she got third degree burns. it's not stupid. coffee shouldn't give you third degree burns.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

yeah but if you're stupid enough not to know that the coffee is going to be HOT, then maybe you shouldnt be out in public, buying coffee

she didn't sue cuz she didn't know the coffee would be hot... she sued cuz she didn't know the coffee would be hot enough to give her third degree burns.... its just the media trying to make her look like an idiot that makes the case sound way more stupid than it really is.

If I remember correctly , McDonald's coffee was 82 degrees Celcius while coffee made at home usually runs around 65 degrees Celcius. Therefore , the guilty party was guilty.

Most people test the coffee with their pinky fingers, not by full-on removing the lid...

by Anonymous 13 years ago

I've never seen anyone do that

But in that article the lady removed the lid to put in milk and sugar. Either way, that coffee isn't safe.

I thought they had put a "caution: hot" on but it was super small and the guy working there was also supposed to verbally tell her?

theres a difference between "ow that sucks" and "HOLY FUCK I NEED TO GO TO A HOSPITAL"

by Anonymous 13 years ago

what that lady didn't realize at the time is that all this really did is prove that she's an idiot, and that our legal system allows people to sue because they don't have common sense, or claim not to.

Oh and that's b.s. you can't get third degree burns from coffee, from fire maybe, but the most coffee would do is second degree, even at 90 degrees celcius. boiling water only gives you second degree burns.
