$54 million is an awfully precise number for a pair of fucking pants. I hate this country and its willingness to sue ridiculously.

What a freakin bastard.

Electrofreak · 2007-06-15, 02:25 AM

Damn. Must have been an awfully nice pair of pants

Speaking of which, where is IHatePants?

What this country needs a judge that rules based on common sense. If I was a judge and I saw this my response would be, "Get the hell out of my courtroom and think before you sue for a company for your lost pants." Obviously the judge is an educated man.... why would an educated person ever support something as unbelievably stupid as this?

Because you have this thing called a legal system.

I don't hate this country but it does piss me off when people like that are born. They make this country look stupid, and ignorant. $54 million for a pair of pants? He doesn't deserve to live. what a fucking idiot.

He's not an idiot. Selfish law-manipulating wanker of epic proportions perhaps, but not an idiot.

He's a jerk. Or his lawyer pressed him into it.

It's not like he can ever get the money anyway, they simply don't have it.

Depends, cleaners can make alot of money if they have chains or big contracts.

My friend's fiance owns two commercial cleaning facilities and he told me that he could get rid of everything else he has (appartement complexes and the such) and live off very comfortably on those two alone. (If I'm not mistaken he has a contract with the local hospital and some other big contract...)

Also the article's not completely clear on this one, but the "judge" pressing the suit is the guy whose pants were lost, not a neutral party.

Peacemaker · 2007-06-18, 11:24 PM

No, I think the guy who's pants were lost is a judge, but not the judge of the case. He has somesort of connection with the judge though.

"WASHINGTON - A judge ruled Monday that no pair of pants is worth $54 million, rejecting a lawsuit that took a dry cleaner's promise of "Satisfaction Guaranteed" to its most litigious extreme."
