Yeah sure this lawsuit is ok ... just like the one where the lady sued temple university hospital because an MRI scan of her head robbed her of her psychic powers. She won of course.

[Corporate Law]

Stealing an analogy from Animal House, I guess fat and stupid IS a way to go through life. Another winner in the legal system lotto.

[KayEyeDoubleDee]

oh, for crying out loud

[mombonn]

Addicted to fast food???? "I'm a bad cook"???? These people have no shame.

[DJ MacWoW]

And these, um, ahem, mental midgets never saw the salads on the menus? They could always carry their lunch. Another get rich quick scheme. Pigs in more ways than one!

[Corporate Law]

"....I ate it more often than not because I was single, it was quick and I’m not a very good cook," Barber said in an interview with Foxnews.com.

Another poster child for the Democrats: "I am lazy and stupid, therefore someone owes me." They need to suspend the license of his pinhead lawyer as well.

[Fedupwithit]

The problem with these lawsuits is that they are going to seat some jackass jury, and they are going to award millions to this fat piece of s&*t because he can't walk by a french fry without inhaling it!

Is there another place other than New York to file these lawsuits? Plenty of jackasses there...

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

OBESE?No,try a fat as* tub of guts!

[pubmom]

I would like to know exactly what these individuals are doing to help themselves now. Are they exercising? Taking supplements? Have they stopped eating the fatty foods?

Personal responsibility is dead in America. Communisim has shown that collective responsibility brings only misery, but the trial lawyers are determined to drag us down that path.

[Sunshine Sister]

I think that if this dude doesn't want to die he should get off his butt and get to work on that body. What a surprise he will have when his time comes and he dies. Who's he gonna sue for that?

[GSWarrior]

Are we to be spared nothing?!

[LouD]

The lead plaintiff, 56-year-old maintenance supervisor Caesar Barber, ate at fast food restaurants four or five times a week and blames his fatty diet for his obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol and the two heart attacks he has suffered.

Ever hear of a gym, you fat f*&k? How about the word "moderation."

[maxwell]

IT FINALLY HAPPENED, FOLKS! LET THE GAMES BEGIN! I am definitively eating Mickey D's tonight. Double cheese burger. Off the dollar menu, so make it five.

[Little Bush]

You're kidding??? McDonald's food is bad for you?

I wonder how long it will take for this Plaintiff to discover that red meat is not so good either. I wonder if that will bring a case against farmers, who will in turn bring a case against the government... the FDA!!

Of course everything causes cancer... my God, he could sue his mother... for having him and making him suffer so fatly... I mean badly!!

[SheLion]

"I got addicted to it," he said.

Food! We're talking FOOD here! FOOD!

[Retired Chemist]

Dennis Miller said this wouldn't happen until courts got drive through windows!

[SoDak]

Lawyers are destroying the country. We need tort reform NOW.

The lead plaintiff, 56-year-old maintenance supervisor Caesar Barber, ate at fast food restaurants four or five times a week and blames his fatty diet for his obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol and the two heart attacks he has suffered.

Three squares a day, last time I checked, thats a minimum of 21 meals a week. So even five times a week is less than 25% of Tubby's diet.

Frances Winn, a 57-year-old retired nurse, said her habit of eating at fast-food restaurants at least twice a week since 1975, caused her to go from a size 6 to a size 18, and inflicted her with hypertension, high cholesterol and a hyperthyroid problem.

Same for you, Fatty Franny. Where do you scoff those 4000 calories the other five days of the week?

Israel Bradley, 59, said his ritual of eating a pound of french fries a week gave him high blood pressure, diabetes, made him obese and forces him to walk with a cane.

Somethings not kosher here, Izzy. You don't get that way from less than 2 1/2 oz. of fries a day.

I hope Mickey D has the guts to call Dr. Atkins at the trial so he can point these larda$$e$ to the error of their ways.

[yankeedame]

The lead plaintiff, 56-year-old maintenance supervisor Caesar Barber...

I see. This guy is a 56 year old bachelor...He is a janitor ("maintenance supervisor")...and he is tubby. I bet we all know what this guy looks like without even seeing his picture.

"Hello,Mr. Barber"

"Hello, Mrs. Levi. How are you today?"

"Aey, don't ask. My hip...its throbbing like a drum! OOO...I see you got yourself a new pair of pants. Bet they're more comfortable,too. So? What'll it be today? The regular?"

"Sure. But,uh, give me a couple of them cookie things too."

"You want I should make two like usual? One for here and one to go? You know, you should meet a nice girl and settle down. That way you could have home cooked meals instead of this stuff. You know,Mr. Barber, doctors they say this stuff ain't so good all the time."

"Doctors! Ha! What do they know?"

[Desdemona]

Lazy, lazy, lazy.

Good heavens, is the victim status now so entrenched that bad personal habits are not one's own fault? Wait. Never mind.
