"I always thought it was good for you. I never thought there was anything wrong with it,"
He should be taken out and shot in his bulbous head.
This is a prime example of why the world is going to ****.

Ah, frivolous lawsuits...
If they win I'm moving to the Netherlands, or some equally more sensible country.
-
It can't win....it's far too stupid :wtf:
*thanks god he is thin.....and somewhat intelligent*
-
Pfff. Just lace all the fast-food with tiny amounts of arsenic then anyone who's a greedy **** gets poisoned and dies. Thus an end to all the trailer-park rejects, the stereotypical fat-ass Americans, etc etc.

Watch what you say about trailer-park rejects... my cousin and his wife (my other cousin) are trailer-park rejects!
-
:sigh: What is my beloved country coming to?
-
:snipe:
Fits quite well.

It was all McDonald's fault! We couldn't resist the taste!
If they win they will recieve 5 death threats per day.:mad: :mad:

Hehe.

Has anyone ever read Farenheit 451? Cause if you haven't then go to a book store and buy it right now. This is no different from censorship. My fellow Americans are ****ing the world apart. I'm actually thinking about praying tonight that they lose.

Ah, don't worry... at this rate of devolvenemt inside the country I'm hoping for the Fire by the time I'm 20, at least. [tosses Molotov cocktail]
-
all i can say to this is that these people got what they deserved.. "I always thought it was healthy for you" what a dumbass! No need to save the stupid from themselves; now all we can do is pray they don't reproduce.
-
See, now all the court time that those fat-ass gimps waste could be used for something useful, like repealing the DMCA and TIPS.

and true dat!
i've heard similar stuff... like they want 'priveledges' and such! it's like: GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASS AND GO EXERCISE!
i can understand if they're handicapped or something, but this is retarded... sure, some of them have diseases that make them fat or overweight, but one third of americans don't have these diseases!!!
-
Personally I think the whole civil court system should be scrapped and replaced by a simple vengance system somewhat like the Pon'Farr death-fight thingy.
-
well, i mean... it's even WORSE than that guy who sued McDonalds a few months ago because he spilled hot coffee on himself... and he said it was their fault cause it was too hot or something
i mean, coffee --> hot --> burns!!!
-
There was some woman who burned her mouth from a drink and sued because there was no warning on the cup. And guess what drink it was. Yes, that's right: Hot Chocolate
-
dumbasses....:rolleyes:
-
the stupid should not be allowed to reproduce, in fact, i think that they need to preform IQ tests and people with an IQ lower than 100 should be promptly castrated.

The scary thing is not that they might win (I don't think they have that good a chance, but IANAL)... McD, BK, et al. might settle out of court to avoid expensive litigation.
So there will be a bunch of fat rich people (and richer lawyers).
A spokesman for a restaurant industry group has ridiculed the legal action.
"He must be aware that fully two-thirds of all foods consumed in America are consumed in people's homes. Is he proposing that we sue America's moms?" John Doyle of the Center for Consumer Freedom told ABC News.
Uh oh... look out moms, you're next...
-
Holy ****, this is almost as stupid as the coffee lawsuit that led to all coffee from fast-food joints being cool with the damn warning.
The place is named Kentucky Fried Chicken, they should realize that that means it's loaded full of fat.
If this lawsuit wins, after high school I'll go to that college in Wales that sent the huge book to my sister, or maybe Australia. Just away from these morons....

You'll notice the name is now just "KFC" -- much more p.c. I guess
-
Daum fat americans.... what they need is some good, clean, healthy comunism. hey wait aminute...... i'm an amercian!
-
Do what I'm planning to do. Move away. Far, far away....
-
lol to where, seriously i'm listening, i know we are a bunch of "fat pigs" but i have yet to find a better place to live in the world
-
Heheheheh....:lol:heh...:lol: :lol: Hahahahahaha...HAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!!! :lol: :lol:
Oh my god, that has to be the funniest **** I've EVER read... "I always thought it was healthy food..." YEAH RIGHT! BULL****! Can't people just accept the truth and see that THEY themselves are the one to blame? Man... ONLY in America. ;)
-
lol i just actually read the article. Funny ****. Crazy obese americans
-
As fat and greedy as they are I'm actually hoping that they win. That way it would pave the way for a string of other lawsuits and do corporate fast food some damage.
-
Now if only AOL had a fast food chain.....

what's wrong with them? if you don't like, you don't go. They've success, you're envious, classical :rolleyes:
Dunno how it is in the US, but in France, they clearly tell the amount of fat in the meals, they've always done so.
-
Uh no. Now it's fine for those old/wise enough to know that what they sell is a load of crap (re-constituted meat and potato). But they deliberately target the young with advertizing (propaganda) who don't know any better and create a climate where childeren feel that they need to eat ****e to "fit in". Mc Donalds's founder (the one who transformed it into a corporation) "persuaded" President Nixon's government to introduce anti union laws when it was in its infancy in exchange fot campaign donations. On top of that they censor their critics with SLAPPS.
Venom: Isn't there a french farmer that's started a vandalism campaign against them?

on the first subject, if pârents can't explain this kind of stuff to their children, they need to be whipped ( hmm, reading what that barbar dude said, I guess they can't anyway :rolleyes: )
second topic: Yeah :lol: José Bové :lol: he even went to US once, I think he's been kicked out by the cops :lol:
This guy's a jester.

He came to East Anglia once trying to incite British farmers to do the same sort of thing. He has a certain charm about him.
Those flimsy prefabricated buildings don't stand a chance against Tractors.

I'm afraid you won't get too far away from ridiculous litigation here :(. A few months ago, some drunk guy tresspassed through another guys backyard and dived headfirst off this guys back fence into an empty canal, then sued the homeowner (successfully) because the canal was 'too close to the fence'.:rolleyes:
We aren't quite as bad as you Americans, but we're close.

He came to my state too a couple of years ago, on a socialist convention (the World Social Forum) and managed to destroy a whole crop of experimental transgenics before they kicked him out... :p

Here's a great one
A lawsuit filed in Clearwater seeks unspecified damages of more than $15,000 from Delta Airlines for asking a woman returning from a Las Vegas vacation to hold up a vibrator that she had in her travel bag.
The suit accuses Delta of negligence, gender discrimination and the intentional infliction of emotional distress.
The plaintiff, Renee Koutsouradis, said that the agent took her to the bag on the tarmac and forced her to open it 'and remove the adult toy and hold it up for visible view.''
She claims three men employed by Delta "began laughing hysterically'' and offered "obnoxious and sexually harrasing comments.''
-
anyone hear of that lawsuit filed by a burgular when he fell through a skylight and broke his legs? If i remember correctly he won.
-
It's not sexual harrasment, it's normal harrasment. The exact same thing would have happened if it'd been a man. ANd what did she expect, for them to pick it up?
Stuff like emotional damages should only be allowed if someone has been seriouly physically disfigured or raped or something. But all the lazy-ass lottery playin' tards use it for easy money.

Soon as I get the chance I'm making it legal to torture and kill burglars.

hmm..... well, you've never worked in one, then.
I started off (part time) in a McDonalds 'bout 2 years ago. Quit after my 3rd shift...still have the scars off of the deep fat fryer.
BTW, wasn;t there a woman in the us who bought a cup of coffee, and then had it spilt over her when here mother (they were both in the car) drove off... and then sued Mcdonalds (coffee was too hot), the car manufacturer (unsafe cupholders) and her mother (didn't give a warning).......?
-
Yep, that's why all the coffee is luke-warm and contained in cups that say "Caution: May be hot". Morons.....
-
where did they get that expression?
"Luke-Warm" Is there some dude named luke out there that isn't hot or cold. just slightly warm?

The really sad part of all this is that they will probably win their cases.
Just like the assholes suing the tobacco companies.
-
Er... the artificial nicotine in tobacco actually is addictive- it's a chemical that will literally put you into a mild withdrawal, like a Heroin Lite. THAT is criminal. A fairly determined person can still stop smoking without all these bull**** patches and such, but it's tough- and the same thing applies to opium.
A weak personality with an addictive tendency can render you in the thrall of grease, but the same thing could be said for eating ****, were it good tasting. People can get hooked on anything- they can get genuinely addicted to only a few substances in this world.

The American court system has become a lottery.
We have come to the point where people will sue you for looking at them the wrong way.
Sometimes I feel ashamed to live in this "great" country. :(

Oh I get it, that was on purpose.
Was it?

And I would ask everyone from refraining from going to McDonald's again. I found out through...undisclosed sources...that they import all their beef from South America, where there is no governmental health regulations on the meats (and for the sole reason that the price is just a tad bit lower).
Explains why American beef farmers can't sell their goods.
The power of money. It never fails to make me sick.
-
heh, so? I'll go to McDonalds tommorow and order a burger :wtf: That's not gonna stop me
-
actually lately every day when i come out of 24 hour fitness i either go to Cici's pizza or KFC :D

What do people find in macdonalds anyway. Last time I went to Macdonalds was when I took a trip to russia. I had to share a table with two fat russian *****es who ordered 5 double cheeseburgers. Plus the food sucked.
-
The last time i went to mcdonalds was 6 years ago. i was 12 at that time.
It's pure junk it's proberly made from nuclear waste. If it was pure beef then there wouldn't be a cow allive today.
And it's a waste off money.
-
I don't like McD's much either; Taco Bell is much better. :D
5 double cheeseburgers
:wtf: that could last me for several days... :p

didn't you hear the e-coli story... can't remeber where it happened, but it was due to uncooked burgers. the reason given by McDonalds, normally the cooking process kills the bacteria. this bacteria is due to the **** in the burgers. Because, when cows are killed in the abbatoir (spelling?), they **** themselves. And it all goes down throught a grate, with the meat products.... and get mixed in.
so what the McDonalds rep was saying, was that "Yes. we have **** in our burgers. But it's normally been well cooked, so people don;t get ill".
Therein lies a lesson.

heh... more true than you know! since McDonald's fries and several other fast food joints have small amounts of both arsenic and several carcinogens created from high-heat reactions in the fat & oil used to cook the frenchfries.
...and yes, the people here are too fat generally, much more so in the south than the north (i think temperature and airconditioning promote less activity in these regions, while northerners are more active). We eat too much meat, like 2-3 times a day instead of 2-3 times per week! %)

*shrugs*
I'm going to McDonalds, anyone want anything? This ain't gonna stop me :p
-
Yeah! Get me a big mac! Want my address?:D
-
heh, sure.....you live close by anyways don't you?
-
Not sure. Hmmm... Better ship it one-day, though. After two days in the mail, burgers get kinda funky.
-
can you e-mail me one?
