So a stockbroker that weighs 290 pounds is suing White Castle for the sizes of the booth seats, saying it is violation to the Americans with disabilities act.:roll:

Depending what state you live in, it is. Many people will balloon up so the government will have to pay them $50k/year.

Being morbidly obese is a disability.

And I just can't get past how fat this country continues to get. Someone who is so fat that they can't fit in a booth is suing a fast food joint because they couldn't sit down to get MORE fast food. At some point people need to start looking at what they're doing to their own bodies.

When the fat reaches your brain to make you do stupid things... it becomes a disability.

P.S.: You're the reason why HL2 EP3 (or HL3) isn't out yet. You've been promising to give Freeman beer yet you never ever gave him any and he's pissed... What do you have to say for yourself Mr Calhoun.

He isn't 700 lbs. It's not a disability. He's just fat. Maybe if he ate at white castle less he'd be able to fit in the booths.

Maybe he thinks that tiny burgers = less fat than a big burger. So he probably eats like 5 before he thinks he had a regular burger's worth. :o

They should narrow the doorways too so he can't even fit into the building, consider it a proactive way of trying to stop obesity.

It's like population stability but instead of the world not being able to support the population anymore the hamburger joint can't fit him. Kind of poetically just really.

Why would you hope he wins? If he's going to be fat, it's his own fault...and that's coming from someone who loves fast food.

Why is everyone acting like this guy is serious... This is a get rich quick scheme plain and simple... Why is everyone going "wow fat guy sues to fit in seats and get fatter"... I mean seriously, are people that dense?

He goes to court, cites ADA, White Castle fights it, he goes on the news "White Castle doesn't care about disabled people and says the ADA doesn't matter!" --- White Castle settles out of court so he stfu's...

Just like the lady who was burnt with the McDonalds coffee... Just like the people who sniffed compressed air, just like the idiots who held fire crackers in their hands...

Any accomadation and any warning anywhere for anything was made because someone sued someone else over it...

I suppose enablers like White Castle should realize that wider chairs and booths would eventually be necessary.

Just so we're clear, the lady who got burnt by the coffee had to recieve skin grafts. There's a difference between how hot you think coffee should be and THIRD DEGREE BURNS.

It's funny that he's too fat to sit in a booth in a fast food restaurant. Sort of ironic to me. How about going on a non-fast food diet and trying some exercise. If you're a stockbroker, I'm sure you can afford a personal trainer. More needless lawsuits.

Unless exercise and proper eating habits is a way. If not than you are correct there is no way. It would be to much to ask.
