Of course, this is America. Do you actually expect people to take responsibility for their own actions? Good God, man... what were you thinking?

Shouldn't that be Fast and Furious, Fats and Furious could be dangerous too.

Read an interesting peice in yesterday's WSJ about how the production company is playing the liability angle- public service ads from the actors saying "don't do this at home", these are trained drivers, yadda, yadda, but they don't want to do too much of that because that will demonstrate that they are concerned that others will do dumb things based on the movie... Catch 22.
by the way, love your sig- it is appropriate for this topic!

I watched Cast Away last night. This weekend I plan on crashing my 747 in the Pacific and spending some time on an island. Hope to see you guys in about four years.

Sure blame the entertainment industry and accept zero responsibility for one's actions. Don't you just love the American way...

I clicked in thinking of fat jokes or some type of discrimination against overweight ppl

Heard the news before. There's a fine line between fun and danger.
