Common Sense?

I was looking at the "usage instructions" of my mouthwash bottle (Brand 'X') which read as : "Use 20 ml of Mouthwash daily and rinse your teeth and gum....."

This made me just wonder - How could I ensure that I use 20 ml of it daily to rinse my gum and teeth? Additionally, buy some 20 ml container? I looked closely at the lid of the bottle, but I didn't see any "20 ml" label stamped on it!

Eventually, I use the lid of my mouthwash bottle to take out "some" amount for use daily. Practically, I DISCOVER that "this" amount is sufficient enough for rinsing my teeth! Hence giving birth to an empirical assumption that one serving of the lid might be equivalent to 20 ml !!!

Why do such products (I've seen many!) occasionally miss this line : "The lid of this bottle can hold 20 ml of Mouthwash!"

SIMPLE !

Mutual Funds !!!

I find the ADs of almost all Mutual Funds same:

They all start with this line: "We are ranked amongst the best as per present rankings!!"

They all end up with this line: "NOTE: Past performances don't indicate future performances!!"

Isn't that funny?
