Enrise Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 leva him alone' date=' its obvious why he called. he was 66, dont you know people from then dont believe in caffinated sodas rofl[/quote'] You're right, let's all bug the lady who sued McDonalds for spilling coffee on herself when the thing said: "CAUTION! HOT!" -___________- They put those warnings on the cups AFTER she sued them. That's why those warnings are there. I always saw the coffee signs before they were sued. Even then, "Common Sense", if she ever had coffee, she would know it was hot, and it was her dumb fault to spill it on herself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 There's no doubt that it was an idiotic reason to sue, but that doesn't make it any less valid. McDonalds did not technically warn her that her hot coffee would be hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrise Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 In my area, I saw the signs on the cups... Must've been in the US is why then, cause I live in a European Country and all that jazz...Either way, it seems people these days lost some common sense, idiotic reason very, technically not warning them isn't neccessary in some points of veiw. I'm pretty sure that you don't need a sign to know if it hot or not. If it wamrs your hands, it's hot... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OMGAKITTY Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Yes, but on the legal side, she hurt herself because ol' Mickey D didn't give her adequate warning. Common sense really doesn't factor in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorgeismydog Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 With Mcdonalds, I think that the lady just wanted some money, she spilled it on herself and sued for it being hot, where if it wouldve been cold shed have sued for them giving her old coffee.

Amethyst Phoenix Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 I found that story (I said petroleum jelly istead of contraceptive lol):A woman is suing the pharmacy that sold her a popular contraceptive jelly because she ate the stuff on toast and got pregnant anyway. And, incredibly, many legal experts are saying she's got an excellent chanceof collecting! "The woman is a complete idiot," said one attorney who asked that we not use his name. "How bright can you be if you think eating a vaginal gel will prevent conception? "But certain aspects of the case involve truth in labeling and false advertising issues. She may not collect but she'll make a lot of noise and trouble. People are down on lawyers anyway. They thinkwe waste time and money on frivolous lawsuits. This isn't going to help our public relations any." A spokesman for the unnamed mom-and-pop drugstore says he's shocked and angry that such a case could ever be taken seriously. "All she has to do is open the box and read the directions," says the spokesman. "Next thing you know someone will come after us because they couldn't stick things together with their toothpaste. "I can just imagine some moron saying: 'It's paste, isn't it? Why can't I glue these papers onto my bulletin board?' " "It says right on it 'jelly,'" says Mrs. Chyton, a former model who was once a cheerleader for a popular professional basketball team. "And they kept it on the shelf just two aisles from the food section. I know, now, that the directions say it should be used vaginally with a condom. "But who has time to sit around reading directions these days - especially when you're sexually aroused? Yes people are idiots lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
