Quote:So because she spilled the coffee on herself, she was the one that made it three times hotter than necessary for human consumption? Yep. Never mind that it SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THAT HOT TO BEGIN WITH.

 

I find it hard to believe that after sitting in the cup for X amount of minutes after pouring, that it would be as hot as claimed. Was she carrying her own bunson burner too? And its human error that resulted in the spill. 

 

My problem isn't with the lawsuit, but the amount of the lawsuit. Wasn't it for millions of dollars?? 

 

I'd say suing for the amount of any medical bills, plus lost wages for work, and maybe a reasonable "pain and suffering allowance" would have been fair. but to sue for millions just shows you it was a money grab. Typical of todays lazy, opportunistic trash.
