Let's see....this machine is making a lot of noise and that sharp thing that CUTS THE GRASS INTO SHREDS is spinning really fast.
Maybe I'll keep my hands out of there...seems like it might be prudent..
In fact, don't we really want anyone who just can't assume that it's a bad idea to put your hand into the running lawn mower out of the gene pool?
Oh dear. Jaws is in the water.
ReplyDeleteWe learned that in kindergarten, when they brought in the shredded shoe of another class' student who got his foot caught under the mower. But, you know how it is with lawyers and such. You have to go to greater lengths to idiot proof things because we breed so much better idiots these days.
ReplyDelete"Mother Nature has ways of thinning the herd." Had me on the floor for a minute. Too stupid to live, or far to litigation happy, either way they will make you nuts if you let 'em.
ReplyDeleteYou know, for the sake of consistency, if they're going to put labels like that on lawn mowers, shouldn't they be putting similar labels on garbage disposals?

How about a warning label on ice cream?

Maybe what we need is the Federal government to assume all lawn care duties to protect us weak-minded people. While they are at it, they can install those airport scanners in our yards to detect gophers.
It's a win-win!
