REALLY? - Some things are common sense

[JAGG]

The root of the problem is , not taking responsibility for your own actions. Its always someone else who is to blame. Especially if we can sue them and get rich, when we spill our hot coffee and get burned. Yes its hot, that's why it's called HOT coffee. Tort reform ! So many govt. agencies in place right now, who's only purpose is to micromanage us . Pretty soon you will be required to wear a seat belt on a bicycle. And some sort of helmet when you drive. We must be saved from ourselves! Quick somebody make a new law.
Did you know according to the national highway safety council , 52% of all fatality accidents were not wearing a seat belt. That means 48 percent were wearing one ! That means the odds are the same with or without a seat belt! Yet they felt those odds should justify imposing mandatory seatbelt laws. The commericals, click it or ticket. Seat belts save lives! No they don't. Not anymore than not wearing one does. The odds are the same.

YES - Like those people in California who got sued because while they were off on vacation, someone's 3-year-old kid CLIMBED A FENCE and got into their pool and drowned.

And I'm thinking those parents had some balls to sue the owners of the pool because it was their responsibility to watch their own damn kid.

Its crazy! But one good turn deserves another. I think it would be fitting for DHS to spearhead charges of child neglect. And take away any other kids those worthless people have. But not on the grounds of failing to properly supervise their kids. But for moving into a house that is within a 1 mile radius of a swimming pool, when their children have not been given swimming lessons. And for allowing their children to swim when no life guard was present! You wanna be ignorant? 2 can play at that game. Ha

Seems like common sense is rarely common.

Warning on the side of my bottle of window cleaner: WARNING! EYE IRRITANT..Keep away from eyes. Do not spray in or near eyes.

Does this mean that at one time someone could not get the streaks off their windows and decided, perhaps, that the streaks were actually on their eyes? And even sadder...why does that possibility not even surprise me anymore?

If that was the case the warning tag probably would have said : Caution this window cleaner contains certain chemicals for removing streaks on glass, however this cleaner will not remove streaks on eyes and should not be used for that purpose. This cleaner will also NOT remove streaks on household pets, or their eyes either. Including gold fish, and small cattle. Or Emu's. No one under the age of 18 should use this product without proper adult supervision. No adults should use this product, without the proper goverment agencies supervising.
Read all warning labels before using this product. Do not use this product for anything other than it's originally intent. The misuse of this product may cause serious health problems and death. Or even worse. If you are experiencing shortness of breath, dizziness, uncontrolled leg movement, night sweats, finger nail discoloration, unibrows, male pattern baldness, erectile disfunction, rash, memory loss, loss of hearing or blindness, frequent or infrequent urination, dryness of mouth, difficulty breathing , difficulty thinking other than your normal lack of brain cells, return this product for a full refund. Dirty windows are the least of your worries. Any questions call 1-800- urtoodumb.

Let's not forget the law that may be put into effect since the Casey Anthony case. I mean since when do we need a law to remind us that if our child has been missing for a month that we must notify authorities. *eye roll*

My friend got a new camera and the instructions stated to first take the camera out of the box.

Now I want to.

I don't even know where to put this.

There is a blurb on Huffington Post about the fact that 500 prisoners (some described as "senior Al Qaeda members") apparently escaped from Abu Ghraib prison today amidst some kind of "assault" (their words) from insurgents.

And a shitload of people got killed in the process.

For those who don't know or remember the significance of Abu Ghraib prison? That's the prison where our American soldiers took dehumanizing and disgusting photos of prisoners (pissing on them and nude dogpiles) that when discovered, helped fuel HUGE resentment toward America.

And yes, this is a huge oversimplification.

But what fucks with my head? Is that the HEADLINE today is Kate Middleton having a fucking baby.

I am not even amazed anymore at what the news orgs will place value on when reporting but this is just gross to me.

Anyway, I just needed to vent.

Warning do not iron clothes while wearing them. Iron is HOT while in use.




How fucking stupid can you be to use a hot iron on the clothes you're wearing??? Just sayin............

[cinnamongrrl]

This seems a good place for this....

The other day I passed by a house that has had an old ratty ass couch on their front lawn forever and a day...
and yet they hired a guy to come do the yard....
He did a fine job...around the slightly rained on moth eaten sofa that is smack dab in the middle of the front yard...

I could go on, but delicacy prevents it....I CAN be delicate dammit...

[Bad_boi]

I found a warning label to stick on the planet

[Words]

Warning on a bar of fruit and nut chocolate:

This product 'may' contain nuts. Not 'does' contain. 'May' contain.

Hhmm...

I just watched a special on tv last night about a young teenage girl that was having an argument with her bf, threatened to wreck her car, etc. She crossed the center lane at a high speed and smashed into another vehicle killing a pregnant woman and her son. The teenage girl couldn't recall the accident and was eventually sentenced to prison time. The teenager's family attempted to sue the other family for an exuberant amount of money. Eventually they dropped the case, but can you believe the nerve.
