    Its the American way and I think those people should be shot for being so ridiculously stupid.

    Duh if you eat McDonalds 3 times a day and get it Super Sized everytime your going to get Fat.

    If the guy who got burned by hot coffee won his suit against McDonald's, it's not a surprise if these fatties won theirs too. I guess they can't blame God for giving them slow metabolisms so they just pointed the finger at McDonald's.

    They should just do what I did. I did weight like 280 pounds. Now I'm down to 250 in six weeks on the atkins diet. I'm a pretty big guy though and built so 250 I look a little chumby. I plan on moving back into my regular eating when I hit 230 or so.

    Well nor can they blame god for making them fat, greedy, stupid prats.

    If someones fat I guess you can call them stupid or lazy, i'll explain (even though I know you dont care, but it reduces the flaming (hopefully)).

    If you eat loads and get real fat you run the risks of heart failure and stuff, same as you wouldnt walk out in front of a bus, or jump off of a cliff cos you'd die. So why eat loads and get fat, running the risk of heart failure and dieing .... kinda stupid.

    Were they forced at gunpoint into a fast food restaurant? No.
    Whose fault is it they are overweight... nobodies except their own. Have they never heard of "Free Will"? I really hope they lose their case.

    When I heard this story on the radio it just made me so angry that people are so greedy (pardon the pun) as to try to get money out of a company just because they are too fat and too stupid to eat healthily.

    "I always thought it was good for you, I never thought there was anything wrong with it."
    Yeah, all that stuff that looks like grease... it's grease you ****wit. It'll make you fat. Try actually looking at what you are shoving into your big fat gob next time.

    Ugh, morons. I love McDonalds, I have always known it's fattening, do I care? No, not really. Will I sue them for making me overweight? No, because it's my own decision to go there and eat.

    What sickens me is that it is just a day after a £40million Campaign to aid the current starvation problem in Africa.

    Sorry for being a stupid American but what is a stone?

    I also think that these people are morons. How do you not know that fast food is fattening and unhealthy? Its almost common sense these days. Stupid, stupid people. It makes me mad that people are trying to take advantage of the fact that they are stupid and fat by blaming it on someone else. :rolleyes: :grr: :grr:

    They should have spent those 40 million on guns and given them to the africians who are starving and see if the military warlords that steal all the food from the poor survive long.

    Or move the idiots out of the desert....

    I'm pretty sure that a Stone = 14 pounds.

    It is pretty annoying this one as it is clear that these people had a Choice and that is the main thing. I certainly don't think Mcdonalds sets out to deprive people of their Free Will!:hehe:

    I'm sorry but I live in America and this really ****es me off. People bitch about the taxes going up, but then don't realize that it's the same idiots awarding 2billion dollars away b/c somebody smoked and died or ate fast food and got fat. HELLO!!!! I smoke, I eat fast food, I drink, I party, I do every dam unhealthy thing there is, but I'm NOT gonna blame it on somebody else if my ass gets 40 feet wide or I die from emphisema. It's my life, my choice, I deal with the choices I make. If everyone else thought that way we wouldn't have these frivolous lawsuits that award billions of dollars to STUPID people.

    What's next??? Suing Trojan condoms b/c you were wearing one of their condoms when you got somebody pregnant and screwed up your whole life????:sigh: :sigh: :sigh:

    I know this is a bad time, but I'm sorry, I have to do this:

    I, the dumb American, hereby sue Bit-Tech.net for not warning me how addicting and expensive modding my computer would be. Their smooth internet ad campains and articles drew me in, now I'm in debt, and cut my finger off. (I'm also fat) Had someone told me modding would take all of my time and money and ruin all of my relationships/people skills, I would never have done this. They also made me eat greasy foods, which looked healthy to me.

    (btw, I am American, and am ashamed of those people, we aren't all that dumb... a little, but not that much...)

    Oh, and eat healthy and don't smoke! :dude:

    your not a red blooded american... if you were you would sue someone further up the chain that has no responsibility for your demise with much deeper pockets... your lawsuit would be like these people suing the employees at McDonalds that served them the food but they aren't doing that are they.... I say sue the ISP you use... they're the ones responsible! :dude:

    You know what? I think you are right! My ISP provider can be equated to a drug pusher. They are taking advantage of me!!! Somehow this means I get money for doing nothing, and I'll fight it tooth and nail until I get whatever it is I don't deserve. (money, in this case):grr:
