I'm asking because sometimes things that seem pretty obvious to most sort of slide by me without my noticing. This leads to great embarrassment and feelings of inadequacy at times, prompting me to always carry a paper bag and make sure it is easily accessible. Not to be sick in, but to put over my head for those groaning moments. Ok, so maybe I exaggerate, but only about the bag.
So I'm asking... Is it really stupid that the Memorex SimpleSave Photo & Video Back-Up Disc that I am currently holding in my hand, anxiously awaiting to use, has a label that is somewhat preventing me from opening the case that reads: "Important: By breaking this seal and using this product you accept the enclosed End User License Agreement. See details inside."
Can you see my conundrum? What if I open the case and I don't accept the End User License Agreement? Haven't I just accepted the agreement by breaking the seal? If I were an obsessive person -- and just because most items in my home still have the "illegal to remove" tags still on them doesn't mean that I am -- I could be paralyzed all day by this label!
So for now, I am going to be compulsive and take a chance, assuming that the agreement doesn't lay claim on any vital internal organs, large amounts of money, or favourite relatives. Perhaps I will just peel the label off and not actually break it, just in case ;)
