# Peanuts!
I believe it was tesco's products, that the packet contained the warning:

"This product may contain nuts"

I fukking hope it does, or ive just paid for a bag of nothing!

# yeah....
Although, I suppose its one of those things they have to do, because you should never ever underestimate the intense stupidity of the general public. No doubt someone, somewhere has been sued because someone burnt their lips on a piping hot cup of coffee....

# like the famous case of the woman in the states
who won something like $13 million from macdonalds because she spilled hot coffee on her lap after getting it from their drive-thru

# which did
in fact cause severe burns to her lips.

which is pretty normal, considering a good cup of coffee is served at about 85-90 degrees, and made at a nice 95 degrees.

# Although,
Macdonalds had been warned that their cups were unsafe and had chosen to ignore it, several other people had already been badly burned, the coffee was actually considerably hotter than any cup you might make yourself because the design of the cup kept all the heat in - and basically, she had every right to sue. There are more than enough genuinely frivolous lawsuits around without building up urban legends around ones were there was a good reason for it. Oh, and she got nowhere near 13 million.

# you could sue macdonalds or starbucks under the trades description act
(there needs to be a ' in there somewhere)

# because some nobber had a cup of coffee with no lid on
sat in her car, wedged it between her legs then drove off and sued the company who sold the coffee to her (or at least tried to)

# Hang on, a toilet seat fell on a man's cock?
Think about it. Either he was a midget, and had draped his cock across the rim of the bog, or had a very long penis. The arc of a falling bog seat would miss even my enormous trouser snake.
