This Is Madness

[drwatson]

And here I was, convinced they only have adverse health effects in California

HA! I was just about to say the same thing. Many of my fishing lures say this too. Seems to me that California is the problem.

Don't fish and smoke there!

You know, there are a lot of people killed and maimed each year by their use of farm tractors and other farm machinery. I can't wait to see those warning labels on all those John Deere caps.
Then there's the addictive force of gambling. So now I wait for warning stickers on rearview mirror hanging dice.
Attending NASCAR events one can cause considerable damage to their hearing. I say if you can put a giant STP sticker on, you can put a warning sticker on every single vehicles hood.
And then we can put warning stickers on all govt. bureaucracy letting us know that dealing with them may cause permanent brain damage, dropping IQ's by 20 points.

no, but seriously, cancer?! Tobacco could cause cancer?!?! It's just so.... shocking and unexpected. Had I been told earlier or warned in someway... this news is just so disappointing.

 

[ssjones]

Thanks, I needed a good laugh this AM!

 

[jvnshr]

At least it doesn't have these kind of pictures

 

[papipeguy]

Not yet.

 

[tbradsim1]

. This one will cause a revolution and stop all this crap. Go Grandkids!

Big Brother is watching you and warning you that life has dangers!!

 

[woodsroad]

I feel much safer, knowing that the government that brought me clandestine nuclear waste dumps, syphilis tests on prisoners and the Gold King Mine disaster is here to protect my health.
Does that hat meet minimum SPF ratings standards?

 

[deathmetal]

The warning label makes me think I should smoke the hat

If someone smokes the hat, and then dies, can their estate sue the government for misleading labeling?

Fluffie was a simple and quiet man who trusted the government and trusted the television. He ate the FDA recommend amount of food and took the regulated amount of vitamins along with his "as needed" prescribed doses of Xanax, Oxicontin and Adderall. He smoked his pipe, watched Fox News, bought what the commercials told him to buy, drank diet soda because anything labeled "diet" contained aspertame and aspertame is good because dieting is good. He watched NASCAR and used Tide. Your Honor, I ask you, how could this sheep of a man NOT think he could smoke the hat?
Get me a lawyer who can make this hold up in court and I'll meet up with John right now and smoke the damn hat!

 

[ophiuchus]

Well, the next time I see a damn Lunesta hat, or any hat from big pharma, I'd better have a tag with a list of all the possible negative side effects with a warning to stop using if experienced.
Our culture's devolving ... :evil:

 

[fluffie666]

No. We're smart enough to not need anymore warning labels. What we can do spend all our time finding loopholes in this culture so we don't get treated like children. Or, we can develop a new culture. There's an idea!

Yes, and many other such things that the vast majority of people either know nothing about or simply don't care.

Yes, the mainstream, government approved, corporate, big-pharma sponsored "culture" is perfectly safe and healthy. Which is why we live in a society filled with morbidly obese, chronically ill, drooling zombies whose entire perception of reality comes from TV programming.

 

[ophiuchus]

Hear hear!
Besides, anyone wearing a pink Lunesta hat should be forced to swallow it with a glass of water before bedtime.

 

[fluffie666]

Don't say to much of how you feel on the internet. Big Brother is watching.

 

[jpmcwjr]

jvnshr- OMG, those are gross photos. Far East? Do you know what country?

 

[crashthegrey]

So yeah, this is a disappointing step too far. At least we can still laugh at the ridiculousness of the hat warning label.

 

[fluffie666]

^ Agreed. Thanks for getting my head out of the gutter. And a hearty welcome to you!

I kid you not, my mop bucket has an image of a baby being held upside down with head in bucket and red slash through it. Anyone confused about holding babies heads in a bucket of water?
