(copy from journal - stupid warning signs)
You Don't Say
I picked up a package of single-serving sized Nibblets corn last week and I noticed it has a Stupid Person Warning on it. These kinds of things amuse me terribly. I'm forever reading the fine print on commercials and such for this exact reason. The things they actually warn people of these days boggles and baffles the mind.
"Microwave 2- 2 1/2 minutes or until hot. Caution: Hot."
Well, duh! Didn't you just tell me to microwave until hot? Doesn't that by it's very definition mean it's going to therefore be hot? OH! See, I thought that if I microwaved it until it was hot, it'd be cold. Thanks for the warning!
Days like this remind me why I fear for humanity.
