McDonalds shouldn't have been heating their coffee to 195 degrees, hot enough to cause 3rd degree burns to skin.
I don't know about any of you, but when I make tea or my family makes coffee, the water boils... at least 212 degrees... and she took a cup of hot coffee, and held it between her legs, and spilled it on herself. Had an employee spilled the coffee on her? Sure, I can definitely see that, but she spilled it on herself, and you should expect burns when you spill hot coffee on yourself. Whenever we get a coffee or tea, we assume it is just below boiling temperature. I know this is an unpopular opinion, but that wasn't McDonald's fault.
What are you talking about? Even if you use a french press with boiling water by the time it steeps and all it cools off a good bit. Mcdonald's kept it to near boiling because the disposable cups don't keep shit warm so by the time you finished your commute to work it would be the "perfect" temperature. Considering a shit load of complaints were made about it and they didn't fix it that is on them.
I expect coffee to be hot not over 200 degrees...
Personal responsibility. I'm smart enough to know not to pop the top off a hot beverage in a car (moving or not) while resting beside my crotch. Too many dumbshits can't take responsibility for their own mistakes. This is leftist thinking, the blame sometime else for my actions game.
Hm, I wonder if you'd be singing the same tune if it was a minor fender bender that caused the top to come off and cause 3rd degree burns to 16% of a woman's body.
Would you then agree that McDonalds fucked up when they served their coffee at ridiculous temperatures? Because that's what the court considered.
The fact that the lady was trying to add creamer to her drink is irrelevant. It was the actions of the company that caused the injury.
Not considering more than your knee-jerk reaction to a story is leftist thinking.
If there was a car wreck that caused the coffee to fly about the interior has nothing to do with the coffee but the person that caused the wreck. Apples, Oranges. One is caused directly by the user/owner of the coffee. The wreck could be caused but someone else and is out of the coffee owners responsibility. Your argument/point is incorrect.
To quote you "The fact that the lady was trying to add creamer to her drink is irrelevant. It was the actions of the company that caused the injury." You contradict yourself within the two sentences. You acknowledge the owner of the coffee as adding creamer, so she had to open the coffee and was handling said beverage. Yet you blame the company (McDonalds) for the beverage being hot and causing the injury. NO the injury was caused by the owner of the coffee spilling it on themselves. McDonalds did not create the spill.
Oh and my "knee-jerk reaction" to an almost 30 year old story is laughable. This is a well known incident. Yes she got burned, but it was her spilling the drink, not McDonalds dumping it on her that caused the problem. Most people I know think this whole lawsuit was a joke. The lady winning was just a way to stick it to a company, make some money for being pleading stupidity. If you are too stupid to handle a hot beverage properly then please render yourself detached from the living.
Lastly hot beverages are HOT and caution should apply. But common sense is very lacking with most individuals. BTW Courts also decided to flat ignore election fraud. So I have no faith in courts.
Yeah, the courts and common sense have already said your line of logic is wrong, but sure.
