I found this list of disturbing product labeling at ebaumsworld. (Disclaimer so I don't get in trouble or something.) I think it sums up our stage in human intelligence pretty well.
1. On Sears hairdryer:
"Do not use while sleeping."
2. On a bar of Dial soap:
"Directions: Use like regular soap."
3. On some Swanson frozen dinners:
"Serving suggestions: Defrost."
4. On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom of box):
"Do not turn upside down."
5. On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding:
"Product will be hot after heating."
6. On packaging for a Rowenta iron:
"Do not iron clothes on body."
7. On Boot's Children's Cough Medicine:
"Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this
medication."
8. On Nytol Sleep Aid:
"Warning: May cause drowsiness."
9. On most brands of Christmas lights:
"For indoor or outdoor use only."
10. On a Japanese food processor:
"Not to be used for the other use."
11. On Sainsbury's peanuts:
"Warning: Contains nuts."
12. On a child's Superman costume:
"Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly."
13. On a Swedish chain saw:
"Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands."
14. On a bottle of Palmolive Dishwashing liquid:
"Do not use on food."
