Instant Quips

One of the many faults that I have is that I have a poor sense of humour and not many people laugh at my jokes or ironical statements. Maybe its my style or my jokes - but I definitely lack the X factor. So this blog is a collection of all quips, jokes, one-liners, life-changers etc that people fwd to me from now on. I am hoping that at least I wont be at a loss of material in parties that I go to.

Label Instructions

These are true - I have seen some of them myself


On Sainsbury's peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts."
(talk about a news flash)

On a bag of Doritos -- 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???....)

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 packaging for a Rowenta iron -- "Do not iron clothes on body."
(but wouldn't this save me 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 bulldozers.)

On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness."
(...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 an American Airlines packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts."
(Step 3: say what?)

On a child's Superman costume -- "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
(I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)

On a Swedish chainsaw -- "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals."
(Oh my God...was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

And my personal Favourite :
On Marks &Spencer Bread Pudding -- "Product will be hot after heating."
(...and you thought????...)
