So I was in cl@ss the other day and we were doing anassignment and we came across a list of warnings and direction. They are funny. Sorry if some are repeated.
These are warnings and directions from actual products. They are unintentionally funny because there is something illogical about each of them. If you make the correct inferences, you understand why they are funny.
