Storks on strike, FedEx moves in

This was stuck on the underside of the lid of a laundry basket I picked up at a garage sale. I'm sure there are bigger issues to deal with than just the risk of suffocation. What about sorting out those over-protective motherly cravings that drive you to shut your kid in a box in the first place. Why don't you build a nest, put him in it and sit on him with your post-natal fatass while you're at it?

Oh, and about the sticker placement...what, you want them to actually place the baby inside the box, and when they're on the verge of putting the lid on, they see it and go, "damn". Honestly, if your demographic includes baby-boxing-boneheads, then put the sticker on the outside. Hell, get a midget (not a baby, that would just be wrong) to pop out of the box after shipping and stick it to their damn faces.

ROTFL.. nice find, and nicely put. Folks here take 'goes without saying' statements to a whole new level. Heard these?

On a Dr. Pepper bottle.

"(!)WARNING: CONTENTS UNDER PRESSURE. CAP MAY BLOW OFF CAUSING EYE OR OTHER SERIOUS INJURY. POINT AWAY FROM PEOPLE, ESPECIALLY WHILE OPENING."

Found on the inside of a pull top lid of a liquid radiator sealant:

"Caution: DO NOT LICK LID"

Like you said, the least they need to do is to get the sticker placement right. Keep them coming, sire.

lol, now placing the dr pepper warning under the cap would be brilliant.
