Funny thing is... amongst all this negative information about him, my opinion of him took a *real* dive where It said he's a real estate agent. :-P

That got the point for sure, and yeah it was pretty funny too if you don't mind the language! I think some of these people on the news need to watch that.

Yet another case of spontaneous acceleration. This time with food. Where will it all end?

P.S. Maybe you can sue Wing Stop.

I tried posting that video on a few other foums but the mods immediately deleted it, I'm guessing they want to protect our delicate ears from those horrible cuss words, i didnt find it anymore offensive than an episode of Gordon Ramsey's Hells Kitchen.

That might have more to do with the fact it has been posted many times already. No need for multiple posts and links to the same video.

+1 . Most are shady from our home buying experiences . Was thinking he was in financial trouble due to slow sales and plummeting resale value in CALIFORNIA . Desperation is nation wide .

Now I'm hearing on the radio that lawyers in California are jumping on this and plan to Sue Toyota for "endangering the public".

Have they no sense at all?? It's 100% obvious that it's a hoax!

The news is still treating this incident as being real and attributing it to Toyota's so called problem.

Blood is shooting out of my eyes knowing the truth while the general public is being led to believe that every Toyota is a danger to society.

Seems like everyone is trying to make money off Toyota, even the Government. There are just too many hungry lawyers in this country.
