Re:
Well, like I always said . . . the really sad, and scary, part is the fact that, yes, there are people who needed to be told these things! I'm sure many teachers are rolling their eyes over some of these, hoping that they aren't directed toward any of their former students!

Re: And speaking of Kitty Litter...
But I thought it was supposed to stay crunchy . . . even in milk! No wonder the cat wouldn't eat it!

Amazing, isn't it? I would hope that it would be safe to use around pets!

And speaking of Kitty Litter...
I recall reading about a letter to the manufacturer of that product: (paraphrasing)
Dear ---,
I think your product is lousy!
I tried putting it out dry, I tried adding water, adding milk, even gravy, but no matter what I added, the cat still wouldn't eat it.
Sincerely,
xxx

I loved that Arn & Hammer one, LOL. "Safe to use around pets" for that kitty litter.

Re: and especially the most ridiculous ones are there
I know . . . I've thought about that too. On tubes of Vagisil it says "Do not put in eyes or mouth!" Did some woman out there really do that once, thinking it would actually help her "problem?" Scary!

Re:
You may not be surprised. They are probably the same people who would be fooled by a sign that read: "This Does Not Apply To Illiterates." Think about it . . .
