Oh, this was fun. It's Michigan's Lawsuit Abuse Watch site, and it holds a contest each year for the wackiest warning labels. This years winner was a massage chair that contains this warning:

"Do not use massage chair without clothing... and, Never force any body part into the backrest area while the rollers are moving."

Ha! Some others from the previous contests:


A warning on an electric router made for carpenters cautions: “This product not intended for use as a dental drill.”


A warning label found on a baby stroller cautions the user to “Remove child before folding”


A sticker on a toilet at a public facility in Ann Arbor, Michigan actually warns: “Recycled flush water unsafe for drinking.”


A CD player carries this unusual warning: “Do not use the Ultradisc2000 as a projectile in a catapult.”


A label on a hand-held massager advises consumers not to use “while sleeping or unconscious”


A container of underarm deodorant says, “Caution: Do not spray in eyes”


A cartridge for a laser printer warns, “Do not eat toner”


A 13-inch wheel on a wheelbarrow warns: “Not intended for highway use”


A cardboard car sunshield that keeps sun off the dashboard warns, “Do not drive with sunshield in place”


A warning on a pair of shin guards manufactured for bicyclists says: “Shin pads cannot protect any part of the body they do not cover.”


A box of birthday cake candles says: “DO NOT use soft wax as ear plugs or for any other function that involves insertion into a body cavity.”
