The world and the people in it are becoming dumber every day. Although we are surrounded by idiots, there are a handful of frivolous savants that put the human race to shame.
For example, a woman playing golf hit the ball into railroad tracks only to find the ball crashing back in her face. Horrible coincidence right? The courts didn’t think so and awarded her $40,000.
How about a $2 million dollar paint job? A guy bought a BMW only to find out it had been repainted prior to his purchase due to damage from acid rain. His reward… $2,004,000.
A Swedish man donated his sperm to a lesbian couple so they could start a family. However, the same sex relationship did not last and one of the woman ended up suing the biological father for child support. She won and now this generous sperm donor is coughing up over $3,000 a year.
Ever walked by a vending machine and had it fall on you? This does not happen by chance. A teen was trying to steal a soda and his struggle to save a buck ended up costing him his life when the soda machine fell on top of him. His family sued Coca Cola for over a half million, blaming the company for not securing their machines and posting signs.
And the finale… a man turned gay after being rear-ended. No really, this guy got into a rear-end collision. Several years later, the man left his wife and started to frequent gay bars. Claiming the rear-end collision changed his personality (obviously more than that), this newly established gay man was awarded $200,000. His wife… she was awarded $25,000.

We should have put this one in the dumb lawsuit category, but those of you with a twisted sense of humor may consider this a funny lawsuit.
The Alienation of Affection Law allows husbands and wives to sue each other for loss of love. Now men and woman define love differently. Does this law cover the demands of what a man would consider love? Could he sue his wife if she does not give him some loving…. anyway, moving along.
Arthur Friedman of Cook County sued German Blinov for stealing his wife’s love. He found this rare law and used it to win a $4,000 settlement.

A man has been wearing a speedo to the beach for years and finally got a ticket. He was cited for trespassing and was advised not to return. Thank God! Lets face it… they should have thrown the book at this guy and locked him up for breaking “man law”.
Unfortunately, Mr. Hezzelwood (thong boy) believed he was being treated unfairly and now plans on suing his local Sheriff’s Office for violating his civil rights.
