Default Idiot man sues iPod, reveals self as moron

SAN FRANCISCO - A Louisiana man claims in a lawsuit that Apple's iPod music player can cause hearing loss in people who use it.

Apple has sold more than 42 million of the devices since they went on sale in 2001, including 14 million in the fourth quarter last year. The devices can produce sounds of more than 115 decibels, a volume that can damage the hearing of a person exposed to the sound for more than 28 seconds per day, according to the complaint.

The iPod players are "inherently defective in design and are not sufficiently adorned with adequate warnings regarding the likelihood of hearing loss," according to the complaint, filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in San Jose, Calif., on behalf of John Kiel Patterson of Louisiana.
Here's an idea, dumbass - don't turn it up all the way and you won't blow out your idiot eardrums. Go get in line with the moron that sued McDonalds for making him fat.

Yeah, if you want to sue Apple for iPods, do it on the fact that they are overpriced pieces of shit.
