Wizzy’s Wackyweed.....HELL ON WHEELS |
What’s Is On a “Label”
Let’s talk about something that annoys the hell out of me shall we? Besides the dorkwad trailer park trash you see on the TV show “COPS” who think its funny to be on TV while yelling ‘HI MOM’ to the camera or another favorite is the ones who have this tiny habit of lying.... but those are for another ramble... no, this ones about LABELS....
They drive me NUTS!
Have you ever stopped to read a label? There is a million and one type of labels. From the label in your underwear, to the one in your bra that tells the truth at what size you are, to labels on bottles, to labels on our own bodies! Before I get to far let me explain how this ramble got started! A friend of mine at work brought me in a bottle of flavored water, they were new ones on the market and she thought we should try them. So while slaving the day away Cathie and I talked about the flavored waters an stuff when I noticed the label on the bottle.... and it got me to thinking.
Heres what mine said....
Endurance,
Caution: usage may result in increased stamina (No, not that way!) Further note: professional athletes have not endorsed this product. Therefore, excessive use will not lead you to have a desire to be like Mike, Magic or even Ned. (WHO THE HELL IS NED??I wondered?)
Vitamins + water = what’s in your hand.
One sip, swig, or gulp may result in boycott of other beverages.

Ok fine an dandy.... I decided I had to read Cathie’s, now her bottle about killed me.....
Heres what hers said....
Power C,
Despite having the word “dragon” in its name, no actual dragons were harmed in the making of this product. However, with the 250% of the RDI if vitamin C inside, the fruit wasn’t so lucky! With that said, we’d also like to inform some of you that dragons are actually imaginary. That means they don’t exist! So please, pleeeease, stop sending us nasty letters, thank you!
Vitamins + water = what’s in your hand.

Now her label about made me spit my drink out as it was written for some F.F.H.L. who can’t grasp the truth!
So, next time you twist the top of a Sobe, a Propel, a Vitaminwater or another other bottle read the label and see what you will find!
Off topic here but labels on bottles are like disclaimers, they give you an idea of what you are about to consume!
READ THEM!
Speaking of disclaimers, another label that REALLY bugs the snot out of me, is the following,
(A)=Alternative, (G)=General, (MJ)=Mel & Janice, (P)=Poems
(U)=Uber, (XG)=Xena & Gabrielle, (O)=Original, (C)=Conqueror
(PWP)=Plot What Plot or as I like to call them....SMUT!!!
I've read all I can about these classifications but I mean its all in the readers mind on what listing they should fall under. Another label ifin ya ask me, but on an IM the other night some one said she would not read a story unless it was classed under a certain section. Come on ya F.F.H.L. your missing the boat here, I my self as of late have read a few damned good PWP’s! But to each their own I guess.
OO OO OO how about label’s on pillows that crinkle under your ear at night? I cut those sumbitches off soon as I get them home!
I shall never for get the trick I played on my roomie had years ago now. I removed each an every label off the can goods in the cupboard! That is AFTER I threw out the cans of peas! I can’t stand them! Anywhoo it was a surprise each night for supper on what we would have with our meal! She wasn’t too happy to have home made thick chicken dumplin’ soup with Campbell’s beef veggie soup!
There is nothing in this world that don’t have a label on it in some fashion or another. So when you find a label (or disclaimer) read it an you might get a chuckle or two from it!
For as with anything in life laughter is the best medicine!

On a side note here.... I have been thinkin of not doin a ramble but maybe every other month or maybe just stopping altogether....is anyone out there reading this junk??? Let me know what you would like to see on this page or any ideas of things you would like to see covered!
