This is the warning on the blood pressure monitor my dad just got. Exceptional work. Anybody know what the fuck it’s supposed to mean? Last line is especially ominous.

    1. Please read the operating manual before using.

    2. Remove this film before using.

    3. The Holy Hand Gernade of Antioch.

    4. Careful where you place this. It can feel like a lot of pressure on your arm.

    5. Not a life saving device (not for use as a tourniquet).

    #2 is good. #3 is a near favorite. #4 has charm. But this is my favorite…

    5. Don’t be so careful in time of death.

    This is somehow a mix of English and weirdly transliterated Russian. “Pacclambech” is “Расслабьтесь” which means relax.

    The whole third step means something like “Relax not less than 10 minutes before measuring pressure. Between two measurements — not more than five minutes

      Probably Russian text was scanned and run through Google Translate. Some words were scanned as if they were in English and never fixed.

      I assume the last line is essentially saying to not worry about all the steps/setup if you’re in a life threatening situation?

      Pretty good advice either way though.

    Apparently if you’re too cautious while dying bad things happen?

    Joe Biden writing blood pressure cuff instructions in his time off. Even former presidents have to keep working in this economy! Yikes!

    Last line is especially ominous.

    If I had to guess I’d say if you got someone actually dying maybe worry less about the cuff blowing up and more about that
