    EVER WONDER…

    ….why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin?

    ….why women can’t put on mascara with their mouth closed?

    ….why you don’t ever see the headline “Psychic Wins Lottery”?

    ….why “abbreviated” is such a long word?

    ….why doctors call what they do “practice”?

    ….why you have to click on “Start” to stop Windows 98?

    ….why lemon juice is made with artificial flavour, while dishwashing
    liquid is made with real lemons?

    ….why the man who invests all your money is called a broker?

    ….why Noah didn’t swat those two mosquitoes?

    ….why they don’t make the whole plane out of the material used for
    the
    indestructible black box

    ….why sheep don’t shrink when it rains?

    ….if con is the opposite of pro, is Congress the opposite of

    ….why they call the airport “the terminal” if flying is so safe?

    In case you need further proof that the human race is doomed because of
    stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods.

    On a Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping. (and that’s the only
    time
    I have to work on my hair).

    On a bag of Fritos: .You could be a winner! No purchase necessary.
    details
    inside. (the shoplifter special)?

    On a bar of Dial soap: “Directions: Use like regular soap.” (and that
    would be how???….)

    On some Swanson frozen dinners: “Serving suggestion: Defrost” (but,
    it’s
    “just” a suggestion).

    On Tesco’s Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): “Do not turn upside
    down.”(well…duh, a bit late, huh)!

    On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding:”Product will be hot after heating.”
    (…and you thought????…)

    On packaging for a Rowenta iron: “Do not iron clothes on body.” (but
    wouldn’t this save me more time?)

    On Boot’s Children Cough Medicine:”Do not drive a car or operate
    machinery
    after taking this medication.” (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of
    construction accidents if we could just get those 5-year-olds with
    head-colds off those forklifts.)

    On Nytol Sleep Aid: “Warning: May cause drowsiness.” (and…I’m taking
    this because???….)

    On most brands of Christmas lights: “For indoor or outdoor use only.”
    (as
    opposed to…what?)

    On a Japanese food processor: “Not to be used for the other use.” (now,
    somebody out there, help me on this. I’m a bit curious.)

    On Sunsbury’s peanuts: “Warning: contains nuts.” (talk about a news
    flash)

    On an American Airlines packet of nuts: “Instructions: Open packet, eat
    nuts.” (Step 3: maybe, uh…fly QANTAS?)

    On a child’s superman costume: “Wearing of this garment does not enable
    you to fly.”

    “If You never never ask, you’ll never never know”
