Dilute To Taste.


Before Sir Isaac Newton "discovered" gravity, things were up in the air.
If I look at bottle of shampoo that states, "For oily hair", does that mean it gives me oily hair?
Dilute to taste fruit juice.
I read on a bottle of fruit juice, "Dilute to taste."  Does that mean if I don't dilute it, I can't taste it?  I know, concentrate.  Perhaps doubly so.
Why are "free range" products not free? 
Note that 3 out of 4 bums, sorry, mums prefer the above brand.  You might also note that gender stereotypes persist in Britain.  New, easy start roll.  Exciting news for dogs and cats.

When I read, "New, improved toilet paper."  I most certainly hope it's new.  Imagine, "Used, improved toilet paper." Maybe "recycled" bog roll, loo roll. aka asswipe, is used toilet paper.  I shudder at the thought.
I went to a "Farmer's Market."  No farmers were for sale.  
When I go to an automated teller machine that boasts, "Free cash machine", why doesn't it give me free cash?

I went up to the checkout at the supermarket.  I noticed that the person before me put their debit card into a special machine.  The cashier asked the person, "Would you like cash back?  Much to my surprise, the customer stated, "No thanks."  When it came to my turn, I figured I'd use my debit card.  "Would you like cash back?" asked the cashier.   I responded, "Very generous of the supermarket.  I would like a thousand pounds, please."  "Oh no, sir!", she giggled, "It comes out of your bank account."  

 One time in the supermarket, the lady cashier said to me, "We've run out of grocery bags.  Do you have a car with you?"  To which I replied, "Yes I do.  However, I don't think it will fit through the supermarket doors."

    No free cash? That is false advertising!
    What did the other mum recommend?

    Hey Alex,

    How did you do that? You've commented seconds after I posted. I'm getting real scared now :) It is deffo false advertising. The other mum recommended Charmin. Squeeze time.

      Plenty of points to ponder. I absolutely hate the gender stereotypes. I even sent an email to the publicity manager of a certain British supermarket named, "Iceland". "That's why busy mums go to Iceland." is one of their slogans. The email back was nothing short of a joke.

    If a tin with a picture of peas on the side has peas in it, and a tin with beans on it has beans inside, what does a tin with picture of a dog contain?

    And if there's sacks of complete food for dogs, with vitamins and minerals, and sacks of a complete diet for cats, with nutrients and amino acids, why can't we buy sacks full of complete child food, with everything a growing child needs (and a free toy)?

    I'd ask my dad to take me to McDonald's for a shake. He'd pick me up-shake me and smile. Why leave home when you can have a shake at home? I can't imagine what a boring job the copy-writer at the paper company must have. One day he'll lose it and put, "Improved, recycled and mostly clean for mums."

      Hi Eve,

      That's you, right? Your new blog? Shake, rattle and roll. Your dad was a mover and a shaker :)

      Those folks who do the adds for the paper companies, used to work for Xerox. Do you copy...

    I'm changing your name to Literal Gary. Of course, now I'll be out looking for more labels, signs etc. to contribute to your post. As if my life isn't complicated enough! Sheesh.

      Dear celebrity type person, Lee,

      I literally typed off the top of my head with this reply. Look out for literal labels, Lee. I'm changing your name to "Literal Label Lee." A new nom de plume for you. I'm sending you some "Kickapoo Joy Juice."

      Sheesh n' stuff,

      Gary :)

      I love the name. Let's put an accent over the bel in Label and give it an international flavor.

    Hey mate,

    I chose this very British greeting in honor of your whacky post (not that I expect you to assassinate an Italian light pole) but I actually recognized some of the products you featured and it brought back some memories of living in Blighty, what!

    Sorry I haven't been around lately, George, but you know I can never forget you :)

    "Cheers big ears!"

      Hey, me old mucker, Mazza,

      Thank you, mate. Although, you spelt "honour" as "honor." :) Tsk, tsk, old chap. I think we should send you some Marmite. I'm sure you are a Marmite lover.

      You have been a busy fellow sorting out your Angels, your coconut bra and your smoking hot grass skirt. I do understand, my illustrious friend.

      I shall now leave for awhile and go down the "apples and pears."

      Cheers, Noddy!

      Hi Kim,

      When I was a kid, I thought babies were bought in a baby shop. It would be so much easier if we really could get free cash from a free cash machine. Imagine the line-ups in Duluth! :)

I do try to comment back to each commenter individually. However, I might have to shorten my replies or give a group thank you. That way, I can spend more time commenting on your blogs. Thank you and peace, my friend.
