  • Warnings, Disclaimers, and Literary Theory
    Reading the Product: Warnings, Disclaimers, and Literary Theory Laura A. Heymann* I. INTRODUCTION Few television commercials for alcohol end with the protagonist slumped unconscious on the couch, falling off a bar stool, or driving a car into a telephone pole. To the contrary, as many of us have experienced, advertising writes a very different narrative: that purchase and consumption of the advertised beverage will make one more attractive, expand one's social circle, and yield unbridled happiness. It is a story that, the advertiser hopes, will inspire consumers to choose its beverage during the next trip to the store; in this vein, the true protagonist of the commercial is the brand. Marketing scholars and, to a lesser extent, trademark scholars have increasingly viewed advertising and branding through the lens of literary theory, recognizing that consumers interpret communications about a product using many of the same tools that they use to interpret other kinds of texts.1 But this lens has not been similarly focused on an important counternarrative: the warning or disclaimer (such as "Caution: This product may contain nuts" on a candy bar or "Not authorized by * Associate Professor of Law, College of William & Mary - Marshall-Wythe School of Law.

  • 14. Products Liability
    14. Products Liability “Happy Fun Ball! … Get one today! Warning: Pregnant women, the elderly, and children under 10 should avoid prolonged exposure to Happy Fun Ball. Caution: Happy Fun Ball may suddenly accelerate to dangerous speeds. … Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.” – Saturday Night Live, 1991 Introduction We live in a consumer society, where all of us are constantly bombarded with marketing aimed at getting us to buy more stuff. In America’s early days, what we now think of as “products” were rarities. Items used in the household were commonly handmade by a member of that household. People made their own clothing, canned their own fruit, and built their own furniture. Other items were made in one-off fashion by craftspeople – cobblers made shoes, coopers made barrels, blacksmiths made hardware. Mass manufacturing changed all that. In 1893, the first Sears Roebuck & Company catalog was distributed, offering for sale jewelry and watches, and by the next year, saddles, bicycles, baby carriages, firearms, clothing, and many other items. Today, we are dependent in our modern lives on an uncountable multitude of commercial firms to provide us with the items we use minute by minute. And many of these products have the potential to hurt us. When things go wrong, doctrines of products liability determine who can be held liable. Multiple Theories of Recovery for Products Liability There are multiple ways for a plaintiff to sue for damages stemming from a product. Three in particular are important: warranty, negligence, and strict products liability. A plaintiff might sue on all three theories in the same lawsuit.

    . A Collection of Sacred Magick | The Esoteric Library | www.sacred-magick.com 23 Apples of Eris Introduction Well, here it is - the closest thing youre going to get to the real Principia Discordia without actually going out and stealing a copy... and its totally free of charge (so just pre- tend you stole it, we wont tell)! We scanned every page of the Loompanics Edition of the Principia Discordia and yanked out everything we could not reproduce with text in PageMaker. I swear, this file couldnt be much smaller than it is right now and still cover the entire Principia. We got into an argument among ourselves as to whether or not to include the Steve Jackson Games editions pages at the end of this document, and after much biting and spitting, we decided to. It makes the file bigger and were not exactly fans of Steve Jack- son (who steals Discordian imagery, like any good Discordian would, but then turns around and copyrights them), but we figured some of you might want to see those additional pages enough to go out and purchase a copy, and wed rather give it to you. If you want us to illegally reproduce anything else they do, let us know and we will attempt to procure and reproduce. Anyway, other than those pages, everything else has been yanked out of the Loompanics edition of the Principia, and everything is as close to the original as we could make it, spelling errors and all. When we couldnt find a font that was in the original, we chose the next closest thing or used the image instead.
