In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed through stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods:
On a Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping. ( I have no other time to dry my hair).
On a bag of Fritos:! ..You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside. (the shoplifter special)?
On a bar of Dial soap: ';Directions: Use like regular soap.'; (and that would be how???....)
On some Swanson frozen dinners: ';Serving suggestion: Defrost.'; ( But, it's ';just'; a suggestion).
On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom): ';Do not turn upside down.'; (well.... a bit late huh?)
On Marks %26amp; Spencer Bread Pudding: ';Product will be hot after heating.'; (...nahhh... Really??...)
On packaging for a Rowenta iron: ';Do not iron clothes on body.'; (but wouldn't this save me more time?)
On Boot's Children Cough Medicine: ';Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication.'; (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5-year-olds with head-colds off those forklifts.)
On Nytol Sleep Aid: ';Warning: May cause drowsiness.'; (and.. .I'm taking this because???....)
On most brands of Christmas lights: ';For indoor or outdoor use only.'; (as opposed to... what?)
On a Japanese food processor: ';Not to be used for the other use.'; (now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious.)
On Sunsbury's peanuts: ';Warning: contains nuts.'; (talk about a news flash)
On an American Airlines packet of nuts: ';Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts.'; (Step 3: maybe, uh...fly Delta?)
On a child's superman costume: ';Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly.'; (I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)
On a Swedish chainsaw: ';Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals.'; (..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)Only in america..?

..I know why they don't make the aeroplanes out of the black box crap, its because it would be to heavy for an aeroplane to lift off.
I can answer the one about the typewriters. When typewriters were first invented, it was found that some people could type fast enough to have the keys jam. Remember, the machines were mechanical with the levers rising to strike the ribbon. The current keyboard was configured to slow down the typist long enough for the letter arms to clear each other. The configuration has stayed this way out of habit.
