In a case that should be a new benchmark for frivolous lawsuits, “lawyers have filed a class-action lawsuit against McDonald’s on behalf of New York children who have suffered health problems, including diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity.” Pretty damn stupid, right? Wait until you hear about some of the plaintiffs: “a Bronx teen who ate every meal at McDonald’s for three years while living in a homeless shelter” and “a 13-year-old boy from Staten Island who says he ate at McDonald’s food three to four times a week and is now 5-foot-4 and 278 pounds.” Why the judge didn’t laugh in those lawyers’ faces, explain to them what the term “parental supervision” means, and throw some French Fries at them I just don’t understand…
