Due to increasing product liability litigation, American liquor manufacturers have accepted the FDA's suggestion to add more warning labels to their products. Just as the warnings on cigarette packs "rotate" through a variety of cautions, alcohol products will also get one of the following warning notices:

  • WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may leave you wondering what the hell happened to your bra and panties.
  • WARNING: The consumption of alcohol is a major factor in dancing like a retard.
  • WARNING: The consumption of alcohol may lead you to believe that ex-lovers are really dying for you to telephone them at four in the morning.
