I can't even believe that this isn't illegal in some way.

they must not get out much
I'm talking about the part where the dude would not return the finger so that it could be reattached. I would have killed that mofo to get my finger back - what a dick.
No crap. The guy who "found" the finger is keeping it for evidence so he can sue. Cripes, it's not like he ATE it. The guy who lost his finger will probably counter-sue. Eh, just sue everyone.Ridemonkey said:
Ok wait a minute...am I the only one who thinks the fact that the freakin custard store employees and management allowed custard to be served that someone had lost their finger in??? I mean wtf? If I had my finger cut off in a custard mixer...I think I would be like hmmm...lets see...lets NOT serve this custard 1) cuz its freakin disgusting and against health department and osha standards to serve custard with a bloody body part in it...2) I'd like to see if I could get my finger reattached...
The guy was a dick for not returning the finger...but jeebus I'd be so freaked out that they let a bloody finger stay in custard they were serving...

I'd call a few hard-hittin', pipe-totin' buddies of mine to teach that hillbilly boy a lesson...Ridemonkey said:
It's almost like some people deserve to die...well, not really, but karma is a bitch.
I agree. Severed fingers should not be allowed in the custard. They should just stick to severed toes.dh girlie said:
how does the finger always seem to get all the way to the customer?
Yeah, what selfish sob that guy is! I can't imagine what that must be like to be the poor guy who lost his finger, knowing that it could have been reattached, but that it is too late now. All because some jerk found it in his ice cream and decided to keep it as evidence.
I think that the counter suit for the loss of the finger on this one will pay way more than the initial suit against the icecream stand.

some people DO deserve to die. like, all of them.reflux said:
Karma does not exist. it's just something to make people feel good about things they can not control.
good things happen to bad people all the time.
and bad things happen to good people all the time.
both will die eventually.
That guy is a dillhole..
Give him back his friggin finger!
Give him back his friggin finger!
Here is the way it will play out.
The asschap who found the finger will sue and get a settlement.
Then the 9 nine fingered guy will sue him to get his settlement.
Unless the Custard place was not a chain, and there was no money in it.
But then again, how much money could there be in Custard. Yuck.
That finger might have made it taste better.

I'm just still shocked that the fact the guy didn't give his finger back is an issue...I'd be more concerned about the place serving finger filled custard!!! Is no one else shocked about that????
Uh yeah but that is not what this thread is about. This thread is about the poor guy who lost his finger and the dillhole who stole it.dh girlie said:

Right...but still...I yain't tryin to derail anything here...but jeebus kryst! That whole not giving the finger tip back is like the icing on the cake...I'm just floored...f'n gross...
Story goes:
Dude got his finger cut off by the same machine that cut someone else's finger off in the recent past.
Manager takes dude and rushes him to the hospital, doesn't tell other employees about finger in custard. Big mistake by the manager there. Gonna cost the manager her job and the owner of the custard stand his business most likely.
Finger is found by customer in a very disgusting manner.
Customer refuses to give dude back his finger so it can get reattached. Ass-HOLE.
Presumably, there will be 3 lawsuits here:
1. Fingerless dude suing the custard shop owner and custard machine maker, since the machine has a history of digit removal.
2. Fingerless dude suing asshole customer for stealing his severed limb when it could have been saved.
3. Asshole customer suing custard shop owner because he got grossed out.
Now if I'm a judge in this county, this all works out just fine. Asshole customer wins his suit, and takes all the custard shop owner's assets, probably a total of about 31 cents after attorney costs. Fingerless dude gets that 31 cents, and all the assets of the asshole customer, probably totalling another 84 cents after attorney costs. And finally, fingerless dude gets a few million from the company that made the digit removal machine. Damn I should have become a judge.

Don't forget lawsuit #4 by the finger stealers family after he gets head bashed in with bat by fingerless guy.

I dunno...I think the dude who had his finger cut off in the machine is just as much of dick...if it were me...I would be like screw this...my fingers in that machine, that is gross and I want my finger back...he was either negligent on his part, or if like Echo said...the manager chose not to tell anyone, I'd've protested that...even if it meant my job...it's my finger...AND it's gross...then he is a part of an negligent act...I'm sure the machine has a warning sticker on it somewhere saying not to stick your hand in the machine while its running...maybe the guy made a bad choice...
I still agree the dude who wouldn't give it back is a dick, but he ain't the only dick...I smell dicks all over the place in this one...

It has already been determined that the manager took the dude to the hospital and neglected to tell the other employees what happened. Big mistake on the manager's part obviously. But does the dude deserve to lose an appendage because the manager freaked out?dh girlie said:
Uh right. I'm sure you'd be all cool and collected after your finger got cut off.dh girlie said:
It was a high school kid. I'm sure when you were in high school, if something like that happened to you, you would have calmly filled out all the necessary OSHA paperwork before going to the hospital right? And you would have ignored your adult boss's demands that you go to the hospital right away too?dh girlie said:
Well, if I was the shop owner, i would assert the defense of "unclean hands" (pun intended) and ask the court to dismiss the suit. I think he the customer shot himself in his foot by refusing to return it.
Echo said:
Of course I woudln't ignore the adult bosses demands to go to the hospital, cuz I'd probably want to go to the hospital after getting my finger cut off like any other dillhole...but I probably would've called my parents regardless. You don't have to fill out the required paper work before going to the hospital...9 times outta 10 here at my office they come back after going to the dr. to fill out the paper work...but I guess it was the managers fault...I didn't see where they said the manager just left the custard...she shoulda put a sign on the machine and told the other people...thats so gross...so looks like the managers at fault...
Uhhh...I'm not saying that...I'm saying its gross...but after reading more stuff I see it was the managers fault...get H8R panty debuncher out for you and Echo...Ridemonkey said:
