what are some of the stupidest warning labels you've seen?

i just bought some sleep aid pills, and get this, they may cause drowsiness. i would hope so, otherwise, i'd want my money back.

Heating massage oil, Warning this product may cause tingling. WTF? Isn't that the point?

I've seen lists of a few that have come around in email and they crack me up.

Sadly enough, I'm sure a lot of them are there because some poor challenged soul actually tried it before. Like putting the frozen pizza in the oven without taking the plastic and cardboard off first.

Slightly off topic, but this reminds me of the little "qualifiers" you hear near the end of television advertisements about prescription drugs.....

"If you notice...rapid heart rate, profuse persperation, aching muscles, extreme headaches, explosive gas, bleeding anus....stop using colon blow, and call your doctor!"

Wait a minute....

The hair dryer we have states, "Warning: Do not use in shower"

I saw this one on the net that someone wanted to put on the bible and thought it funny:

I get annoyed at the warnings before movies on TV.

"The following program may contain coarse language, violence, nudity, strong sexual content, adult situations, frightening scenes, and mature themes. Viewer discretion is advised."

Well, DUH!!! THAT'S WHY I'M WATCHING!!!

Idiots.

I should have worn depends before reading this. That would have been a good warning!
