| If this guy wins there's something wrong with our court system. It shouldn't even be accepted as a case, it should be thrown out right now. No ones forcing you to watch that show | |||

| Umm, yeah...that's one of the worst stories I've heard in a while. Anyway, my brother hates that show, so if he's changing the channels around and sees that he'll just skip over it real quick. It's not that hard to do.  __________________ quaeque ipse miserrima vidi et quorum pars magna fui (All these terrible things I saw, a great part of which I was) - Virgil, The Aeneid | |||

| Hey, he made the choice to watch it. And it's not as if Fear Factor uses any false advertising. If anything, they show the most "shocking" parts during their previews. It pisses me off that people think they can sue for anything nowadays. "McDonald's made me fat!" "Fear Factor made me hit my head!"  Whatever. | |||

|  Maybe I should sue all tv networks for providing such good tv that it has stolen my social life and caused emotional distress with season finales. __________________ Everything Has It's Time And Everything Dies | |||

| Ah, that's screwed up. I'd understand if the person suing were someone who contracted an illness from eating something on Fear Factor [even though they sign a contract beforehand, don't they?], but this guy just has too much time on his hands. __________________ alright, i'll make it all up for you: i'm still in love with you, i'm still in love with you. { Lulu| icon: LittleGreyStargate } | |||

| Ultimate Fan   | It's like that woman that sued McDonalds when she spilled hot coffee on herself and she said she didn't realize that it was going to be hot. Some people do some really stupid things and I don't understand how these things get to be cases. __________________ Real Gamers Wear Pink "There is nothing to writing.

| Everybody just has it out for "the man", when in reality they're just out for "the media".  This suit is more ridiculous than the plot of many reality television shows.__________________ | |||

| One reason you know this is going nowhere is because someones already tried to pull a similar thing. At the beginning of this year a woman tried to sue over the Janet Jackson incident, saying it caused her emotional problems. She eventually dropped the suit. With that there really was no warning, with this there actually is a long warning that the people are about to eat a rat. So if she couldn't take that case to court, this guy has no chance of it. | |||
