Flytrap Warning Sign

STOP! DO NOT TOUCH!! If you are not a fly, please do not trigger the Flytraps, as this will cause them to digest themselves and eventually die. If you are a fly, please ignore this message - but proceed with caution.

A blue warning sign beside flytrap plants tells humans not to trigger the traps because they may digest themselves and die, while flies are told to ignore the warning but proceed carefully. The absurd role reversal and overly specific safety message make it funny as a reaction to bizarre or self-defeating instructions.
