A coworker of mine had a young son -- 2-3 years old when this happened -- who was in the store with his mom. They went to the electronics section, where they had a bunch of TVs on display, all of them playing the same channel.

It's a sign warning you that you shouldn't breathe the fumes produced by welding (probably SMAW).

I hate those kind of instruction. I know the non-verbal warnings are intended to be equally understandable regardless of whether you read any particular language, but sometimes, and some of those are great examples, they're equally confusing even if you'd understand the written language. WTF does the bottom right mean?

One is reminded of the sleeves of floppy discs from Beagle Bros Software back in the 1980s:

"Do not feed this disc to an alligator"?
I also remember, but can't find on Google Images, one that showed the usual stylized "male" and "female" silhouettes used for restrooms, with a line separating the two, and an arrow pointing up on one side and down on the other. People trying to puzzle out what it said suggested, among others, "sex-segregated synagogue" and "purgatory".

No!
No. Thumb is the 5th finger, not the first. The index finger is thus named for a reason.
...But the bartender may have been confused when you raised just your ring finger. From the other side, it can look a lot like the middle finger if you tuck in your thumb.

Well, the fumes are pretty toxic. But if you're close enough to get a good lungful when it goes off, then you're likely to have bigger problems.

That really depends on whether you're big-endian or little-endian.

I'm not sure the little guy was properly briefed on the idea of this photo.
Alternatively they are asking for 2 beers each but a kid wanted 132.
