Don’t Let Your Gobbler Day Guests Sue You Or Strip In Jail

“Hi! Welcome! We’re so glad you came over for Thanksgiving Day. Wine’s on in the fridge, we have snacks on the table and some chili for watching the game, dinner will be at 4:30. Oh, could you sign this form, please?”

“Guest acknowledges and understands that no warranty, either expressed or implied, is made by Host as to the nutritional content of the meal. This document is offered in order to duly warn Guest 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.”

So begins the Thanksgiving Guest Liability and Indemnification Agreement helpfully offered by the Center for Consumer Freedom.

The waiver, a tongue-in-cheek counterpoint to the obesity-related lawsuits popping up across the nation, is the latest salvo from the center, which represents restaurants and food companies and takes stands on issues it deems to be ones of consumer choice. The organization routinely pits itself against “a growing cabal of activists” intent on meddling in American lives with food labels and smoking bans and the like. This time, the target appears to be the litigation-minded.

And watch out how much your guests drink, otherwise you could be letting a bright soul like this loose

A 41-year-old Ocala woman who was taken to the Marion County Jail on suspicion of driving under the influence, stripped naked at the jail when asked to take off her shoes, according to sheriff’s deputies.

Yup, she looks like the person who always starts dancing on the tables at company affairs, eh?
