The Perfect FB Lawsuit

I found this quote pretty funny:

Charter’s director of government and public relations for eastern Wisconsin, John Miller, says he doesn’t take the threat of a lawsuit seriously.

“Even though we consider our services to be a very powerful entertainment product, I don’t think it’s reached a medical level yet where it could be proved to be addictive,” Miller said.

I would love to have seen the look on this guy's face when he made that statement.

I hear they are also suing manufacturers of cheese and pork rinds.
