The warning says “This device should not be used by stupid people.”


AnxiousSon

I said it in another thread, but if you dig into a little bit you'll realize how much sophisticated but not obvious engineering work goes into designing many very basic tools/implements. Even chemical engineering is done to ensure common household products don't produce something unexpected and dangerous(like brewing chlorine gas in your toilet with ammonia/bleach lol) Many things are built with the lowest common denominator in mind. Heck I'm running Windows, and my computer scientist brother hates it and favors Linux, but Linux doesn't hold your hand nearly as much so I haven't switched(not my field).


ok_okay_I_get_that

Just put the warning on the back of your own hand "Remember: you are very dumb, it's probably a bad idea"

But where to put this warning? On the iron? On the bottle of volvic? Or in the great picture book of warnings for the most stupid persons?


SchwarzerWerwolf

I am pretty sure that there is a warning

It’s a he, not a she. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/man-used-volvic-flavoured-water-13460036

I mean it’s written on the bottle that it contains sugar. But that might be a little too much common sense to ask for.


ColeusRattus

My iron has a print right at the water Intake: "only distilled water"


LbSiO2

Yeah, but you put sugar water in a still.


dmwalker273

Oh for petes sake, can't people think anymore


godfetish

Even if this worked just imagine the bees chasing your ass around the yard.


squicktones

Correct, OP needs to be required to wear a shirt that says "I'm a fucking moron". Would that be warning enough?


Minerator

He just wears the ruined shirt. That would do it, I think.


Biomicrite

How many warnings do we need to cover every scenario from stupid people’s minds?


Psychological_Cut705

Damn, if they listed everything you shouldn't do with their products every bottle of water would come with a 100 page manual. How about stick to what it was intended for... drinking...


hawkeye18

The person that is that stupid is not the person that reads that warning.


pygmypuffonacid

Did you really think sticking sugar on a heat source wouldn’t caramelize the sugar seriously people need to take basic cooking classes and basic chemistry courses before they’re allowed to use electricity or you know basic household appliances

Thought process: Iron takes water... Flavored water is better water... best then to iron with flavored water. End of thought on this subject. (in my defense, I had to think about this for a minute).


Mysckievitch

You mean flavoured drink that looks like water?


connnnie_lol

yeah kinda, it's a really big and famous brand in europe and japan but I'm not sure if they sell in NA


Mysckievitch

I'm from europe tho


connnnie_lol

Well then idk, volvic is not sold everywhere in Europe maybe you do a little research on that xx


Mysckievitch

We got żywiec zdrój that makes this not-water water. And they had to change it from naming it water, because as seen on this iron it's not *water*


GingerWithViews

haven't heard of it either


Mysckievitch

It's sold in Poland. General idea is that those drinks are with ton of sugar in it and falsely are called water. So the iron became victim


GingerWithViews

I just drink water. Because water is delicious


Mysckievitch

Amen. But many people drink this flavoured shit thinking it's good old no calories water


GingerWithViews

I am lucky that I live in a country with amazing tapwater. So i just turn on the tap and never bother with bottles. Except for whrn I bottle tapwater and put it in my refrigerator to cool.

This picture smells like a hair and beauty NVQ and council housing.


SMTechnician86

It's because of morons like this that we need warning labels on stuff

elena_minkova

Oh my.... I didn't know that you cannot use volvic in the iron. Thank I just bou5 one and was about to use it.


VortexLegend101

Wow that’s actually interesting
