Citation needed on that one.
- agumonkey 4y agoNot exactly the same but there's the legendary McDonald's lawsuit after some customer burned his finger after dropping his coffee.
- jamesdelaneyie 4y agoYou mean this case? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebeck_v._McDonald%27s_Restaurants https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebeck_v._McDonald%27s_Restau... Where a 79 year old woman suffered 3rd degree burns to her pelvic region after spilling coffee in her lap?
- gambiting 4y agoWhile I agree that McDonalds should have been found guilty in that case(they deliberately set their machines to produce much hotter coffee than is standard anywhere) I feel like this is a case that could have been only won in the US, because only US courts give any time to stuff like this. Maybe I'm wrong, but my feeling is that a case like this would have been thrown out long before being heard in any other country - she spilled her coffee, it's clearly her fault(would have been the resoning).
- agumonkey 4y agoYeah I think so. I think I misremembered the burned area due to some standup that made fun of this later.
- anigbrowl 4y agoLegendary in the sense that you got all the details wrong. If you're answering someone saying 'citation needed' the least you can do is look up what you want to reference first so you can actually share useful information instead of multiplying confusion. If you can't remember or don't have time to look something up, you can just not reply.
- agumonkey 4y agoHow else would I get to enjoy your magnificent replies then ?
