Default It is Baseball's fault (Pete Rose)

Kenny, I dunno, blame me for having too much common sense, but I have a really hard time seeing how someone who served a cup of coffee is responsible for someone getting burned when put the stuff between their legs. Coffee is hot. If you are stupid enough to put it between your legs, then you deserve to get burned. I personally don't care what the law says, this is one of those cases where common sense should tell you that you don't put hot things between your legs, or anywhere else that it might easily burn you.

One of the most rediculous cases I remember while being in CA was a guy who bought a late 60s muscle car. He wrecled it and hurt himself badly shortly after buying it. He sued the car dealer saying that the dealer should have made sure that he qualified to drive a car like that. Just another case where the law is wrong and gives people the oppurtunity to not take responisblity for their own stupidity.
