to kjbweb, do you not understand how coffee is made, for the not so bright persons of our group let me explain… Boiling hot water is poured onto coffee grounds which is then run through a filter and that is how you get that delicious brown liquid that people drink every day… Both the McDonalds and Burger King women should have known that there COFFEE was going to be hot(since both ASKED for COFFEE i take that it means they were regular coffee drinkers). The industry that i work in is heavily controlled by OSHA and other saftey control orginizations, and as soon as they catch wind of stupid shit like this my life is run down just a little bit more because not only is my job no longer safe but i have to be careful when i drink my morning coffee

I have been proud to be an american since i can remember, but to read this about somebody who sued a fast food chain because her COFFEE was hot and they didnt tell her that her COFFEE was hot and she burnt her self because of her personal stupidity, and on top of this, 10 years ago, again TEN FUCKING YEARS AGO… She wins a large settlement. THIS IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF WHY OUR BELOVED COUNTRY IS IN THE BOTTOM OF THE SHITTER. Stupid people crying over their own lack of forsight. i dont know why i try anymore

The only people more stupid than these fools who sue are the juries who agree with them. It turns one fool into 13.

If juries would use common sense and turn some of these nut cases down, then the companies wouldn’t be compelled to settle out of court.

Of course, we all better worry that Aslanis will sue us for making fun of her stupidity….wait, not to worry, she obviously can’t read, so we have nothing to worry about. (it says “HOT” on the cup fool!)

This has got to be the stupidest thing I have ever seen before in my life. People don’t want to earn there money the honest way. They want everything handed to them on a silver platter. In this case in form of a check. But, the biggest dummies are the lawyers for Burger King. I wouldn’t have settled for anything. This case would have been in litigation for years and years. By the time it would have been settled out of court Burger King wouldn’t even exist and her family would have forgotten all about the stupid law suit. And if they did remember, they would be to embarrassed to tell anybody that they were related to this crazy, greedy lady.

I can not believe they actually settled with her!! I would of told her to go fuck herself
and any judge that would of let her win that lawsuit should be stripped of his title
cause that is a bunch of crap!! When you order coffee you want it hot!! YOu don’t hear anyon
anyone saying can I please get a cup of cold coffee!! If the coffee was cold she would
have bitched and tried to get her meal free, but since the coffee was hot like it was
suppose to be she suing McDonalds on the grounds of shes stupid and shouldn’t have been
able to fix coffee by herself to drink. What a moron!!!

Well – I actually saw photos of the injuries the woman, who
sued McDonald, had to suffer from.
I don’t know of anyone, that has seen them, that will ever
make fun of that lawsuit or put it the category of frivilous
litigation.

For all of those ridiculing things like that – without having
the facts – may you be broiled by a cup of coffee in your lap,
that was as hot as the one of that incidence.

I remember this case and like you, I felf that this case was
entirely without merit. I disagrre with the fact that this case
was even heard. Even though this case was ridiculous, every
person has the right to be heard. When you consider the costs
involved in litagation such as court costs, attorney fees, lost
work and the damage done by the media who covers the case, is it
any surprise that McDonalds would offer a setlement? no.
It was cheaper to pay a small settlement and close the matter.
In my opinion, the decision to quietly sweep this under the rug
opens Pandoras box, where we will see alot more of these
ridiculous lawsuits because she got away with it.
Remember the old expression ” The squeaky wheel gets the oil”
That is what happened here..Three people made money off this case
and they are the plaintif, her attorney and McDonald’s atorney.

This is all dumb. People these days sue over the littlest things but I think they should really think about what they are doing. i mean if this girl had that bad of burns then she should’ve sued but I mean people that say something happened that didn’t its crazy. Like what if someone fell at a store because the floor was slippery should they not sue because they should have known the floor was wet or should they sue because the store didn’t set out the signs that said the floor may be slippery? Think long nd hard about that one and comment back to let me know how ya feel.

Apparently, you angry readers out there do not have all the information. McDonalds has been cited hundreds of times for serving coffee at temperatures well above regulation. Furthermore, there has also been numerous cases when people have been injured. This particular woman actually received third degree burns.

Everyone knows coffee is hot, but when it is nearly 200 degrees hot and can burn you so bad enough to send you to the hospital, shouldn’t it be McDonalds’ fault?

I want to sue every company that ever sold me anything at all since I’m a numbnuts stupid asshole and I have no brains whatever. Any company what sold me anything was taking advantage of the disabled.

I want to sue you for having the dumbest website. You’ve wasted minutes out of my admittedly short life because you’ve put this dreck on the web.

I want to sue anyone named Sue even if they’ve been to Sioux City. Do you sue Sue in Sioux City, see? Si!

I am very glad to see that others have written to explain the McDonald’s incident as that really was not as was reported through the media. Not only (as noted) had they been warned about the temperature of their coffee, if I remember correctly it was 40 degrees higher than the coffee one makes in their average coffee maker at home and above regulations.

This does not mean that if in this particular case the simple argument is that the employees failed to tell her that it as hot… well DUH!

I hate how litigous this society has become. I am appalled by burglars that sue because
they fell in the home they broke into and broke their leg. I’m inclined to be dismissive
of anybody that “sues”, but….
Are you sure you know the whole story? The McDonald’s incident was reported VERY badly and
with bias towards McDs. The older woman spilled coffee on her lap and genitals sitting in a
car outside of the McDs. Her grown daughter went running into the ‘restaurant’ and begged for
cups of cool water to help her mother and asked them to call 911. They refused to give her
the water without charging her, so she paid them. They refused to call 911 and a bystander
(I believe) did it instead. After her mother was being treated for what turned out to be 3rd
degree burns (why is the coffee THAT hot?)in the hospital, the woman contacted the McDs.
She explained what had happened and said that she thought the coffee was really being served
too hot. She did not demand money, or assistance with her moms bills. They were incredibly
rude to her. When the McDs attorney appeared in court he indicated that only 11% of people
that buy their coffee have ever complained of having to seek medical attention because of
burns. And only 1% of those people had to be hospitalized. He was cold and dismissed the
pain and scarring of those people as statistically insignificant. Mcd’s serves billions
of people. What is 1% of a billion? What is 10% of a billion? The money awarded in the suit
went to a charity for burn victims. The woman that sued did not profit.
