A recent news story has grabbed my attention and stands as a perfect example of why I can’t find anyone at Home Depot to answer my legitimate and important questions. Its not their fault, they have to tend to more important issues like making sure some moron checks his toilet seat before sitting down. Or knowing Home Depots upstanding reputation they probably went a step further and stationed someone in the bathroom to wipe this guys ass so he doesn’t “feel like he’s having a heart attack”.
I personally think this guy got what he had coming to him. Nobody I know would use a public rest room without so much as glancing at the seat. And if I were to do that, I would be thankful that what I sat in was only glue, good old sterile glue. Perhaps this is why they put ass gaskets in the stalls. Home Depot covered their bases, why couldn’t this guy? Still, they are getting hit with a 3 million dollar lawsuit! Unbelievable. FOR WHAT! The only thing they could do, they did. Sure it took a minute or two, but honestly, if some nutbag was yelling from in the stall, I’d let him “rot” as well. The best I would have done was go to the paint thinner aisle and slide a can under the stall. Beyond that, your on your own. Meanwhile they call the fire department and paramedics to the scene and take them away from real emergencies. Oh and by the way, this happened in 2003! (Two years ago for the mathematically challenged), why are we hearing about this now? And heres another little pearl of information: Same thing happened to him a year earlier at a Visitor’s Center, only then, he was brave enough to heroically pry himself free on his own. Whew! Thank god! Now he can drive up the price of nails by faking the same trick at Home Depot!
Faker!
If I was the judge in this case, I would not only throw this case out as a frivolous piece of trash, I would fine the lawyers and if that wasn’t legal, I’d at the very least charge this guy with destroying private property and make him pay for all the emergency crews, not to mention court costs. And if at all possible, I’d go Abu Grab on him and make him stand on a box with a hoody and nipple clamps. Maybe then he’d learn a lesson.
I’m sick to death of all these idiots and their stupid claims filed to get rich off innocent people. I blame lawyers for encouraging this kind of behavior and the judges who hand out winning judgements.
If you go to McDonald’s get coffee (a typically hot beverage) then, put it between your legs while driving too fast over speed bumps, you get what you get. Not McDonald’s fault.
And because of these losers, we have warnings on everything you pick up now-a-days. And maybe its just my lack of patience, but when I do actually read the instructions that come with something I have to assemble, (instead of just looking at the picture on the box) I now have to trudge through 5 pages worth of things not to do in order to start assembly. Nice work dipsh*ts! (I had to censor myself for the more sensitive members of my audience.)

YOU'RE A LITTLE HARSH AND ''THE LITTLE ASS-WHIPER''ARN'T YOU NOT!!!!!!! YOU GO SON. I HOPE HOMEDEPOT SEES YOU LETTER. ACTUALLY I THINK YOU SHOULD SEND A COPY TO THE NEWSPAPER. YOU NEVER KNOW THEY MIGHT CLEAN IT UP A BIT AND PUBLISH IT. A LOT OF PEOPLE FEEL AS YOU DO. THERE ARE OUT THERE AND AROUND EVERY CORNER JUST WAITING TO SUE.
Ok. I will be the defender of others. I don't agree with all the time spent suing people but before you behead him, at least maybe base your judgement on something other than the media's portrayal of the incident. The media likes to get people excited about things...that's their job. Maybe some kid did it as a prank and the guy didn't have enough common sense to figure something out. Maybe the cup design at McDonald's was defective and leaked from the lid and this brought it to their attention. Or maybe it was really greedy people looking for a cheap get rich quick scheme.

I think that you were just looking for something to grab on to to vent your frustrations. Good Job! Life as we know it isn't perfect and there are lots of people out there who feel that life owes them - it doesn't but you will never convince them of it. Meantime you are right - we all have to read pages of "instructions' that we really should not have to read if we use the common sense that God gave us. Oh - just for the record - I don't like anonymous people. I feel that if you want to state your opinion you should at least sign it - but again that is just my opinion:)
to my "anonymous defender of others" beheadings a good idea I had not thought of. Good job!
