The winners are out in the annual Michigan Lawsuit Abuse Watch Wacky Warning Label contest.

This year’s first prize goes to a toilet brush, with a warning label reading:  “Do Not Use for personal hygiene”.

Second prize was won by children’s scooter that reads “This product moves when used”.

Third prize (this should have done better than 3rd) was a digital thermometer that reads (are you ready?):  “Once used rectally, the thermometer should not be used orally”.

Little Miss Hooters

Sekimori has taken pictures of a Hooters in Florida that is holding a “Little Miss Hooters” contest. Stacy found this herself and took the pictures. She didn’t reveal the exact franchise involved.

Apparently, Stacy called them to ask about it. The contest is for girls age 5 and UNDER, who will be dressed in spandex orange shorts and a tied-up Hooters T-Shirt.

This is just depraved. Small children are NOT sex objects. Feel free to let Hooters know what you think at Hooters PR Department. I will be doing the same.

UPDATE: I got the following response:

Thank you for expressing your concern regarding the contest in Florida. A store manager decided to host an event for the employee’s children which is not a part of Hooters National Marketing promotions, and has been cancelled.

Best regards,
