There are a lot of stupid people out there.

There was a mother whose kids were fan of Harry Potter, so she went to the bookstore. What she thought was a Harry Potter book was "Barry Trotter: The Unauthorized Parody". :lol:

It was too vulgar for her kids. I'm sure she would have noticed it wasn't Harry Potter the omment she took it off the shelf. Was she blind or something? I'm sure she's going to sue because she was "embarrased". People like her shouldn't be having kids in the first place.

Know any dispays of human stupidity that are even dumber than that?

There is a tag on hairdriers :Do not use in the shower.

I almost had a stroke figuring the need for that one.

Did a huge google search found nada...
Just another urban legend.

If you're dumb enough to do that you deserve to be mutilated.

Anytime some teenager replicates a stunt on Jackass and gets hurt, I think that qualifies.

However, the all time most annoying one for me, is the lady who sued McDonalds after gettting burned because she put a cup of hot coffee in between her legs while driving.

I still can't believe the woman got away with that. It's ridiculous. Isn't it kinda obvious that coffee is hot?

The labels put on Batman costumes sold at Wal-Mart, warning that "wearing of cape does not allow user to fly"

Good. They're easy targets, but it takes forever to hunt them all down. Much better for them to be all in one place, then.

The lady who got $28 billion from that tobacco lawsuit.

The thing is that most of the warning labels that people find stupid are there do prevent the stupid lawsuits that have already come about. They're there because it's easier than dealing with a lawsuit. Remember how idiotic those can be. Looks at "Guy sues fast food joints for making him fat" case.

There was a woman who was killed with her 3 year-old daughter when they were walking down train tracks, and a train ran them over. :lol:

And any case where someone has with a pie, pumpkin, traffic cone, chicken, or cat has sunk pretty low. I believe is a better word, since if I don't, I'm insisting that the pie, pumpkin, traffic cone, chicken, or cat has sunk to the point where it would agree to have with him.

Then, there are those animal rights wackos that won't eat honey so they "don't opress the worker bees".

There are people who ride motorcycles while talking on a cell phone and holding coffee between their legs out there.

How about the drunk guys who stole a landmine and decided to play Russian Roulette with it? :D
