maybe the hairdryer one was for her. LOL

    On a child's Superman costume-- "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
    -----------------------------------------
    This actually does happen. Once my youngest as a child pinned a towel around her neck, climbed onto the table and yelled that she was Superman (didn't have such a good grasp of DNA at that age) and leaped from the table to the floor. The flight was successful, but the landing left a lot to be desired, since she hit the chair on the way down, and had a black eye by the time we got to ER. I almost got pulled in by CPS, but she was always talkative and was thoroughly ticked off because she couldn't fly like Superman on TV and told the ER doctor in great detail about it. ALL about it, over and over, she was really mad at Superman and not her own stupidity. (Now she's a 50 year old school teacher and highly intelligent!!!)
    I had gone to answer the phone and thought she was busy trying to pin the towel around the dog's neck for a bandanna.
    And then there was the time other daughter put a bean in her ear....well, perhaps some of these labels ARE really necessary!!!!
