Disney World sued over 'painful wedgie' caused by Typhoon Lagoon slide
A new lawsuit claims that a trip down a waterslide at Disney World's Typhoon Lagoon left a woman with a 'painful wedgie' that allegedly damaged internal organs.

Asking why you have to do something is smart in every case. I ask why I'm asking to do something all the time. If it's not a valid reason why I should be doing something, I just don't do it. And if somebody won't tell you why you're supposed to be doing something and that's a giant red flag. So somebody asks you why just tell him
Let it play out in court. If she's the only one that got injured, and it's because she intentionally did something wrong, then the court will take that into account.
If people are regularly injured, and she's just the worst case, and it's a common problem, then the court will take that into account too.

The rest of that quote is worth adding
