I PLAN TO SUE WHOEVER PUT THAT DAMN SPIDER SOLITAIRE GAME ON MY COMPUTER
Two Seattle residents are suing the author of best-seller "A Million Little Pieces" for the value of the time they wasted reading the book. (Via Dr. Frank) The book's publisher issued a statement promising to refund the cost of the book to readers (if they bought it directly from the publisher).
I sense a bonanza here. Quick! Who do you plan to sue now for wasting your precious time? Quick, before Sisyphus beats us to the punch with a top 11 list of potential lawsuits.
Word to the wise: you're not allowed to sue us for the time you spent reading this blog. Too obvious. Plus, our anonymity is foolproof.
UPDATE: Oooooooooo Oprah's pissed at the author now too! Maybe he'll end up in jail for real this time.
UPDATE II: Good thing the Frey lawsuit isn't a class action. Alex Tabarrok of Marginal Revolution would fail the class. And that would be a shame, wouldn't it?

I would like to sue Neil Kinnock for the time wasted listening to Joe Biden speeches.
Kevin Costner still owes me $7 for "Dances with Wolves."
Denny Green still needs to be sued for the 98-99' NFC championship game against Atlanta. Not that I'm still bitter about it or anything.
A class action suit against the creators of "The Real World" would also be in order.
Ummm...Blogger?
