This got me curious so I looked it up, apparently it's a common urban legend about some senior
lady popping their pet in the microwave to dry off
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/the-microwaved-pet/
There are, however, some rather sad and distressing articles of people deliberately microwaving
animals, there's one I found while looking this urban legend up of a woman doing it to "punish" a
4 month old kitten who tried to go for her goldfish by putting it to microwave for 5 minutes and
the cat unfortunately died only 90 mins after.
Then there's that twitter post I remember from a few years back where some chick put the pet
turtle in the microwave, so while the scenario as presented in the video is false, that doesn't
stop shitty people from doing shitty things I guess

it's more of a critique of the american legal system where you literally cannot expect people to
have common sense and if someone pours hot coffee all over themselves it's your fault as the
coffeemaker because you didn't put a microscopic tag on there somewhere saying that you are not
allowed to pour hot coffee all over yourself

lol this reminded me of the other absurd Mcdonald's lawsuit of the day: the time that woman found
a chicken head with her otherwise tasty mcnuggets. she tried to sue for "psychological trauma".

Was Kid the same VA who did Chiyo's father in Azumanga Daioh?

The problem with the famous "McDonald's hot coffee" case is that they served the coffee way in
excess of drinkable temps, with the expectation people would be picking up and taking it to the
office or wherever before drinking. This made sense back before every fat fuck behind the wheel
has to drive with a burger in one hand and an XL soda in the other the second they pull out of
the drive-thru line.

If you think that's bad wait till you get a load of OSHA!!!!111
oh wait... osha actually saves lives every day. Personally, having been in the oil drilling
business around the world, I believe common sense does NOT grow on vines. You CANNOT expect
people to do safe things. We are surrounded by dangerous and complex machines in our home. How
can we expect any laymen to know the properties of electricity, and to handle it safely. Or how
to operate a blender, or how to use chemicals like bleach.
All this knowledge must be taught. Taught through cultural immersion. In America, it's the
company's responsibility to teach the consumer, the layman, how to use their product.

yeah, but then teach people how to do stuff and not put them in a state where they are
practically just waiting to run blindly into shit and then make it everyone else's fault
personally no amount of text on a coffee cup would ever change my behaviour of not just spilling
it all over me without even kinda approaching it and see how hot it is/how it smells/tastes
that way you just breed an inept and ignorant culture
you are responsible for your own life and happiness, isn't that even the "american way"
sure, there is a line to be drawn somewhere, but it sure as hell isn't at rock bottom
