Not really a joke but reality. These are parts from labels or instruction manuals used as an example in one of my study books ;D They are well...interesting ;D

On a Conair pro style 1600 hair dryer: WARNING: Do not use in shower.Never use while sleeping

Instructions for folding up a portable baby carriage: Step 1 remove baby

A rest stop on a Wisconsin highway: Do not eat urinal cakes

On a bag of fritos: You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside.

On some Swanson frozen dinners. Serving suggestion: Defrost.

On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom of box): Do not turn upside down

On Marks&Spencer bread pudding: Product will be hot after heating.

On packaging for a Rowenta iron: Do not iron clothes on body.

On Nytol sleeping aid: Warning: May cause drowsiness.

I thought they were quite funny.

The sad things though some of these like the Iron one are really necessary ;D ;D ;D ;D

lol        seen many of them before  

On the side of my prescription sleeping pills it says "drowsiness may occur"     Gee       I would hope so ::)

On a Banquet microwave dinner i had earlier...Will be hot after heating.        Really....If they didnt have this warning could i sue them if i burn myself:P

Im sure if i was to read some more labels i could find many more :-/   In this day in age apparently they need to treat us like we are stupid so we cant sue them for common sence mishaps ::)
