I still think one should take personal responsibility for not pouring boiling liquids over oneself - if a waiter had done it, or the cup had broken, I could understand McDonald's culpability.
I mean, you've just told me "Next time you boil water for something, stick your hand in it for a sec- see if it's the same as getting scalded". If I take your advice, and get badly burned, would it be fair for me to sue you? Or would it be down to my own stupidity?
I'd go for the latter case, personally!  |
