Sometimes it is really needed to state the obvious: http://www.canf.bc.ca/briefs/mcdonalds.html Stella Liebeck, 79, suffered severe burns after she spilled coffee on herself. She purchased the coffee at a drive-through owned and operated by fast-food giant McDonald's. She was not the driver of the car and the coffee was spilled while the car was parked. That is, Ms. Liebeck's grandson had pulled the car to the curb and the vehicle was stationary before she placed the cup of coffee between her knees and attempted to remove the lid for the purpose of adding cream and sugar. As she lifted one side of the lid, the coffee spilled onto her lap. Immediately, the coffee was absorbed by her sweatpants. Her clothing forced what was later learned to be “super-heated coffee” against her skin. A jury awarded Ms. Liebeck $200,000 in compensatory damages. This sum was reduced to $160,000 because, appropriately, she was found to be partially responsible for the incident. More significantly, the jury members saw fit to punish McDonald's. The jury awarded Ms. Liebeck $2.7 million in punitive damages. This amount represented approximately two days of profit from coffee sales for the restaurant chain. It also represented the single most publicized aspect of this case. The trial judge reduced the award of punitive damages to $480,000 (three times the amount of the original compensatory damages). Rather than going through an appeal, the actual settlement amount was reached between the parties, confidentially, for an undisclosed sum.
This is really important. Sometimes in hotels hair dryers are provided in the bathroom near shower, which is quite dangerous. If water spilled on running electrical appliances (such as hair dryer, electric razor, etc), it can electrocute you, causing death or serious injuries. To minimize impact, we can use rubber sandal while around wet area (shower, bathroom).

gee christa...did you leave any to post for the rest of us? lol how bout on a ladder; must use safety glasses.
there are LOADS of things left!!!!!!!! How many products are in this world? how many where spoken of?
I don't remember the exact wording, but a while ago while at the gym I noticed a sticker on a treadmill that said something to the effect of "Consult a doctor if you experience any shortness of breath while using this device."

So funny
some of those actually make sense if you think about them, for instance the milk crates. They are routinly stolen by the companies they go to (and everyone else who sees them) for use as storage crates but unlike cardbord boxes they still belong to the milk company. No one thinks of them like that though, they think once the product is out of them they are free for the pickings
Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! its not a warning lable.. but why in the would does that say 100gloves by weight? i saw that at the drs this morning, and was like WTF!
because than instead of counting the gloves inside the box, the company assembles the gloves based on weight of 100 pre-measured gloves. That way the company does not have to deal with extra weight shipping costs. Its a marketing trick.
usually its the other way around...there is less gloves as a result of unequal latex process of manufacturing of gloves. But yeah potentially you can get a glove or not get a glove.
