Wait, why do users in Europe have to be 6 years older than in the US?

You do know that a claymore, or claigh mor (big sword), was originally a big, two-handed sword used by angry Scotsmen, don't you?
It's also yet another reason why we're awesome.

It's a corporate world we live in, children. It isn't pointless if it keeps even one person from filing a lawsuit.

Nothing goes without saying anymore. And even when something does, people feel compelled to state obvious fact anyway. Deal with it.
Doesn't mean we can't laugh at it. Hard.

I saw an instruction book for a hat. It had little illustrations saying that the hat was NOT meant for your buttocks or feet.

On my old Pink Panther plushy theres a warning label saying "WARNING! Do not have sexual intercourse with the plush toy" Maybe because it's the size of a relatively short girl?
Watch the first "Mr. Bean" episode, and you might understand.

On a Claymore - Aim at Enemy
How do you aim a sword?
Eh, He meant Claymore as in explosive satchel mine that fires shrapnel really fast if you walk into a laser sight/cause movement
You can aim mines now? I thought they just sat there and waited for some unsuspecting person to become an instant paraplegic.
If COD 4 isn't lying then claymores actually have a forward area to which the laser or movement sensors point, and where the shrapnel is thrown.

sorry, but maybe a few claymores use movement sensors but most use trip lines. those damn movement sensors are too tricky for the battle feild. my source is a former navy E.O.D technician.

These two are from an email I got a few years back. The wording may not be exact but pretty close.


1) On the bottom of a frozen dinner: "Do not turn upside down"
2) On a child's cough medicine bottle: "Do not operate heavy machinery." (Like we have a problem with 5 year olds operating fork lifts while high on cough syrup)

On a hair dryer: "DANGER- Not to be used for the other use."

It's almost ominous in a way.

Correct, claymores only fire forward.

This MAY have just been a drunk story but one of my friends in the lab from my university days once told me that she saw a bottle of ether with the label:

WARNING: Contents both flammable and inflammable.

Now I know that both words mean it can catch on fire, but is it really necessary to have both? In a PhD RESEARCH LAB?

On a chainsaw

Do not stop chain with hands or genitals.

Genitals, wow. Must have HAD some balls to try this.

"Slow.. Children at play"

It's kind of funny, but also pointless, there's a speed limit already set in the neighborhood. Thankfully someone took a sharpie and changed the sign so it said.
"Slow Children 10 points!"
