People,

On Saturday Jordan and I were dining in one of New York City's finest restaraunts, McDonald's, on 8th St. and 3rd Ave. You've maybe heard of it, I think it's gotten five stars in Zagat's or something.

Anywho, as we're waiting to be served we see a new installation on the wall. McDonald's has put up a huge display of their nutritional information, including pamphlets with advice on eating healthily. That's all fine and good, but there's also a sign on the wall that in effect says "yada yada yada. We're McDonald's. Yay. Anywho, we're being sued by a bunch of people who got fat from eating our food, so be aware that it might not be the healthiest stuff on the planet. Yada yada yada."

Is this really what the level of personal responsibility has slipped to in this country? McDonald's isn't healthy for you. No shit. Smoking also isn't good for you, and neither is bashing yourself in the head with rocks. It's common sense. If you got fat from a steady diet of McDonald's, and you claim that you were unaware this would happen, then you shouldn't be suing McDonald's, you should be suing your parents for making you stupid. I mean, come on folks.

Anyway, that's my rant for the day. Ooops, I just scraped myself on the edge of the keyboard. Someone will pay for this........
