I guess the kind that needs to be told not to drink car battery acid. Really crappy cup of coffee though, I wouldn’t expect any better from a hotel room

  1. I’ve not seen the word “Berk” used as an insult in soooo long!

  2. The same Berks who need „May contain nuts“ written on a packet of peanuts…

  4. It’s quite scary to think that the people who need these warnings are walking amongst us

  7. Same people who need to be told not to drink bleach

  8. Americans, because the sue because they are thick and need warnings

  9. It’s probably something to do with the woman who sued McDonald’s because their coffee was way above the temperature it should have been and when she split some on her she had burns to her crotch that were so bad it fused her labia together

  10. Well I once heard a story about someone who said that they’ve had to change their ready meal service because that one didn’t give instructions on how to obtain boiling water. I’m not surprised about anything anymore.

  11. We live in a world where packets of Silica gel have to have the words “Do not eat” written on them.

  12. If it’s anything

    When I was a chef, and I had my fish deliveries, it clearly stated on the box “Contains fish”

    I would’ve been worried if it didn’t

  14. It’s not there to inform, it’s there to reduce liability

  15. I used to laugh at the caution hot water stuff. Then i tried NHS Costa Coffee and didnt realise a liquid could reach those temperatures.

  16. Hey! That’s a Paddy & Scott brew bag. They are bloody expensive!!! We stock them at my work and they’re awesome. I’ve never seen them anywhere else though.

  17. They have to say “contains nuts” on tge side of a packet of peanuts, you’d be surprised the level of idiocy within the population

  18. From the line underneath, I’d assume they didn’t have this. But some twat managed to burn themselves and decided “well hey… There’s no warning… I can totally sue over this”.

  21. The same country that has ‘maximum capacity 1’ on wetsuits.

  22. ..that person who sued a major hot drinks corporation because their drink was hot and it burned them.. and they won…

  23. It’s a piss-take of the woman who sued McDonalds for scalding herself on hot coffee.

    I’m not going into the rights & wrongs of the case, but if you don’t know hot water is hot, then you’re a fucking idiot.

  25. It’s a pisstake. It’s a Paddy and Scott’s brew bags, they have this ‘funny’ attitude on their packaging and stuff.

  26. McDonald’s, repeatedly then tied to vilify the person who was scalded.

  27. In fairness they acknowledge underneath how stupid it is they have to put that.

  28. These types of warnings have been standardised because of Americans and their lawsuits lol

  32. A “right berk”?

    I once read an interview of Michael Caine by a rock magazine. He was asked for an insult that was purely Brit; Americans would never have heard about it.

    Caine then offered right berk and explained where came from. The Berkley Hunt Club and the very bad rhyme.

    That berk? lol
