This is just stupid.

Agreed

Haha.

I seriously doubt that woman wants her practices drawn before a court.

nearly as bad as sueing Mcdonalds, but not quite

This is just stupid.

Stupid like a Fox!

/Wishes he'd thought of it if he were living in a litigious society.

nearly as bad as sueing Mcdonalds, but not quite

Suing McDonalds for what?

Suing McDonalds for what?

Some woman sued McDonalds for making her son fat because he ate there 3 times a day

Suing McDonalds for what?

Being fat.

Wow, it's a wonder she didn't predict this happening.

Thread over, you win! *hands you a cookie*

Okay, that's acceptable. Whenever people parade out the hot coffee lawsuit, I get enraged.

Why don't they put her in the next probe. Because people like her must be a waste of space on this planet.

I concur. Santa Barbara wins the internet.

I submitted link to Fark...

Ive had to answer phones for NASA in the past. You would be amazed at the number of psycho calls we get. Here are some examples:

1. I need you to move that satellite you have over my house cus its _____(fill in some crazy blank such as "making my dog go crazy")_____
2. You guys implanted something in my head and now the music wont stop, I need you to shut it off.
3. I found a piece of the shuttle in my yard (and caller id reveals there is no way this is possible).
4. Im sick of you guys watching me all the time, why wont you leave me alone?

Actually, #1 is very very common and is often combined with #4.

Thread over, you win! *hands you a cookie*

Yay, a cookie!


I concur. Santa Barbara wins the internet.

Ack! Al Gore!

Oh the irony. Will Cold War victories ever stop biting you in the ass?

Oh brother. Now I've heard everything.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh my gosh! Will the stupidity ever end? Astrology is nothing but making people believe what they want. It is just another old woman PO'd about the cold war. Man, people are so greedy these days.

You know if she somehow wins (and that's one HUGE somehow, like zombie apocolypse somehow) I wonder how long it's going to take before everyone with the same horoscope starts to send in those lawsuits...

Okay, that's acceptable. Whenever people parade out the hot coffee lawsuit, I get enraged.

Not acceptable. Anyone who eats McDonalds 3 times a day is an idiot.

This makes the McDonald's lawsuits look like regular cases. You know if it wasnt for idiocy like this life wouldnt be worth living. :rolleyes:

OH NOES! You sunk my horoscope!

Lol. That's great.

:rolleyes:

I think people like this should loose thier case, pay court costs and a hefty fine for filing such a frivlous lawsuit.

The lawyer doesn't care, he's getting paid whether it wins, loses, or is countersued. :mad:

Still, it's good to hear about rockets and probes ramming things.

Nice to know that kind of crap isn't confined to the USA. Whatcha wanna bet this twit had never HEARD of Comet Tempel 1 before this experiment?

:D

Time to call Maddox to beat some ass....

A >>REAL<< astrologer wouldn't be bothered by such a minor disruption and would easily adjust her predictions :D

Still, it's good to hear about rockets and probes ramming things.

I hear they're sending a probe to Uranus soon. :rolleyes:

Sence someone brought maddox up....

Maddox's insight. (http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=astrology)

She should have played her cards right and gone to the UN. It would have been an open and shut case in her favor.

Wow...

the price of democracy...

I guess this means that the Russians have finally run out of nukes to sell, and have to make ends meet by fileing frivolus lawsuits against companies rich enough to pay them...

Sorry, russians, but the russian joke is just too easy...

People like her should be shot on site. No, im not kidding :p.

Really, the sad thing isnt really the woman suing, its the fact the court decided to hear the case instead of just snickering and throwing it out instantly...now both sides will waste a godly amount of money.

A really simple way to stop these lawsuits is making a law that the loser must pay the legal bills of the winner. simple as that. People will only sue when its justified.

Not acceptable. Anyone who eats McDonalds 3 times a day is an idiot.

If they continue to give in, then there should be a law against it. And they can't complain.

In Soviet Russia horoscope predicts you![/Obligatory]

Ah hell, a "real" astrologer would've known that it would be hit!

I could've sworn I had already made a thread about this...

And Golf, you seriously overestimate human intelligence and common sense.

People will do anything for money these days. sheesh. No one wants to be fair at work for something anymore.

That threw me off...

And it's for reasons like this I hate the system of litigation

People like her should be shot on site. No, im not kidding :p.

I agree.

This is just stupid.
It is, indeed, very stupid. She is a fool.
