New battle in the war on culture in New Orleans begins

Yep, this mouth wimp has filed a lawsuit against New Orleans restaurants because their food is too spicy for his mouth. I hate people like this. Had a guy like this in the Navy. One weekend, a very good cook decided to embellish the official Navy recipe for chili. It was great. Those stuck on the ship went back for seconds and thirds. ONE guy filed an official complaint that it was too spicy. The cook was reprimanded. Next time he fixed chili, it had no flavor at all. He had to follow the official recipe thanks to the jerk. For those of us from Louisiana, Miami, Texas, etc, it wasn't too hot. We still needed to add a little more hot sauce but it tasted good. To wimp mouth, it burned his delicate mouth. Now we have this guy wasting tax money on a lawsuit over spicy food no one forced him to eat. I wonder if it's the same guy?

Had you read the article all the way to the end you'd have seen the blue link "Is this real or satire?"

And then you wouldn't have been outraged.

Yep, I saw it a few minutes before you posted. I actually heard the story on several local radio stations and that's why I fell for it. Oh well. Live and learn.

It was well done though. And in this day and age, believable.
