Goddamn do I ever get tired of this undying misunderstanding of the McDonald's Coffee Lady.
1. McD's served coffee at temperatures capable of causing injuries requiring skin grafts. 2. As a result of multiple lawsuits McD's was ordered to lower the temperature of their coffee. 3. They didn't, at least not across the entire company. 4. A lady bought a cup of their coffee and (stupidly, but hey) managed to spill it all over her lap, necessitating skin grafts. 5. She sued McD's for medical costs. 6. The jury learned about McD's history of letting this happen and decided to punish them. 7. The award was reduced on appeal.
Key points - McD's was grossly negligent and the lady was not being greedy.
