Or the iTunes weaponization clause " including, without limitation, the development, design, manufacture or production of nuclear, missiles, or chemical or biological weapons." which, if nothing else is lousy English.
Then there was the ASUS hardware warranty:
There is damage caused by natural disaster, intentional or unintentional misuse, acts of war, space invasions, abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or use under abnormal conditions.
Makes you wonder how many of their customers had hardware damaged by alien attacks.

The purpose of those provisions is to prove that the company's managers and even their lawyers have not bothered to read the EULA that they demand of their customers. A neat joke, that.
