Warning Labels

I think people should come with warning labels. Seriously. If you saw their "warning label" you would know how to proceed when talking with them.

For instance, ever had one of those friends who's 10 minute story turns into like 40 and you never really get to the point? Exactly. If said friend had a warning label that said, oh say "Danger. No point ahead." you'd know to prepare yourself. And/or learn to take seriously large amounts of drugs prior to seeing friend.

Or say for instance you had a friend who at any given moment could jump emotions on you without warning. You know the type...the moody ones or aka bi-polar. If said friend had a warning label that said, "Caution - talking to this person may result in uncertain and unexplainable emotional leaps ahead" - you'd be able to prepare yourself.

Or say you have a friend who angers easily when discussing Republicans and HE's A republican. In this case, a simple dunce cap should suffice...but still, you'd be warned.

Or what about that aggressive driver on the road...if he had a warning sign you'd know not to cut him off and risk being shot.

Or an agry boss, a scorned lover, a neglected friend...the list could go on. I'm just saying.....

You know you have some...think of some creative Warning Labels and post a comment.

Mine would say, "WARNING: He's gonna make you read it."

So, what prompted this one? Did you run into someone without a label... and can you tell us without getting into trouble???

"WARNING: You're about to hear the same story over and over and over..." But I love her quite dearly.

The thing is, I am not usually aware of what to label them until its too late. If they wore a label, I would never be too late. = )
