I got fries the other day and they were so hot that it nearly burnt my tongue. Its not just the physical damage that was done to me, its the emotional damage too. I cry every night. I am suing McDonald's for not a penny less than a $100 million.

So then you've stopped eating fries? All the better.
There are some defeats more triumphant than victories.
Fries were not specifically designed to hurt people. Guns however,....
shareI know (or hope) you're joking, but look up the idiots who sued McD's for their coffee being too hot.

I could have sworn there was more than one, but I was going by memory.

I know it's been a while but there's a doc called "Hot Coffee" which explains what happened. The coffee machine was actually faulty and the coffee was BOILING hot when it was served. A son took his mother to the drive thru, ordered coffee, pulled over to the side so they could add they sugar, creamer and such, she held the cup between legs as she did (which we've all done at one point or another) it spilled and she got 3rd degree burns on 16% of her body. She asked McDonalds for $20,000 for medical bills, they offered her $800.
Then they sued.
"The jury awarded Liebeck $200,000 in compensatory damages ? reduced to $160,000 because the jury found her 20 percent at fault ? and $2.7 million in punitive damages for McDonald?s callous conduct. (To put this in perspective, McDonald?s revenue from coffee sales alone was in excess of $1.3 million a day.) The trial judge reduced the punitive damages to $480,000, but did state that McDonald?s had engaged in ?willful, wanton, and reckless? behavior. Mrs. Liebeck and McDonald?s eventually settled for a confidential amount."

I should sue Popeye's. After eating their beans and rice, I endured several minutes of pain driving home thinking I was about to crap in my pants. When I finally made it home - it was just one huge fart. I'm haunted to this day, and deserve compensation for mental anguish.

This movie isn't even THAT coherent. Lol. This movie is you suing McDonald's because someone ELSE ate the hot fries and the pain of it killed someone you love.
