![There was a discussion yesterday about the woman who sued McDonalds because their coffee was too hot. I was suspicious of her name and decided to look her up. She is rather (((tribal))) looking [460x276 - 25KB]](https://pic8.co/sh/elAJcK.jpg){kind=link}
130 F, 54 C. You can't keep liquid water at 130 C under normal pressures.
The point McDonald's lawyer made was that any food over 130F constitutes a burning hazard, so unless the restaurant serves only lukewarm food and drink then customers will always need to be careful and if they're not then that's outside the restaurant's control.
I had a brain spasm...in any case, they knew of 700 priors.
Well... let's take that in context. Supposed you run a diner and you get one scalding incident every three years, is that negligent? Probably not. Now let's say you run a thousand diners, suddenely that number gets really big in absolute terms, even though it's the same accident rate.
Micky D's sells a lot of coffee, eventually 700 people were always going to burn themselves on it.
The rich cunts were playing the numbers. They KNEW THE COFFEE WAS TOO FUCKING HOT. Yet they resented being told what to do.
