Replying to Glofkill · I would love to see the Majlis al-Jinn. It looks so beautiful online, I want to see it for myself.

I am Gov. Gary Johnson, the Libertarian candidate for President. AMA.

Replying to speusippus · What about the states that have changed their constitutions to define marriage as "between a man and a woman?" It's fairly obvious that some state governments are backwards when it

Replying to Guvante · Actually it was a judge on appeal that lowered the punitive damage amount. Historically the cap has been 10x or more, but the judicial system has been lowering the cap, for instanc

AMA Request: Someone that actually won the McDonald's Million Dollar's Monopoly Game

Replying to eclecticzebra · With a hot drink? That's why cup holders exist...

That is why they found her 20% liable. McDonald's lost the suit due to gross negligence because of the extreme temperature of the coffee. If it was a reasonable temperature, they would have won. It's reasonable to assume the responsibility of minor burns because you spilled a hot…
