Check your clock! We fell back awhile ago…..you know that worthless thing we must do twice a year….and the lie of “Daylight Savings”……it is an hour earlier than you may think.
Sunday has come and I have heard it all now…….(well for the time being….I am sure something else will come along any day now)……
Remember when some woman sued McDonald’s because the coffee was hot? And won! I can beat that!
Well the town where I live is out doing that frivolous lawsuit…..
A Mississippi attorney is suing Popeyes after he says he choked when he had to eat a piece of fried chicken with his hands because a knife wasn’t included in his drive-thru order.
Paul Newton Jr., who filed the lawsuit this week, says the only utensil he was given last November at the Gulfport restaurant was a spork.
The lawsuit states that because Newton didn’t receive a plastic knife, his only option was to hold the chicken breast with his hands and tear off pieces with his teeth, causing him to choke.
The lawsuit says Newton underwent emergency surgery to remove the piece of chicken from his throat.
Along with knives for all drive-thru customers’ orders, Newton is also seeking financial compensation and punitive damages from several defendants.

Seriously? This prima dona was never taught how to eat fried chicken? What was his mother doing during his informative years……drugs? He lives in the South…..I mean fingers were standard eating tools until year 2000.
This douche is probably an ambulance chaser looking to make a name for himself and/or a quick buck…..a settlement before it goes to court.
What kind of moron cannot eat fried chicken without hurting himself?
I’ll bet ribs really throws this moron for a loop.
Ever since the publication of the book, “Sue The Bas*ards” it has been a hobby or a passtime of many Americans to bring lawsuits for any number of causes, some frivolous and some not. But suing people is The American Way these days.
My grandfather called it the American lawsuit lotto….LOL
LOL for real!
My daughter said that this idiot has dropped is suit….but this guy and his hat size must be about the same….
Pings are appreciated….chuq
WTH..
Really! How dense do you have to be to not know how to eat chicken?
Really…. one might think lawyers had a sense of humor. I certainly thought so back in the 60’s, when some lady in SF sued the city, and won, when she claimed falling off a cable car turned her into a nymphomaniac…. I forget the settlement, but, at least the papers had a good time with it. What kind of fun can be had with somebody choking on chicken? Oh…. okay. I guess we could caution folks about driving while choking chickens….
Hah!…. Mama Gump had it right, didn’t she?….
gigoid, the dubious
Choking chickens…..brilliant! chuq
*smile* Couldn’t resist….
Made my day with a good laugh…thanx….chuq
Nice post!
Really enjoyed this!🙂
People of Mississippi are not the sharpest pencils in the box now are they…LOL chuq
😄
There is yet another definition for “Choking The Chicken” but I do not think I will go further into detail on this respectable forum here.
My man gigoid brought that same point up….it is brilliant….
Gigoid the Dubious … a great intellect.
LOL…yes indeed….
I used to call him “Mr. Gigoid” back when he was a regular commenter on my blog.
He had a problem with pain and took some time off…he is starting to get back into the swing of things….
A great guy!
Conversation from the old movie, “Folks” – “You’d have him sue his own son?” Retired lawyer, “He’s an American, it’s his right to sue.”
Yeah we Americans seem to think that is the answer to everything….chuq
How do you eat fried chicken? With gusto of course … and preferably fully clothed … especially if you are eating it in the company of strangers.
LOL
Two things:
Firstly, was that moron just fitted with new teeth? I mean seriously the word “chew” is not just a placeholder in the dictionary.
Secondly, Lawyers taking these type of cases should have a Class Action Lawsuit filed against them by everyone waiting to be heard in a Court of Law. The charge: Delay of Due Process
I have heard that he withdrew the suit….I mean he would have to stand up in court and say that he was too stupid to eat chicken without hurting himself…..if si it is a wise choice….
Thanks for the update.
