Obviously as a man I don't need to read the instruction manual when I buy something new but when I purchased a new data cable yesterday I was curious as to what the 'Instruction Manual' could tell me.
This 'Manual' consisted of a single piece of paper less than 4 inches long x just over 1 inch high, folded into three, each fold printed in a different language, English, Japanese & Turkish.
On the front of each 'page' there was a greeting from the manufacturer followed by:
"To ensure a long service life and optimum functionality of the product we recommend you to review this manual entirely and follow the instructions"
On the reverse on each page was written the following instruction:
"Charge your device and transfer data"
So I'm going back to not bothering to read the instructions!
