A strange and terrible weekend

That poor woman. All she wanted was a cup of coffee, and now she's a pariah.

That "poor" woman sued because she spilled coffee on herself.

She deserves to be a pariah - she is a symbol of a new social phenomenon whereby the responsibility of the irresponsible is transferred to the nearest deep pocket by 12 neanderthal jurors and unethical attorneys.

I don't blame the woman for spilling coffee in her lap. I do it all the time. I do, however, blame her, her attorney and a broken legal system (that the trial lawyers want to stay broke) for basically stealing three million dollars in plain sight.

And I'm supposed to feel sorry for her? How's that?
