When Did People Get So F-ing Stupid?
There have always been stupid people on this planet. Back in the 70's people were buying "Pet Rocks". In the 80's people thought Milli Vanilli were actually singing those songs. Someone in the 90's had the brilliance to give Paula Poundstone her own TV show.
But nowadays, it seems like the human race has gotten so stupid (or perhaps just lazy) that we need to have our hands held for us at all times. The invention of the dishwasher has made it so that we don't have to scrub pots and pans anymore. The telephone later became the cordless phone so we could move around with it, and now it's the cellphone... and it shouldn't even be called a phone because nobody talks in them, they just text each other. There are public toilets that will flush when you get off them so you don't have to touch the dirty flushing handle. Now, I know these are all advancements in technology that have made our lives a little easier, and in some ways more practical. As much as I don't like texting on a cellphone, that's not why I'm writing this.
This is all about two incredibly asinine ideas that make me wonder why we are even born at all. Take a look.
 
Yup. I'm talking about the world of instructions. Those are pictures I took of instructions on how to open the chocolate bars I bought from the corner store. Who is the fucking idiot that needs instructions on how to open a candy wrapper? If you're old enough to read the instructions, then I'm sure you've opened candy wrappers before. Whoever was foolish enough to put this label on the candy wrapper needs to suck a horse's left nut.
Next, we have the bottom of a Kleenex box. I found this at random when I was cleaning up one day and dropped the box on the floor. I had never thought to look at the bottom of a Kleenex box before. Little did I know there would be instructions on how to use tissues. Perhaps there should be a college major all about the proper techniques of blowing your nose. As stupid as I think this set of instructions is, at least they tell you to wash your hands after. That's more than I can say for the candy bar wrappers.
Normally, I'd ask for people to send me in pics of more crazy labels/instructions to have a laugh at. But this time, I really don't want to see them. I just don't want to admit that our society has gotten so totally retarded.
