Disclaimers and Warning Labels

Have you ever thought that people should come with disclaimers or warning labels?

i just think it would be handy to have all of your chips laid out on the table so that people could really choose best whether or not to hang around you or not.
such as:
lacks the capacity to pick up on most subtleties, please be fairly obvious to avoid misunderstandings, in case of continued obliviousness please just be direct and spell it out.
not that everyone hides this kind of stuff, it's just it doesn't always come up immediately. at least if you knew you could be better prepared for it, and realistically it does take a while for peole to truly be themselves with people, as generally, one will put their best foot forward.


it would be so much easier, but i guess that's part of the joy of getting to know people. you slowly get to know or see their warning labels and you can choose if you want to continue to stay but sometimes it would just be easier to know right away to avoid some unpleasant situations that may come up, but then again i guess we learn things through those and perhaps learn to read people better about that specific trait, or then again perhaps not.
