Friday Funnies! Are We Really That Stupid?

friday funnies

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!

I’m ready to laugh today, so help me out and link up your funnies. Just make sure they are family friendly. You can link up a funny story, video, picture etc.

 

My funny today came with the purchase of this lamp.

What? You see nothing funny with this lamp?

My hubby purchased this lamp for his desk. No, that’s not the funny part.

THIS is the funny part.

These are the “instructions” for the lamp.

First let me point out that it’s in 3 languages.

Are you ready to get started? Have you found your language preference? Good. Let’s begin!

Read carefully this is important!

Got it?

Okay. Let’s look at the parts list to make sure we have everything. Take your time. You wouldn’t want to mess this up.

You okay? Are you sure? You wouldn’t want to move on without making sure you had your LAMP in front of you. You know, Part A.

Here’s where it gets complicated. Don’t rush this.

Reread if you need to. You wouldn’t want to make a mistake here. That part is crucial.

But don’t worry, you have plenty of time because apparently this can take anywhere from 2-5 minutes to accomplish.

I’m pretty sure my hubby did this in about 20 seconds.

Did we really need 2 pages to tell us to screw in a light bulb?

Which brings me to my earlier question. Are we really that stupid?


This cracked me up so I just had to share. Have you ever come across something like this?

HAVE A FABULOUS DAY MY FRIENDS!!

  4. Wow! LOL! That is hilarious! It is for those that think the light bulb is already included. Does it tell you how to turn it on, too?

  6. Kim, that was AWESOME!!! Thanks so much for sharing! I had an ink pen in high school that had a sticker on it that said "To remove ink, keep writing" How do they come up with these things?!

  7. Seriously?
    Sad to think, though, that there really may be people out there who would need those instructions...and might have to read them more than once.
    Thanks for a good giggle this morning!
    Peace and blessings.
