Buffal0 Bill5 Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 I found a bunch of scrubbing brush bristles (long ones) in my soup at Perkins once. They offered me a cookie. They give every kid in the place one of those cookies for free.
crazyDingo Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 THERE ARE SO MANY BAD PUNS HERE I REFUSE TO ADD ANOTHER! Maybe it was a chicken finger, they sell those. OKAY SO SUE ME.
stevestojan Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 I'll be willing to cut off a finger tip if someone else is willing to drop it in their soup at a restaurant... I think you'd have to at least pretend to eat it, and then spit it out, and throw up violently. Since it will be my finger, whatever we get in the lawsuit I expect I would get 70% to your 30% ... takers?

My prices are INSANE!
Coach Tuesday Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 It used to be you'd feel sorry for the person. These days, finding a severed body part of any kind in your food is the equivilent of winning the lottery. Damn, I want a big toe in my chilli. I bet Wendy's corporate would send you $10,000 just not to tell anyone. 286195[/snapback] Seriously. You'd be surprised how often this stuff happens, actually. People find baby mice in their Coke bottles, etc. The large settlements they receive require confidentiality. Happens all of the time. That all being said, I encourage each and every one of you to become vegetarian - it's the better life from a moral and health standpoint, (IMO obviously).

Pete Posted March 25, 2005 Author Posted March 25, 2005 I knew y'all would take the ball and run with it- damn proud of you!
Chef Jim Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Oh and BTW, better you folks don't know what really goes on back there. I have a few stories.
Coach Tuesday Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 btw, for those who care, this is the precise example they gave us in law school to explain the doctrine of "res ipsa loquitur," or, "the thing speaks for itself." In cases like these, you don't have to prove negligence - obviously someone was negligent, or there wouldn't be a finger in the chili (how could something like this happen w/o negligence)? The plaintiff (assuming no quick settlement, which is rare these days) just sits back and lets the potential defendants - Wendy's, the meat processor (assuming not a Wendy's subsidiary or indemnitee), the shipping co. - fight amongst themselves as to who will have to pay him.

Coach Tuesday Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Lawyers suck! 286685[/snapback] Until you need one, bro.
Chef Jim Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Well I've been on this planet for nearly 43 years and have never needed one. So for now they suck. When I need and use one I will readdress.
sweet baboo Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 How the hell do they explain that? Maybe they stole "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre's" family chili recipe. 285674[/snapback] precisely...perhaps some mob hit got thrown into the grinder and the finger miraculously escaped grinding when the grinder finally hit the ring on his finger and it fell off...all of it got packed up (ground mobster and finger) and shipped to wendys /yeah, i'm stretching, but it seems more interesting than a poor worker losing his finger someone just ate human chili
BILLS4LIFE Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 I dont go to Wendys anyway...just another reason to stay away.
ExiledInIllinois Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 We found this mouse in our beer, eh? Koo Ookoo koo- Koo Oook Kookoo 286669[/snapback] This thread is hysterical! I thought of the same thing... That would be Bob and Doug McKenzie trying get free beer in the movie Strange Brew?
jayg Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Sadly that it what most americans eat now. Refined, bleached staples (flour, sugar) that used to have so many nutrients that are now stripped away. Eduacate yourselves. I'll step off now. My late Grandfather worked in the South Buffalo grain mills around the turn of the century, and he once said that the best thing to happen to the milling industry was the bleaching of flour, because they no longer had to pick out the rats and birds from the grain before milling (they discolored the flour). 286173[/snapback]
jayg Posted March 25, 2005 Posted March 25, 2005 Doug Elsinores. Bob Twelve! Doug Twenty-four, yeah, twenty-four Elsinore beers. Attendant Twenty-four Elsinore! That will be $14.70. Doug I believe there will be no charge on this two-four of beer, thank you. Attendant Excuse me? Doug Ok, uh, we found this mouse in a bottle of Elsinore beer that we bought at your beer store, eh? And we heard that when that happens you get your beer free. Bob It's in the Canadian Criminal Code, eh. Like there's legal precedence set in cases in law, eh? Doug So, like give us our free beer. Attendant You want free beer? Go to the brewery. Now get out of here before I put the two of you in a bottle. Doug You sure you don't want to think this over? Attendant [seizing them both by their collars] I'm sure. Doug Ok, we're going. Bob Yeah.
