If I Die.....

Let's see if I understand how the world works lately...

If a man cuts his finger off while slicing salami at work, he blames the restaurant.

If you smoke three packs a day for 40 years and die of lung cancer, your family blames the tobacco company.

If your neighbor crashes into a tree while driving home drunk, he blames the bartender.

If your grandchildren are brats without manners, you blame television.

If your friend is shot by a deranged madman, you blame the gun manufacturer.

And if a crazed person breaks into the cockpit and tries to kill the pilot at 35,000 feet, and the passengers kill him instead, the mother of the deceased blames the airline.

I must have lived too long to understand the world as it is anymore. So, if I die while my old, wrinkled butt is parked in front of this computer, I want you to sue Bill Gates ...okay?

Don't forget that if you get incredibly fat, you can sue McDonald's ©.

Sure is a fubar'd world in some ways!

Or is it a fubar'd legal system... *ponders* :confused:

So freakin true! I work in a hotel, and we just had this lady this past spring who just plain old slipped off the curb and smacked her face on the ground. She immediately came in with her family and was talking about suing before she was even asking for help for her injury. There was nothing for her to slip on, and the sidealks had just been redone so they were smooth and even, she just missed the curb and fell. Anytime anything happnes to someone that would be just a accident at their home, they first think about suing. I guess maybe it's just how I was brought up, but I just don't get the mentality. If I slip and fall, it's my fault...plain and simple.

It'll get better. Being with RD only makes you feel like you are going to die.

If you trip over your own kids in a furniture store, you sue the store. And win.
