It is important to take heed of the warning signs in life. Sure, there are people who like to live to the beat of their own drum, take life in their stride, and just generally be a renegade badass.
And sure, while it can feel quite cool and liberating to be a rebel, there are some warning signs that are just there for your own good. For instance, there’s nothing cool about having a burning backside, and nor is there anything cool about being killed by deer falling from the sky (all will be explained later). So, without further ado, here are 15+ people who don’t need to be told twice!

They’re Not Wrong
Wait, so people are getting fellated by vacuums as well now? First trains and now this, what is the world coming to?
Heed The Warning
Never come in between a person and their fabric scissors. I mean, if they’re insane enough to need fabric scissors, then they’re capable of anything.
“My manager went out on his boat this weekend.”
I wonder how many times that he heard this today before he had to resort to putting this sign up.
Shut The Door
I know that there is a funny and important message right there, but it is telling that all I can focus on the Magners and Doritos sour cream and chive dip. That’s the making of a great night in right there.
“But no warnings about leopards…?”
Imagine if the cause of your death was being crushed by a falling deer. You really wouldn’t be able to look anyone in the eye in the afterlife due to the embarrassment.
“My tattoo guy said ‘that’s not a tattoo you copy, it’s a tattoo you earn’.”
Now that is a pretty cool tattoo! I can’t help but hear Eric Idle singing the theme tune to the sitcom “One Foot In The Grave” when I look at it though.
Mistakes Were Made
I like to think that this cat has realized its mistake and will never do this again; but, if I know cats, then I know that it will be five minutes before this cat gets itself back into this same situation.

Can you imagine if you accidentally sent this message to the wrong seat? Just some little old man getting this out of nowhere.
Do you Fear Death?
Regardless of whether I believed in rebirth or not, I wouldn’t fancy dying by being mauled to pieces by a tiger. I feel like that would sting a bit.

“Listen up kids!”
Jesus, I wonder what the other 145 STDs are out there in the wild. Also, why did they have to ruin Pokemon? Just say “Don’t get these STDs etc…” I don’t think the inclusion of a Pokemon theme is going to help.
“Our 6 year old ‘ran away’ yesterday so we told him we love him and to come back if he needs anything. He came back and took the cat.”
This a pretty clear indication of who your kid values most in the house. Also, I love how the cat is just looking befuddled by the whole situation.
“Went through the taco bell drive-thru with a friend. When asked if we wanted sauce, I said: ‘As much as you’re allowed to give.’ May have made a mistake.”
Looks like they’re going to be having Diablo sauce on absolutely everything for the time being!

I really don’t think that this is going to help get the religious folks in; however, it is certainly an interesting business model for a bible store to go after the atheist market, very novel indeed!

I think that the picture does a lot of the translating work for you if you’re struggling. They really pumped the gas on this warning label, didn’t they?

Oh Google, there’ll be no avoiding paying this… not that I am in any way suggesting that Google avoids paying anything else.
“The toilet stopped flushing. He felt obligated to warn the innocent.”
I’m going to go out on a limb here and assume that the person who left this note is no longer the “favorite son” for the foreseeable future.
Sobriety Proven
Although, if he’s a good enough juggler to do it drunk, then I’d still give him a round of applause.

I mean, the lesson is probably to keep the nip in a safe, because that cat is seeing sound now and has zero regrets.

I mean, come on! That is just asking for trouble! I can imagine this has lead to a lot of embarrassing trips to buy carrots in the past.
“I have a second job at a flower shop. They made the mistake of letting me create the sign today.”

I can only imagine how annoying it must get to constantly be told something obvious about yourself.
“If only all warnings were this honest.”
Natural selection is a harsh mistress. One other service employee shared this story:
“I work fast food, and the other day we had a lady come up and complain that she burned her finger on her grilled cheese because it was hot. None of us knew how to break the news to her that a grilled cheese is supposed to be hot.”
Sometimes, A Second Note Is Actually Required
Apparently, this is a common problem at truck stops. Now, I understand that sometimes you’ve got to go and there isn’t a safe place to stop for a while, but if you’re going to piss in a bottle, then it’s your job to dispose of it properly.
“So my grade 5 son had his “the birds and the bees” lesson at school today. Needless to say he wasn’t impressed.”
That third question is 1000% a mood.

Never trust a sibling with an unflattering pic.

This is definitely a situation where spare keys in a safe location are a must!
“Someone in my office learned a very harsh lesson.”
They must have eaten something spectacularly unusual to have to resort to using anti-bacterial wipes to clean themselves!
“Kool aid man strikes again.”
If we’ve told that guy once, we’ve told him a million times. It is not okay to burst through people’s walls out of nowhere, that’s how you can end up on a register.
Last year’s holiday party must have been a disaster.
What did Murphy do to the appetizers that required being locked in a room away from the guests this time around?

My immediate response is to think that this cam is terribly evil. However, I also can’t help but think that this is the kind of thing that I would do as a joke when I was a kid!
