THAT is why our world is messed up.

It's also why McDonald's has "Caution! Hot!" printed on the coffee cups lol

i havent eaten at McDonalds for almost 2 years and i plan on never eating there again

Mcdonald's sucks.

I eat there like 4 times a year. The people who disgust me are the ones who eat it four times a week. F'ucking pigs. I have no sympathy for obese people. I'll flip through the channels on TV and find a very "emotional" talk show and see a lady crying and saying she needs "help" because she's disgustingly overweight. Meanwhile, a kid in the Phillipines is crying because him and his family are going to bed hungry again...

EVeryone see the film SUPER SIZE ME

i have it is great

"I'm lovin' it"

Haha, you told me about that movie. I gotta remember to look.

Yeah it was really good. Funny too.

He vomits the first time he eats a supersized meal...eww.

And his Vegan diet stopped as soon as he lost the weight, hahaha.

[QUOTE=JmE]It's been tried. They lost the case I think. What was really brilliant, was when some idiot spilled McDonald's coffee all over themselves, received extensive burn damage to the skin, filed a lawsuit against McDonalds and won tons of money.[/QUOTE]
[b]Stella Awards[/b]

It's time once again to consider the candidates for the annual Stella Awards. The Stella's are named after 81-year-old Stella Liebeck who spilled coffee on herself and successfully sued McDonalds. That case inspired the Stella Awards for the most frivolous successful lawsuits in the United States.

The following are this year's candidates:

1. Kara Walton of Claymont, Delaware, successfully sued the owner of a nightclub in a neighboring city when she fell from the bathroom window to the floor and knocked out her two front teeth. This occurred while Ms. Walton was trying to sneak through the window in the ladies room to avoid paying the $3.50 cover charge. She was awarded $12,000 and dental expenses.

2. Jerry Williams of Little Rock, Arkansas, was awarded $14,500 and medical expenses after being bitten on the buttocks by his next-door neighbor's beagle. The beagle was on a chain in its owner's fenced yard. The award was less than sought because the jury felt the dog might have been just a little provoked at the time by Mr. Williams who was shooting it repeatedly with a pellet gun.

3. A 19-year-old Carl Truman of Los Angeles won $74,000 and medical expenses when his neighbor ran over his hand with a Honda Accord. Mr. Truman apparently didn't notice there was someone at the wheel of the car when he was trying to steal his neighbor's hub caps.

4. A. Philadelphia restaurant was ordered to pay Amber Carson of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, $113,500 a! after she slipped on a soft drink spill and broke her coccyx (tailbone). The beverage was on the floor because Ms. Carson had thrown it at her boyfriend 30 seconds earlier during an argument.

5. Terrence Dickson of Bristol, Pennsylvania, was leaving a house he had just finished robbing by way of the garage. He was not able to get the garage door to go up since the automatic door opener was malfunctioning. He couldn't reenter the house because the door connecting the house and garage locked when he pulled it shut. The family was on vacation, and Mr. Dickson found himself locked in the garage for eight days. He subsisted on a case of Pepsi he found and a large bag of dry dog food. He sued the homeowner's insurance claiming the situation caused him undue mental anguish. The jury agreed to the tune of $500,000.

6. A jury of her peers awarded Kathleen Robertson of Austin, Texas, $780,000 after breaking her ankle by tripping over a toddler who was running inside a furniture store. The owners of the store were understandably surprised at the verdict, considering the misbehaving little toddler was Ms. Robertson's son.

7. This year's favorite could easily be Mr. Merv Grazinski of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Mr. Grazinski purchased a brand new 32-foot Winnebago motor home. On his first trip home, having driven onto the freeway, he set the cruise control at 70 mph and calmly left the drivers seat to go into the back and make himself a cup of coffee. Not surprisingly, the R.V. left the freeway, crashed and overturned. Mr. Grazinski sued Winnebago for not advising him in the owner's manual that he couldn't actually do this. The jury awarded him $1,750,000 plus a new motor home. The company actually changed their manuals on the basis of this suit, just in case there were any other complete morons buying their recreation vehicles.

I remember 5. What about the guy that sued some fast food place cause he ate there everyday and claimed he didn't know it'd made him fat.

:lol: Wow that is why we suck

It seems recently, for the most part, all the idiots are creating threads... and then we go destroy them.

yea thats pretty much all these forums are now

And cheeser calls someone a bigot.

yes and then everyone argues with cheeser

am i an idiot :D

american's drink mainly bottled beer don't they? Carlsberg is good

ON a totally dfifferent subject:

Has anyone else here tried sticking 2p coins to their pick-ups.

[QUOTE=jlightyearm]american's drink mainly bottled beer don't they? Carlsberg is good[/QUOTE]

It just depends on the situation. About every bar you'll find over here has draft beer, but it's usually crap like Budweiser & Miller Lite. Then of course they have the same **** in bottles usually. Some bars will have nice craft and imported beer on both tap and bottle, and even some places have cask conditioned ale, which is great. For drinking at home though, the obvious choice is bottled beer, cause most people don't have a draft beer setup in their homes (although it's becoming more popular, especially for us homebrewers).

[QUOTE=OPERATIONrancid]Fosters?! EWWWW! Us Aussies export it for a reason.

Emu Bitter, Tooheys New or James Squire for me.[/QUOTE]
Your damb right we do. Fosters is ****e.
Carlton Draught is the only good beer.
