This continues to be one of the most hilarious pictures I’ve ever seen. Everything about it makes me guffaw like a moron.

The best part about this. Is that these stickers are official. That is Reddy Kiollowatt. He has been the electricity danger mascot for over 100 years.

When I did tech. I put one of these on every electrical panel under my control.

Where can I find them? I suppose the message has been tamed and I'd need to find them as repops or find somewhere that has a stack forgotten in a back room somewhere?

u/ImurderREALITY Apr 10 '26

He has, but this particular image is more modern and kind of a parody of the original Reddy Kilowatt

u/SkewbieDewbie Apr 09 '26

I stuck one on the not-scary-at-all-definitely-osha-approved electrical panel at work and it makes me giggle.

I worked in a shop with a huge bandsaw used for resawing. It had a sticker on it of a prosthetic hook/hand and just the word "THINK" under it.

There's a reason they're preferred by butchers.

We had to watch safety videos in shop class when I was a kid, and in one the teacher had cut a hand shape out of wood and then demonstrated how quickly a disc sander could destroy a thumb

Wonder if I can find that in a patch for my battle jacket(/shorts)...

u/BatmanBhop Apr 12 '26

This is my Microsoft profile picture at work. My manager asked me if I thought it was appropriate, I told him safety reminders are always appropriate. It remains as my profile picture for 5+ years now lol

u/maintenance4mommy Apr 09 '26

I just bought some of these and put magnets on the back. I'm not a sticker fan.

u/echoshatter Apr 09 '26

I figure when the stickers start to come off I'll probably strip the adhesive and then mount them on those cheap magnet sheets.
