The guy waited two years before filing a lawsuit? Oh, that's right. John Edwards was busy for much of 2004.

Good thing I'm not on the jury. His humiliation would just be starting.

My favorite is putting saran wrap (clear) over the bowl, but under the seat...

Mean but funny.

He rotted? In 15 minutes? I would have ripped my skin off before being carried thru the store on a commode.

I had to wait in line for 15 minutes at a Home Depot. I'm suing.

Baloney claim.

For one, if there was "glue" on the seat you would have to have smelled it just entering the restroom.

Two, you would have seen it on the seat. Or noticed something was on the toilet seat.

Three, the likelyhood the person sat on the seat and immediately didn`t realize there was something on the seat is rather unbelieveable. You would immediately get up, and I doubt any glue would have the ability to keep a person from not standing up in a matter of seconds.

Now if he sat on the seat for sometime, then I could see him getting stuck. But for that to happen, all the other things I mentioned would have to be ignored.

Sounds like a scam to me.

This was a cruel stunt & I'm sorry he was recovering from bypass surgery, but being left for 15 mins isn't exactly being left "to rot"

"They left me there, going through all that stress,"

Sounds like he needs more fiber in his diet.

I know how he feels. Hurt a lot when it happened to me too.

I would have done the same. Next case please!

Could have been worse. Did he have McDonald's coffee with him?

Who sits on a public toilet seat without cleaning it first?

LOL! Upon first reading this I assumed it was a model toilet on the showroom floor. I was wondering why the hell he had his pants down!
