We live in a time where a dumbass can spill coffee on herself and sue McDonalds.
While I agree this case is misguided, you have your facts wrong on that McDonald's case. Have you ever seen the burns on the women? Most of that money went for her treatment. Everyone think that was just a money grab, when in fact it clearly was not. McDonald's was actually at fault for that.
So McDonalds actually reached down and put that cup between her legs? OK got it now thanks.

People still use the McDonald's argument? McDonald's did a good job trying to twist that case until we got to see the pictures of that woman's legs... We've all spilled hot liquids before however... If you have seen the pictures of her legs... It's quite obvious this wasn't just a normal cup of hot Joe and she deserved whatever she got out of it.
yup. to me this sounds like another situation where a lawyer(s) is looking for an extra payday and talked them into 'making a point'
this. sometimes the willingness for people on this site to show their stupidity is astounding.
my gf grew up two towns over. one of the teachers was a girl she went to school with and a friend of hers lost their nephew
A step in the right direction since our congress seems paralyzed and unable to fix this threat to civil safety
Again, before commenting on something, it's better to know what you are talking about. Her making a mistake doesn't mean McDonald's isn't responsible for their mistake, which they CLEARY made if you took maybe 10 minutes to read some readily available literature available all over the internet...
Oh, I get that McD's heats their coffee with a nuclear reactor and is clearly above normal "hot" coffee. I'm just saying she was an idiot for putting something obviously that hot in between her legs. I don't see why McD's should have been held responsible for her actions. It would be like suing Ford when you run your GT500 into a telephone pole.
So which previously banned member are you?
