An Older Person's Perspective:
I’m thinking about having #2 put on all my cars......
1. I'm not saying let's go kill all the stupid people. I'm just saying let's remove all the
warning labels and let the problem work itself out.
2. I changed my car horn to gunshot sounds.
People move out of the way much faster now.
3. You can tell a lot about a woman's mood just by her hands.
If they are holding a gun, she's probably pissed.
4. Gone are the days when girls cooked like their mothers.
Now they drink like their fathers.
5. You know that tingly little feeling you get when you really like someone you've just
met? That's common sense leaving your body.
6. I don't like making plans for the day. Because then the word
"premeditated" gets thrown around in the courtroom.
7. I didn't make it to the gym today. That makes 1,500 days in a row.
8. I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim.
I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.
9. Dear paranoid people who check behind shower curtains for murderers.
If you find one, what 's your plan?
10. Everyone has a right to be stupid.
Politicians just abuse the privilege.

Re: An Older Person's Perspective:
Today I power washed my Tractor , then greased all the fittings ! I've been around tractors and other equipment all my life , but for some reason today I must have read 2 dozen WARNING labels telling me do not put your hands here ! NOT a Step ! Listen for BUZZER ! After reading all those labels .....HELL , I was too scared to get back on the Tractor ! I guess John Deere is covering their own ASS or they sell to some Really Stupid People ! Then while I was putting the power washer away I started reading labels on it ...enough is enough . I went in the garage and fixed me a Drink ...and there is a Warning Label on Early Times... I agree with #1 !!!

If you decide to sell to dumb people, you expand your market considerably. Also, it is easier to get $$$ out of them!Snakester wrote:I guess John Deere is covering their own ASS or they sell to some Really Stupid People !
My grandfather said, "Always use your head!".
I told him, "I want to pound nails!"
He said, "Best use a hammer instead."

Yup, and the thing that strikes me most here is that you haven't even really seen all those warnings in the past because they are now so ubiquitous that they just become part of the background noise that you tune out. Such a ludicrous level of superfluous caution is counterproductive. The only people who don't understand this are our government and the plaintiff's bar and American juries who continue to reward stupidity and recklessness by awarding ridiculous sums on suits for failure to warn.

'Bout what I figured. If that don't give you poop on the brain, it can't be done.

Re: An Older Person's Perspective:
Seriously, from threads on other forums about wanting to have a handgun dry but usable in wet conditions, the best bet is to put the gun in a large zip lock bag.
The gun will stay dry and can be used while in the bag in an emergency.
FYI - this came up when discussing canoeing trips down rivers in Ohio.
