Most of us don't really take the time to pay careful attention to the product instructions we receive when purchasing an item - however, you should. If not for the instructions themselves, at least for the hidden easter eggs.

Bored Panda has created a list of the funniest instructions and tags you'll be glad you bothered to read. Some of them are so obvious and stupid they'll make you question where humanity is going. Others are so unexpectedly smart and witty, they will surprise you with their originality. One thing is for sure, most of them will put a smile on your face.
