There are so many ridiculous disclaimers out there that I decided to write some (since I’m now selling furniture). These are just for fun:
Section 1078.1 (General Safety Rules):

- Do not place heavy items on your furniture;
- Do not use furniture for anything other than the intended use; and
- Do not place items within 2.84 inches (72.136 mm) of the edges of a table or they may fall, resulting in damage or injury.
Section 1078.24.3 (More of what not to do):

Ooh! I want one!
Entertaining Chris. I like the one about not disposing furniture in fire.

How about: Do not attempt to operate a motor vehicle with furniture in your windshield; it may impair your sight.
