I didn't know that either, but coffee is supposed to be hot and even if you make it yourself and spill it over yourself you're gonna get burnt, next it'll be someone suing because a Big Mac made them fat!

Coffee and other hot drinks should be served at 160 degrees max. Even then most people can't drink them right away. McDonald's was serving it to customers at 180-190 degrees, way too hot and very dangerous if you spill it on yourself. That they did this to save money made it even more despicable.
Well my Keurig brews at 192 which they say is the optimal temperature
Brewing temp, not serving temp.
Either way it comes out hot!
Yes, but in a food service setting providing hot drinks to customers at such a temperature is dangerous. Flimsy cups and lids increase the potential for spills compared to the relatively stable ceramic mug you likely use with your Keurig..
One of the most outwardly racist parts of America...
I read an article of how big companies slanders big lawsuits and mocks the outcome and in the imaginary of people, the coffee lawsuit was a greedy old lady for a tad too hot coffee that did nothing. But it was a serious damage to a poor old lady
Spent many days in the hospital being permanently disfigured and she was disabled for a few years. She asked only for medical expenses to be covered and MCDonalds refused, then escalated and tried to settle several times starting for a few thousands with McDonalds refusing everytime. She won a couple of millions but McDonalds got away reducing the sentence to a fraction of it
So yeah, the coffee lawsuit was pictured conveniently as a greedy consumer suing poor McDonalds and as a representation of the abuse of the consumer to poor big corp. But it was terrible for the consumer and McDonalds was a dick about it
The same on the article calling "big wedgie" to fecking serious injuries and if you are a lazy reader, you will read just the title and think what a greedy asshole suing Disney for a wedgie that is "to be expected", and then you realize that it was serious. It is all rig to favour big Corp and against the consumer
I'd be interested in knowing if the requirement 'keep your legs crossed when going down the slide' was either in print or verbalized by a staff member. The other water slide I mentioned at a different water park would not let you go down the slide until you complied.
If the warning was not clear or verbalized, then feck the water park & go for as much as possible; if it was displayed & / or verbalized, then it gets a little more fuzzy.
I doubt we will know, but regardless I will side with the injured plaintiff as I doubt that they love being injured at this extend and Disney has the money. Having an amusement park is a liability for obvious reasons and that is also why they have insurance. For the consumer is a non wanted life changing experience that might affect her physically and mentally all her life and it might affect her economically due to medical bills in US. For Disney is not even a dent And definitely definitely definitely definitely don't call a big wedgie this kind of injuries to favour public Disney optics. Dicks
Still haven't seen a drag queen or a trans person be sentenced yet...
LFG...
Mass shooting last night at a university in Baltimore. 5 injured no fatalities thankfully as far as I’ve read.
Random NYC stabbing death (no blood)...
Nope, not clicking that.
Bonus Point: He is an elected GOP official.
And another for keeping up the Texas tradition of being an idiot
How can you be anti-abortion and anti-birth control at the same time? I am convinced this is about race.
Soon they’ll ban sex during non-ovulating days, and make ejaculating into anything other than a vagina carry a death sentence for the offender.
The leaders of the catholic and evangelical churches will never let this happen.
The sentence that I always heard is " all the children that god give us" . Meaning that sex has one and only purpose but to bring new souls into the world. That means only to have sex to procreate, no wanks, no birth control, no abortion...and pleasure should be a secondary effect
That’s Catholicism. And most evangelicals aren’t even fans of Catholicism
That's basically Roman Catholicism!
I thought it was a global christian thing
The more you learn....
Do victims of gun violence have to pay for their own treatment in the US?
Just the fact that it was proactively flagged is amazing...Apparently 10 killed and dozens wounded. The photo from the video is from a bowling alley.
Somewhat bizarrely, the two involved locations are on the North and South side of town, rather than nearby.

Whatever, no one who can stop this actually cares.
Now is not the right time to talk about mass shootings.
Yep, they'll allow altar boys bums as well.
Those who know Ybor City next to Tampa, & how popular Guavaween is, know that there are a shit ton of people crowding the streets every night this time of year...
