Ever bite into a pizza that burned the roof of your mouth really badly? I have, many times. I should have sued the shit out of Pizza Hut, damn my shortsightedness. It didn't have to be that hot. They should bake them at lower temperatures so as to avoid endangering the public.

As I said in my rant in Sidhe's forum, I think it is rather implicit that hot stuff should be allowed to cool off before being consumed. I mean, if I overheat a burrito in the Quickee Mart's microwave, then stuff it in my mouth, aren't they liable for allowing the microwaves to run long enough to make it that hot?

Where's the common sense and personal responsibility? I blame all of this on the government finally having allowed lawyers to advertise...
