I lol'd hard at this line:

They also thought it was important to put this line in the lawsuit: "In fact, Plaintiffs do not date younger men at all."

If it doesn't get thrown out of court based on that line alone, then something is seriously wrong with the American legal system.

Sure the channel has become a horrible abomination in sorts.

But this is a frivolous lawsuit in my opinion, they'll probably settle for less than a million.

Cougar is a badge of honor. Especially since it's only usually given to the attractive ones.

As much as I may dislike G4...I would never wish a stupid lawsuit like this on them any day of the week. This is just like those lawsuits where someone sues Starbucks because they spilled their own coffee on themselves and they got burnt. "Well it was too hot so it's Starbuck's fault!" ...purely ridiculous.

You mean the McDonalds suit, which was actually legitimate?

Kevin jut got waayyyy cooler in my mind. that was funny as shit. 

and why are those women mad? they're obviously out partying because they want male attention, and when they get it they want a million fuckin dollars, sounds like some gold diggers to me. 


seriously, i cant believe they are claiming they ont date younger men at all, they we just sitting at a table having drinks with men half their age.

I didn't mean anything specific (just making an example), but there were more than just that one case...it's like suing McDonalds because you're overweight.

The coffee machine was heating it to an extent that it melted the cup's glue and broke apart over her thighs. Ouch.


Anyway: on topic. No woman should be suing for being forced to come to terms with their nature. Men do it all the time.

Yeah, that was hilarious....

But I kind of at this point wanted something to happen to them. Whatever happened to "TV for Gamers." Besides Attack of the Show and X-Play (which is hardly funny now), there's no identity left for the channel. It's just crap to me now.

Being angry about this I can understand, but a $1,000,000 lawsuit? I've heard of some ridiculous lawsuits before but this is still hillarious. Good find.

Were the cougars (or MILFies) all high school teachers?  Because then it just makes so much sense.

Unless they can prove damages they don't have a case anyway.

There's ramifications for airing them without their permission (if that's the case), and I suppose for misrepresenting them, but not $1 million worth, that's usually for loss of limbs or something like that.

I want a cougar!
