Warning: read this blog while wearing sunglasses, eating tacos and listening to “Put a Label on it” by Ryan Follese for maximum results.

This and other warnings they know damn well we won’t take into consideration. We could ask ourselves why these labels are there but, we know that answer because of a lawsuit. Yes at one point in time some idiot broke the bulb while changing it and cut himself, sued and won because he claimed that he didn’t know he could get hurt it wasn’t on the box anywhere. And he won, probably a lot. That guy is right now sitting on beach, drinking a Pina colada and wondering how he can sue because the sand is too hot. Ugh.  That guy is also the reason that we have labels on water making sure we know that this water is non-gmo and gluten free.  The label on sleep aids that say “may cause drowsiness”. Isn’t that what you hope will happen? The warning labels on irons are seemingly self-explanatory but, “Do not iron clothes on body”. Really ?!?! Someone has to be told to not press a hot iron to their chest with only a thin shirt as protection. Apparently yes. I honestly would like to think that these labels are because there are people that dumb. But unfortunately I think it isn’t stupidity it is greed. There is someone out there trying to sue someone because the gallon of milk didn’t have “Caution: may contain milk” on it. Someone, probably, a lot of people have so little ethics or morals that they sue over these stupid things. “I didn’t know I couldn’t put a baby in the washing machine” “I didn’t know which end of the chainsaw to hold” “I didn’t know not to eat the dog treats” Yes I honestly would like to think that there are stupid people instead of immoral people. So before you call the lawyer to sue the grocery store because they didn’t have a wet floor sign in the parking lot in the rain, think am I being an idiot or just trying to make a sleazy buck? Now if you’ll excuse me I have to put on a hazmat suit to change this lightbulb.
