Jacket label warning!
.... what does this clothing label mean - from a motorcycle jacket I think?

No chickens were harmed in the making of this jacket. Do not throw this jacket away. Do not burn it. Do nothing. Stop it.

Actually if you look close...I think you'll see that it says TO burn it!!! Boiling looks OK as well! Plus if it says MADE HERE ...and... Made in Thailand, does that mean it can only be sold in Thailand?

If you're a turkey, do not wear this jacket.
You cannot wear this jacket inside a tent, or a car.
Smoke em if you got em.
Don't stick your foot in boiling water.
Steer the ship while wearing this jacket.
Don't be a square.

Obviously, it means "Don't chicken out; face the fire while the iron is hot or you'll take a bath on an illegal pyramid scheme while circling the town square."
Think of the thread they saved by saying it pictographically!

Do not deep-fry, wear while driving or stomping grapes, no triangles, circles or squares within 10 ft of jacket. Store in or near open flame so we can sell you another one.
Also, apparently they really like "X"s.

...... the wearer is advised not to cook chicken over an open fire,drive a car,play the triangle,or shoot hoops.
However a lukewarm bath is OK.

It clearly says:
"Made here. Circle XS
Read carefully before cutting labe.
No Turkey, burning match! No car, black hands into 30 degrees!
No triangle, no circle, no squircle!
Big warning!
Do not iron on prints or plastic parts.
Made in Thailand."
But on second look:
"Made here in circle XS
Read carefully before cutting labe.
Does not contain poultry. (In)Flammable. Do not iron. Hand wash warm.
No triangle, no circle! Circles don't fit in squares!
Big warning!
Do no iron on prints or plastic parts.
Made in Thailand."
Might as well have been written in Thai or Cuneiform.

That's not a "no chicken" sign, that's a "no 69" sign. The wearer should refrain from sex while wearing the jacket.
