I Want To Escape From The Confusion

I don't mean in my head, I mean in the world around me. I don't like it when things haven't been thought through. For instance, I have some double cream substitute in my fridge and on the carton it says, "Lasts longer once opened". Now I'm reasonably sure they're implying that it lasts longer than cream does (once opened), but that has to be implied. If you look at the words themselves, it suggests that it lasts longer if you open it than if you leave it sealed until you need it.

I feel the same about drinks being offered "ice cold". If they were as cold as ice, they'd be ice. And I can't drink ice!

@ GlassDog - am channeling inner Vulcan to moderate reply - she's not a very good Vulcan though, maybe half Vulcan or a Romulan in Vulcan clothing.
Wow... the humidity is insane there! It sounds like a trip to the grocery store is in order. You could stand in the chilled dairy section. You might want to put on some clothes first... or not.
