YOU THINK THIS IS FAIR ???

[zombifiers]

Grammer has nothing to do with a lawsuit >.> u think the person who caused the "coffee is hot" labels for mcdonalds was literate or grammatically correct? no, but she did make off with 5 mil.

She also walked away with her pants melted into her labia, so let's make fun of her some more right you dipshit.

God I hate it when people use that as an example of "dumb lawsuits." A 65+ year old woman had third degree burns on her genitals.

Ohhh dear sir,

The fact that she was hurt (dont care) does not matter to me because i didnt know her, and am a fairly cynical person. I could care less if it melted off her legs into her stomach.

That does not change the fact that she did not understand that coffee (which was at the time for mcdonalds, generally hot) would be hot, or she could atleast have tested the fact before picking up the cup, as it would have been, a fairly hot cup, to melt off her legs.

However, The fact of the matter is, that does not change the fact, that you have to be anywhere close to literate to win a case in court. Which was the point i was making. as stated, in a quote from your post "Grammer has nothing to do with a lawsuit >.>"

There's nothing dipshitty about it; did she really need a label on her coffee cup to indicate that the liquid was hot? Really? Are we that much of a moronic nation that we need warning signs and caution labels everywhere so we don't commit mass levels of stupidity? What type of coffee ISN'T hot?

Yeah, it sucks she injured herself, but it was pretty much her own fault.

Thank you for the support, and i agree with everything you have said. Other than "What type of coffee ISN'T hot?" there are many kinds. However mcdonalds only recently started to carry anything but. So your statement stands. Just saying, i would expect someone to state soon that...

"There are many kinds of cold coffee, lots and lots, and i for one like the warning labels, it helps me to know for one that someone got rich off the idea that they noticed they were not there and that makes my sexual organs tingle."

True. I imagine, however, that if she went to McDonalds, and didn't intentionally order an iced coffee, and the drink she picked up was warm in her hands, she should have been able to deduce that the beverage was, indeed, hot. :P

But yes, you're welcome.

How much do you actually know about this? She didn't sue TO PUT labels on the coffee. She "sued" when McD only offered a few hundred bucks toward her expensive-ass hospital bill (which btw was not 5mill). You act like she didn't know the shit was hot. People know coffee is hot. However, no one expects to accidentally spill some to the point where they need skin grafts. Her spilling the coffee was an accident. Her needing hundreds of thousand of dollars in medical attention is McD's fault. Prior to that, McD had already been hit with hundreds of reports of severe burns. Get a grip.

Let me reestablish:
I spill coffee I just made on me. Shit that burns. Whoops
That coffee that spilled on her. Oh my god my sweatpants have literally melted into my leg and I need skin grafts.
