I actually read your quote before reading the article and I assumed that he had most likely accepted a bet to let a scorpion sting his testicles. This is VEGAS, a world renowed place for gambling, so my assumption doesn't sound all that crazy, that people will do crazy shit for gambling money, especially AFTER they already lost their money and want a chance to win it back. What ACTUALLY happened, he has a VERY good case for using. A scorpion should never have been there in the first place.Quote:

Bro kinda fucked his own lawsuit by his own report.
https://www.8newsnow.com/wp-content/...resize=876,492
His report claimed he was in "alot of pain" (misspelling his, not mine).
However, right under that, he indicated his pain was a "4" on a scale from 1-10. That's not very bad! I'd expect a scorpion sting in the testicles to be much worse!
The lawsuit, if one comes to exist, will not be successful. Among other things, he cannot prove that the scorpion was in the room due to the Venetian's negligence, or that he didn't bring in the scorpion himself (either intentionally or unintentionally).
For example, the scorpion could have hopped onto his suitcase at home or in the parking garage, and then got brought into the room, and crawled onto him at night.
He also could have intentionally brought in the scorpion, feigned the injury, and killed it and said it was already in the room.
There's also the matter of the duty of care the hotel has regarding bugs in the room. Perhaps they could be held liable for an infestation they ignored, but single bugs are hard to prevent, and scorpions are not easily thwarted by usage of pesticides.
These guys would fit in better in an '80s Vegas mafia movie than this story:

will be, as you allude, whether the Venetian was the actual cause of the scorpion. If you can get a jury to buy that, then legal cause (foreseeability, that he would be bitten), is a snap.

I'd think that he went and backed up the matter with some kind of medical treatment or examination? to show that he was in fact stung recently.
If this ends up being some kind of severed finger in the chili fraud, it will come out. Absent that, his claim is worth something.

Just because some scorpion hitches a ride in on you or your belongings after a day hiking or whatever then stings your balls shouldn't be grounds for anything. More likely though is this is a setup. The Venetian insurance will settle for an amount less than the cost and risk of litigation and people can pay a few bucks more for a room than they would otherwise have to if this nonsense was not allowed to exist.
Your comparisons are irrelevant. Yes, nonsense lawsuits should not be allowed.
You guys have never tried scorping? It's all the rage with Gen-Z.
I didn't even THINK of the possibility that HE could be at fault for the Scorpion biting him in his testicles until I read some of the comments stating he could have inadvertently brought the Scorpion with him. Or have set this up on purpose for lawsuit money. When Maxpen said,"Some people will do anything for money, I assumed it was a BET that the guy made because he ran out of gambling money and was desperate for a chance to win it back. But as soon as I read that he was stung in his hotel room, I went straight to,"He needs to sue that hotel!" Without even thinking HE could be at fault.
The whole case is full of shit. It's an obvious set-up and everybody involved either knows it or soon will.
As someone who has been stung by scorpions multiple times both inside the house and out, aware people know that the holiday season--which is when this fraudster claimed it occurred--is a VERY inactive time of year for scorpions to even move, let alone find their way into homes, clothing, beds, laundry baskets etc.
I didnt look, but is this guy from California?
It didn't happen the way he claimed. And if a retard like Tasha believes it....nuff said.
This is why people like you shouldn't be allowed to vote....RIPQuote:

And, 782 posts was sort of a middle-of-road numeral, with 782 --> 287, which has something to do with the name, Francis Bacon, in his own cipher. The Kaye ciphers? (For the uninitiated, the time of the song where I started over, in post #783, "Let it snow," is 1:57 ---> 157, which similarly pairs off with the 287.)
Incidentally, the time of this post is 1:47, which sort of goes with 287 = 7*41 ---> 741, part of the suicide text #741741 .
And, 805 = 35*23 might go with 782 = 34*23.

Imagine how this nutjob lives....when he's not butt-licking anxious about writing his unreadable and poorly structured comma-saturated postings on this fabulous forum.
The nature of reality, or philosophy (as an absolute), is that reality has no, and, but, every, nature. It doesn't take sides. Which, itself off to the side in a true dimensional equation (aside from a "Pi theory", or other, approach to string together the possible physical units of an equation/result) then instills thus meaning into the proper bits of the dimensional equation.Quote:

Turns out that the absolute gets the true notion of all as everything. Instead of all as all-the-way. Putting every thing together, to include whatever is all-the-way, at the end of the "number line", creates an empty, or circular, definition of all, and, so, either everything, or, whatever all-the-way, must be a fuzzy entity. The fuzzy point or dimension-0 by Relativity, and by the Quantum, Theories, make more, nay, total, sense than a fuzzy all as everything. A matter of a thus dimensional equation to fiddle things together with the types of math, and, ultimately, the numerals.Quote:

But what's really neat is where "black goes to perfectly black", as a limit of a sequence of terms, in the dimensional equation above, converging at a point of divergence, without changing itself whatever "black" then becomes. And, even neater, the "point" conceptually between the thus sequence, and, its limit - the TOE, itself. Ha.Quote:

I bet that by the time our universe occupies space, then time becomes space (as matter becomes motion), and, versa, so, call them either, or both. Where things are truly free, they become one with each other. But, the unfree space, and time, and, matter, and motion, determines things, gives our universe its meaning.Quote:

Some of us mentioned that it’s odd that a little scorpion in a big hotel room would find its way onto the bed, under the comforter, under the sheets, through the underwear & then under the schlong to reach the nuts.
But if Seedvalue’s equipment is as big as he says, maybe the only thing in the room that was possible for the scorpion to sting was his nuts.
I highly doubt that Seedvalue is the one who had a Scorpion sting him in his testicles.Quote:

The guy that got stung in the nuts by a scorpion at the Venetian is now suing.
Pinching your balls, that picture looks a lot like you. Can’t be though. You just pinch the nuts not sting.
https://www.8newsnow.com/news/local-...esort-lawsuit/
It was one of my cousins. Rumor has it he was looking for the butthole, but the man was wearing his underwear backwards.
That picture looks INCREDIBLY photoshopped. :confused: :/
Just imagine if Dean Martin was still alive today.
In honor of this incident he would probably change the song title & lyrics of Ain’t that a kick in the head? To Ain’t that a sting in the nuts?
The linked article has other pictures, I don’t think the picture is photoshopped but the whole story sounds suspicious.Quote:

Also underwear almost always has elastic so it wouldn’t have been able to climb inside his underwear to get to his nuts, it would have had to sting his nuts through his underwear which scorpions are capable of stinging through clothes.
He is also suing for loss of consortium because the nut sting has made it difficult to service his wife.
I suspect the whole thing is bullshit, but you never know. Truth can be stranger than fiction.
I went to a Scorpions concert in a park when I lived in Munich. I was a fan before seeing them live, and I'm an even bigger fan today. Unlike most rock bands, their music has some heart. A co-worker who knew them took me to the Hofbrauhaus afterwards where I met them as we guzzled a few dunkles and had German food galore (which I don't like at all).
V you would have enjoyed the park. Lots of young women sun bathing with their tops off.
What impedes scorpions climbing is their weight. The big ones tend to fall before they can get very high but the little ones climb as well as spiders. That's why many people put their bed posts inside smooth cups and put some bug poison in the cups. Even if something managed to climb up the cup it would fall into the liquid and die before climbing up the bed post. The scorpion in the picture is very tiny when you compare it to the size of the black thread stitching on the underwear. It could easily have climbed into the bed on its own.Quote:

I noticed it’s eyes were also very small so maybe it couldn’t tell the difference?
Or maybe the guy was sleeping on his back & therefore the butthole was completely inaccessible so it went for I guess what it perceived as the next best thing, the nuts?
Seems like the butthole would be the much more preferable place to get stung, because even though it might swell up from the sting there are a variety of foods that could be eaten to open it back up.
The nuts though is pretty rough for a whole host of reasons.
