Warnings We'd Rather Not Receive

After the intensity of the story told in the post below by a young college student at ground zero of the tsunami, a little reliefe is in order.

Providing it is Michigan Lawsuit Abuse Watch, with their awards for really ridiculous warning labels -- you know, the kind forced on us by lawsuit-crazy trial attorneys who will sue a nice, profit-seeking company at the drop of a hat.

Here are the top three:

#3 -- A warning on a digital thermometer: "Once used rectally, the thermometer should not be used orally.

#2 -- A warning on a child's scooter: "This product moves when used."

And the most ridiculous warning label, on a toilet bowl brush: "Do not use for personal hygiene."

Aren't you glad we've got John Edwards and his friends looking out for us?
