McDonald’s is being sued over a hot coffee spill, again.

This time, a San Francisco location is being accused of serving a “scalding” cup of coffee with an improperly attached lid, which allegedly resulted in the coffee pouring out on plaintiff Mable Childress’ body and causing “severe burns” after she tried drinking it.

The lawsuit, filed last week, alleged that the elderly woman is suffering from “physical pains, emotional distress and other damages.” The restaurant’s negligence was a “substantial factor” for her injuries, it alleged.

Childress also said in the lawsuit that the restaurant employees “refused” to help her, a point that the McDonald’s denied.

      “Next” “they”

      Who are they? And next implies they’ve taken something away already. What has been taken from you?

          “They” is in reference of the user LiveLGNProsper… Now, do either of you know how to use context? Or are you just trying to make lame jokes?

          “Either of you” is in reference of the user prole and you.

          “You” is in reference of you, bizzle.

          Now that I (BenderOver) GAVE you (bizzle) the context, are you (bizzle) capable of answering my (BenderOver) questions (the string of words with the ‘?’ at the end?)? Or do you (bizzle) need more of a dumbed down explanation…? I (BenderOver) am here for you (bizzle). Just let me (BenderOver) know.

        It seems pretty obvious that “they” is McDonalds.

        McDonalds adds and removes things from their menu all the time. The McRib, Szechuan Sauce, and all day breakfast to name a few well known things. Most recently I heard they were removing the bake shop stuff.
