Buying a circular saw and accidentally sawing off your thumb doesn't seem to implicate the saw company, because we all acknowledge the risk of accident here.It depends on the nature of the saw (ie its design and manufacturing, as well as other considerations in its distribution). You're attempting to simplify the considerations at play in negligence and product liability suits in a way that, flat out, is not representative of reality. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

ThePieReborn 02/09/21 9:17:38 PM #6 | I have not, and it's almost entirely because I just felt... there wasn't any real point? I see ME as being all about the Reaper conflict, and so it just felt wrong(?) to divert away from that and the main cast. I would have rather had expansion of the big squadmate's backstories.

ThePieReborn 02/09/21 2:53:45 PM #73 | The answer is "maybe." Because the resolution of questions of fact only binds within the same matter, and the issues of breach, causation, and damages are questions of fact. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

ThePieReborn 02/09/21 2:19:38 PM #69 | CommonGrackle posted... I'm sure there are good legal arguments here that supersede all commonsense...but she nonetheless spilled the stuff on herselfCommon sense would dictate that people spilling thing, especially in a vehicle, is an event reasonably likely to occur. Common sense would further dictate that a near boiling temperature liquid would be very likely to cause significant burns if spilled. Common sense would even further dictate that it would be prudent to take reasonable care to not aggravate the outcome of an event reasonably likely to occur. The case was not a result of arcane legal doctrines that "supersede common sense." --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

ThePieReborn 02/09/21 1:46:34 PM #63 | RadiantJoyrock posted... Difference here is her dropping the coffee was a legitimate accident, no negligence on her part, so she's completely reasonable in suing when the injuries resulting from it are so much more severe than they should've been.Negligence on her part wouldn't preclude recovery (New Mexico was and still is a "pure" comparative fault jurisdiction), so whether she was negligent goes only to the question of calculating compensatory damages to be awarded. --- Party leader, passive-aggressive doormat, pasta eater extraordinaire! |

Leno is singled out because a lot of people dislike him, but she was mocked on Letterman and Conan too.It was a result of two things: 1. Most people not knowing shit about tort law, and 2. The omission or downplaying of the extent of the woman's injuries.

Like, I struggle to beat the first level on higher difficulties.I mean, the first couple levels of Blood are harder than the vast majority of the rest of the vanilla game and Cryptic Passage. If RNG isn't with you in an early shotgun and accompanying ammo drops, it can be a slog.
