Yes, it was capable of melting polyester and burning through all layers of skin down to the muscles. Coffee is intended to be consumed by mouth. Coffee served so hot that it MELTS polyester and skin is not a product being served in a way that is appropriate for its intended use.

She was sitting in the passenger seat of her parked car and opened it to add sweetener and creamer. That is a normal thing people do. There was an issue with the lids because McD’s uses different ones now. McD’s knew the coffee was being served too hot but kept doing it to get more shelf life out of each batch. She…

If your father’s injury was caused by him accidentally spilling the coffee instead of it burning a hole through the cup, would you feel less sympathy for your father? Because if you say you would, I don’t believe you. What is it really about this clumsy, white lady that sets you off so much?

No, because you’re the one who heated up the milk to that temperature. And because we all know that if you spill hot liquid on yourself, it will burn and hurt for 10 days. The one thing you have in common with the McD plaintiff is that your risk of spilling the milk was perfectly foreseeable. People are clutzes. But…

Are you kidding? You remove the lid to add sugars. But so what? What if she had drank it? That’s what it’s for

People are crazy?

NO. Read the facts of the fucking case. She an elderly woman who got third god damn degree burns. COFFEE SHOULD NOT BE SERVED BOILING.

McDonalds disabled the safety features on its coffee machines to save money, knowingly serving a dangerous product as a result. Coffee spills; show me a coffee drinker who hasn’t spilled his/her drink. at some point. The result of such a spill should be a stain and a little stinging, not the smell of melting flesh,…

Except that spilling coffee is a foreseeable risk, and manufacturers who sell products that cause serious injuries in foreseeable instances without proper safety guards and adequate warnings (labeling a coffee “hot” when it is hot enough to burn through jeans and skin is not an adequate warning) are negligent and…

Are you trolling or did you seriously not see the multiple comments explaining how the woman ENDED UP IN THE HOSPITAL WITH SEVERE BURNS ANd $20K IN BILLS because McD’s made a little bit more money with super heated coffee they could sell faster?

How disgusting. You don’t have to willfully lie about the facts of someone else’s case in order to be upset about your own injustice. She wasn’t clumsy; the design of the lid had caused many such burns before this, but none since they redesigned it after her lawsuit. She wasn’t moving, driving, or holding the cup to…

She got third degree burns ON HER GENITALS. She needed skin grafts and spent 8 days in the hospital and then required 2 more years of medical care. She initially wanted about 20k for medical bills and lost wages (she was hospitilzed for 8 days). McDonalds offered 800$ so she sued. She didn’t get millions and she was…

“She deserved the shit she got because she was clumsy and spilled a beverage that she knew was hot on herself.”

Oh god, SHUT UP. I’d rather hear a crying baby rub her fingernails on a blackboard than two whiny lawyers arguing.

If the pub said Champagne, it has to be Champagne.

It was too hot in her case, too. The restaraunt had been warned repeatedly to lower the temp of their coffee. I’m not sure why your dad’s case invalidates hers. People are klutzy; I drop my phone four times a day at least. That’s why drive-through restaurants shouldn’t serve beverages so hot they’ll melt skin,…

Nice to see! Experiences by men and women are different and until that’s clarified we can’t make things better for either side.

Maybe, maybe not. It’s not THAT long that they’ve been together and maybe he really has made changes in her life. In high school I wouldn’t have thought twice about calling something gay. Maybe somewhere down deep I’m still that person but you won’t hear me talking that way any longer. Even if that’s the case for him…

Did she just rhyme face....... with face.
