No, I don't mean labels as in labelling someone, but in labels in kids clothes and on food. While I was feeding Emily this evening I glanced at her bib and, in big red letters, it said "KEEP AWAY FROM FIRE". No shit Sherlock, it's a child's bib. If you're the kind of person who plans to let a small baby play with fire, then perhaps child-rearing isn't going to be your thing.
Stating the obvious always gets my goat, but some labels make me chuckle rather than get cross, like the bib one did. I saw a great label on a bottle of chocolate milk the other day, and it said "Once opened, treat as ordinary milk". So I did. Makes a cup of Earl Grey taste really odd though.
