Post by maboot38 »

Its a good thing these come with instructions:

For those who really can't figure it out, it says "Instructions, how to use your new hat"

I'm glad they cleared that up for us.

Nah, I don't believe those instructions. Steve has always said that when you get your hat you should sit on it. My AB has made my chair the most comfortable one I've ever had!

I agree with 1 and 3, but what's wrong with putting it on your backside?

I'm still baffled. I just really hope it is a joke. I'd like to track down what hat company that is and ask them.

You know the only reason why that sheet is in there is because some moron sued after he got electrocuted from wearing his hat in the bathtub. The back side of the sheet probably has the following warnings:

For external use only.

Do not leave hat plugged in unattended.

Do not attempt to dry clothes, newspapers, or other materials in the hat. They may catch fire.

Avoid inserting nails, wire, etc. through any holes in the hat during operation.

Do NOT attempt to deep fry fat in your hat.

Close supervision is required when hat is in use by or near children or invalids.

This hat is not intended for use as a dental drill.

Warning: hats have been found to cause cancer in laboratory mice.

Caution: Remove infant before folding hat for storage.

Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.

May be harmful if swallowed.

Warning: May contain nuts.

Not to be used as protection from a tornado.

Hello Caller, thanks for calling the Mr Obvious show. So you have a big brown bowl made out of a soft floppy material......well Caller that seems a bit strange. Maybe a new Rachel Ray garbage bowl or something Caller????

Just think about how the guy who actually thought of using the sheet got overpaid for his idea. I wonder if he got a free hat?

A few more funny instructions taken from here:

http://sanityfound.wordpress.com/2008/0 ... on-labels/

On some Swann frozen dinners:
Serving suggestion: Defrost.
(But it’s ‘just’ a suggestion!)

On Boot’s Children’s cough medicine:
Do not drive car or operate machinery.
(We could do a lot to reduce the construction accidents if we just kept those 5 year olds off those fork lifts.)

On a Korean kitchen knife:
Warning: keep out of children.
(hmm…something must have gotten lost in the translation…)

On a string of Christmas lights:
For indoor or outdoor use only.
(As opposed to use in outer space.)

On a food processor:
Not to be used for the other use.
(Now I’m curious.)

On a chainsaw:
Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands.
(Raise your hand if you’ve tried this..)

On a child’s Superman costume:
Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.
(Oh go ahead! That’s right, destroy a universal childhood belief.)
