		Warnings and instructions. 
		March 17, 2020 at 8:51 pm 
		
	 
	
		I ordered some cloths and a solution for cleaning my glasses.  I opened the package today to find directions on how to use the spray bottle of cleaner and the cloths.  There were a few steps on how to clean the cloths themselves with one of the steps advising that it's best to clean them especially if they are dirty.
Thanks for that.  
Reminded me of the glass ornament I got a few years ago that had an official warning from the state of California that said if the ornament was ingested it could cause cancer.
It's so nice there are people looking out for us.

		I once bought some dry-mix tile cement with the warning, ‘Not To Be Take Internally’, which leads to the inescapable conclusion that at least one lackwit in the world has eaten tile cement.

		I'm the kid who played astronaut with the plastic bag from the laundromat.  Breathe came right back.  A tiny blotch in the hippocampus.  No reason to overreact.

This is the fascinating thing about bizarre warnings. The warnings imply that someone, somewhere, sometime  has actually done whatever daft thing.
And sued a manufacturer for failing to tell them it was NOT safe to ingest tile cement.

		Bought some bottle of soda in Sicily one time. The cap had a note in Italian that read "Open here". (I had to ask, my Italian wasn't all that good at the time.)

		I once bought a tin of Argentine corned beef (it was awful, btw) and the label read 'Contents are inside can'.
