Silly signs and lawyers

Sign posted next to the hot water taps at most hotels.
"CAREFUL WATER MAY BE HOT"
D-uh, how else would I want the water to be.
Sign on Macdonalds coffee cup
"Contents may be hot"
Brilliant, George W that one is for you.
As quite a few people are allergic to nuts, its mandatory now to display a warning on the package containing nuts or nut derivatives. But when a pack of nuts has "Peanuts" in bright colourful letters on all sides what is the point in printing "Product contains Nuts" in small letters at the back?
Found this on a package of frozen fast food:
"Heat in microwave oven 5 minutes and serve. Warning! Contents may be hot after heating."
Wow, am I brain dead or what!
On a washing machine,
"Do not allow children to play in the machine"
Cheap merrygoround?
On a Rowenta Iron box,
"Never Iron clothes on the body"
Hmm...thought I could save some time there, but looks like it not advisable.
Nytol sleep aid warns us,
"May cause drowsiness"
Yikes!
A warning label on a baby stroller cautions the user to "Remove child before folding."
There will be lower incidences of missing children if people followed that I guess.
The first prize goes to a warning on a bottle of drain cleaner. The label reads: "If you do not understand, or cannot read, all directions, cautions and warnings, do not use this product."

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I am not sure about the former" said Einstein.Truer words were never spoken.
