That reminds me of the recent story about a family that was upset that they couldn't legally name their kid "4 Real."

Better than just Sullivan Marciano, which in Portuguese, would mean that's a Sullivan (me! NO! :( ) from Mars. 8|

It make us what we are... And remember that Vel isn't really one of us, he just lives here because genocide is frowned upon. But we're working on it.

Don't worry, there are plenty trials with stupid claims from where we come from too.

hmm I think we (usa) may have the creme de la creme of silliness. The McDonald's hot coffee incident. Yeah, I know when I order coffee I expect it to be almost cold (insert sarcasm). So somebody orders coffee, spills it on themselves and sues McDonalds because it is hot. Hmm coffee, hot, really???? wow, that is a shock. Now everything has to come with some of the most rediculous warnings. I bought a close hamper, that had the warning not to put a child in the hamper. A microwave also had that warning. Next thing you know, when it snows, the city will have to put up "Snow is cold, can cause adverse reactions" signs..hehe
Warning, may cause confusion, blindness, raising of eybrows, and insanity. Image
