From a Comedian on Blue Collar Comedy on Sirrius Radio . Reading the Back of a Tube of KY Jelly . " Not For Use in Eyes or Ears " !!! His reply was if you are getting it in your eyes or ears , you are doing it wrong and should likely be wearing a helmet and not go unsupervised .
Similar to Mace , On my trip to Georgia in 1980 for Basic training , had a layover in San Francisco . A few of us went outside checking out the view and smoking cigs. . As typical very windy there , so our lighters were turned up to max . Back inside , ( this was before smoking areas , etc... ) , We were all sitting in this group when this Blonde Bombshell , like Model or Actress type Bombshell , Comes walking down the aisle towards us. One of the guys was playing with his lighter , not lighting it , just something like juggling it across his fingers and this lady stops in front of him , pulls out a cig and asks for a light . He was going to hand it to her , but she held the cig in her mouth and bent down for him to light . We all sweared afterwards that the flame went at least to her eyebrows . None of us laughed until after she went around the corner , then 7 guys and 1 girl were rolling on the floor . :laughing:The smell of burnt hair lasted for the next 30 minutes till we boarded .

Bags of charcoal in the grocery store have a warning something like, "Warning: do not light bag in living room for heat"

THAT is the best laugh I have had on TBN in months...I think the last time I used our little Weber charcoal grill was on a camping trip back in 1993...still have the 20 lb. bag of charcoal mostly unused...I bet it doesn't have that warning on it.
FUNNY !!!! Thanks for sharing.

I know what you mean. It is bad enough having warnings written in English, but to have them in symbols is just stupid.
Don't ask me what the item was, but a while back I saw a warning symbol that looked like a cucumber with a red line through it...
At least I hope it was a cucumber
In case you think I'm joking, I'm seriously not.
Bathroom door hinges? Don't put your cucumber in here?

Just about everything you buy today has the warning this product contains material that may cause cancer in the state of California. No wonder their economy is bad it's not the illegals it's everybody afraid of dying from buying stuff.
I also like all the pharmaceutical adds on tv. half the add is listing all the other ailments you may get by taking their medication. shoot I would just live with what I had then have to add more

That's precisely why I always advise not using such products in the state of California.

Sure glad I live in AZ and don't have to worry.
I really like the ones that say "may cause death." Then "In case of death please notify" Some one. :thumbsup:
