Don’t Let Lawyers Sue The Stuffing Out Of You This Thanksgiving
Center for Consumer Freedom ^ | November 16, 2007

Posted on 11/16/2007 7:07:41 PM PST by Eric Blair 2084

Pleading "Don't Sue the Hand That Feeds You," the Center for Consumer Freedom offers our 2007 Thanksgiving Guest Liability and Indemnification Form to keep your holiday cook in the clear. To prevent greedy trial lawyers from wrangling your guests into suing you for contributing to the so-called "obesity epidemic," we have prepared this essential liability waiver. Make sure all your Turkey Day guests sign it.

Our Thanksgiving Guest Liability and Indemnification Form comes in carbon-copy triplicate for proper record-keeping come court time. The Agreement prevents your guest from suing you by duly warning him or her that dangerous conditions, risks, and hazards may lurk in the turkey, stuffing, vegetables, cranberry sauce, fixings, drinks, desserts, appetizers, and any or all other comestibles that may be served.

Most importantly, by signing the Agreement your guest agrees "not to appear as a witness in support of John 'Sue The Bastards' Banzhaf, Esq., or any other persons with law degrees who cannot otherwise find meaningful employment, at any time in the future." Click here to download your own Agreement. You'll be thankful you did.

No waiver for stepping out back after dinner and lighting up a favorite cigar?

I’m surprised this thread didn’t get more responses. Everyone celebrates Thanksgiving and everyone eats.

It’s a really funny waiver to print out.

All this isn’t need, you put a bowl of some healthy crud like organic tofu and bean sprouts, and the rest of the dinner and let people serve themselves. They were free to choose.

Then if your in California post this sign.

Good day, Gabz. My Thanksgiving turkey is nanny-state-free this year. I drove 70 miles (out of nanny-state Ohio) to Erie, PA last week and played slots for a couple hours (gambling is against the State’s Constitution). I earned enough points/comps for a free turkey. I was even “allowed” to have in a smoke (after asking others around me if they did not mind) with my cup of tea (oh, the horror). I met a handful of very, very nice people, too. Imagine that! LOL. :-) Happy Thanksgiving, fellow Freepers. God bless us.
