Thread Name: BS: mid-life crisis?
Subject: RE: BS: mid-life crisis?
And if you want to really carry that ideology to a ridiculous extent, how about the man (in the United States) who is suing several fast food chains such as MacDonalds, Wendy's, Kentucky Fried Chicken and I don't know what others - for making him obese! Poor eating habits lead to clogged arteries, high blood pressure, obesity, strokes, heart attacks and all kinds of problems but where do you draw the line - I mean where does personal responsibility kick in???? You can't blame fast food chains for people being overweight, and you can't blame publicans for people getting drunk. Here's a thought - If I get a triple order of extra large sized fries, burger, shake etc and sit down to eat, and it's obvious I'm going to scarf it all down myself, should a fast food employee cut me off?????
