The Stupid. It burns.
California woman sues Quaker Cereal for misleading consumers into thinking that "Cap'n Crunch Crunch Berries" is made with real fruit.
Seriously? A person is willing to admit to being *that* gullible? I mean just look at the box!
As if that wasn't bad enough, the woman claimed to have been misled . . . for four years!! So she had spent years eating the stuff! (Even a person making up a lawsuit hoping for a big payoff has to realize what kind of idiot this claim makes them look like!)
Then, even worse, add in the fact that "Crunch Berries" in general have been on the shelves for over 40 years! Which means, in nearly half a century, no one else has made this mistake.
The woman clearly has bigger problems than what is in her cereal.
Best quote by the judge who threw the case out: "As far as this court has been been made aware, there is no such fruit (as Crunch Berries) growing in the wild or occurring naturally in any part of the world."
*shudders at the stupid*

You're right! A whole separate set of jokes there! Hee!
