Unintended Humor In Labels

Simply Sleep

I believe I’ve mentioned it on my blog, but in case you missed it, I suffer periodically from insomnia. On some occassions when my insomnia kicks in I take over-the-counter sleeping pills. One brand I recently tried and found works well for me is Simply Sleep. I tend to be a good and responsible consumer and read the instructions fairly throroughly. However on the label from Simply Sleep the following is found:

Simply Sleep
GEE, YA THINK SO?!?

I would HOPE the product would make me drowsy. That IS a component of getting to sleep, isn’t it? Yeah, it’s a silly warning, but you know some mentally-deficient yahoo probably filed a lawsuit thinking it WOULDN’T make him drowsy as he drove home. Or something equally as foolish.

Silly disclaimers and warnings are abundant on products nowadays. Most likely due to lawsuits and threatened lawsuits.

A big welcome to all the readers from Woman Honor Thyself, The Crazy Rants Of Samantha Burns, The Bullwinkle Blog, Stuck On Stupid, The HILL Chronicles, Pirate’s Cove, The Blue Star Chronicles and Stop The ACLU.

    Thanks, Angel. I actually got to bed, albeit a little late, and managed to fall asleep (even though it took about an hour to do so).
