A heat gun and paint remover that produces temperatures of 1,000 degrees and warns users, “Do not use this tool as a hair dryer” has been identified as the nation’s wackiest warning label in M-LAW’s annual Wacky Warning Label Contest.

For those people who aren’t “the sharpest knife in the drawer.” The $250 second place award went to Jam Sardar of Grand Rapids, Michigan for a label on a kitchen knife that warns: “Never try to catch a falling knife.”

“Hurry up, bartender! I’m late for the regatta.” The $100 third place award goes to Alice Morgan of La Junta, Colorado who found a very wacky warning on a cocktail napkin. The napkin has a map of the waterways around Hilton Head, South Carolina printed on it along with this: “Caution: Not to be used for navigation.”

And don’t eat the yellow snow, either. Kirk Dunham of Seabrook, Texas gets an honorable mention for a warning label he found on a bottle of dried bobcat urine made to keep rodents and other pests away from garden plants. It says: “Not for human consumption.”

But will it get cold in the refrigerator? Another honorable mention goes to Lyne Anton of Elk, California who found the following warning label on a baking pan: “Ovenware will get hot when used in oven.”

I always enjoyed what is cautioned on the Gates automotive belt sleeve, it says " Do not install with the engine running".

You know what they say, somebody has had to of tried it for them to warn you about it!

Supositories...label noted:
One per rectum.

Now I know "per" also means "by"...but it reads as if you have more than one rectum.

Some folks do, rs - at both ends! :D

I recently purchased a retractable dog leash which has 2 illustrations (picture in circle with line accross) and the words "Arm or leg burning/Cutting Hazard" and "Finger Amputation/Cutting Hazard" and then the statement "Never wrap leash cord/belt around fingers or other body parts"

Two years ago I used a bottle of deer urine lure with the warning "Do not put on clothing, you may be attacked". It was no better than the brands without the warning.

When does Darwins law take place? Why do I watch commercials where a guy walks out his front door and parachutes down the mountain to get in his car and yet the stupid commercial has to tell you not to attempt it?

My question, Zeppie - just how in heck does he get back up? Rocket belt?
