Get back to us on that, the next time you purchase your coffee, from that outlet you purchase a cup of it from, which regularly brews it at 140 degrees, and scald off all your tastebuds because some 'tard set it to brew at 200 that day and you got the first cup at 190.

I was not aware of all the facts. I vote non-frivolous in this particular instance. Thanks for sharing, Playmale.

I won't, don't you worry. . I make it a point to look out for myself. I don't pour super hot liquid into my mouth without testing it to see how hot it is. And if I did, it would be because I was too groggy or distracted or something like that... in which case, it would still be my fault. So, no, I won't come here and cry victim to you, for something I did to myself. I might come share my misery and laugh at myself with you... but I won't blame something that was in my control and went awry, on someone else.

That's why I like to pour the coffee out myself and put extra cream in it to cool it down or if I am using the fake shit then I just wait till it's a respectable temperature to drink. As brindle said I always test it. But I wouldn't sue them either if I burnt my mouth done that plenty of times.

I still say it wasn't Mac's fault I mean after all it's always been known as a CUP OF HOT COFFEE for a reason people and I still don't buy that it could have done that kind of damage to her. Shit I have been burnt by a freakin cast iron wood stove before and been burnt by soldering irons to never had any problems after from it. Just sayin ok off rant.

Me too. The fault lies with the stupid woman taking the safety lid off. If you read the deposition, the lid says "contents may be hot"... she took it off while she was driving... this to me is someone who is too stupid to be allowed to wander freely in society. She had no one to blame but herself. The coffee was hot enought o scald badly... thus the warning and safety lid.

The makers of blow dryers put a warning label on them... but are they to blame that they are made with enough voltage to kill you, if you turn one on in the shower? No... the idiot who ignored the warning is. IMHO. Hehehe...

If I ever hit the lottery, I will begin a hobby of monitoring lawsuits. Anytime one in my region is stupid like this... I will sue the plaintiff for wasting tax payers dollars and clogging the courts. Hehehe. Tit for tat, per se.

good point. I always laugh at the warning labels on things and then think, you know someone has to have done it, that's why the label is there.
