140 = hot. Common Sense.
180 = hot. Common Sense.
Hot = Hot. Common sense.
Coffee = Hot. Common sense.
You telling me you won't get badly burned from 140 degree coffee? Wanna dump 140 degree coffe in your lap? Fine by me. 140 or 180, I know that I would never put anything hot (she knows that coffee is coffee is served hot) near my crotch. The point that everybody (including you) is missing and discounting is that she was carelessly handling the coffee. She palyed a major role in her own misfortune. Personal liability and responsibility for one's actions are legal points. Trust me, my grasp of the legal system is just fine, don't you worry. The issue with this case is (and henceforth the reason for this thread) is that those points were barely considered at all.
Let me reiterate: It is simple common sense to carefully hadle things that are hot. Coffee is inherently hot. If you don't know the exact temprature of a liquid you are handling, but know it to even be potentially hot, chances are you should not be taking risks by handling it in such a way as to facilitate its ablitiy to harm you. She took a risk, she got hurt, she should be hel responsible for her actions.
I guess I'm just wasting my time. You can't ague sense to those who have none
And arguing over the internet just isn't me...belive whatever you want
