10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
I feel like I explained better in this comment. The average person simply doesn't pay attention to nutrition labels, because 99.99999999% of the time, it's useless information.
Good for you. You're a special little star spangled boy, and the world should be designed around people like you. And when you get listeria from milk that you should have verified didn't have listeria in it, you have no right to sue the people who sold you the milk. That was sarcasm. I know some people have trouble with that.
Because I'm watching my drink to make sure it doesn't overfill. This is totally absurd, nobody fills up a drink from one of these dispensers without watching the cup. You don't fill up your drink without watching the cup. I know you don't, because you're a relatively normal human being who doesn't want to spill lemonade all over the place. The fact that you brought this idea up shows that you aren't interested in having a real conversation, you're only interested in voicing the opinion you've already formed, even if it means talking absurdities to justify it.
But again, that's their problem, not mine for being educated.
The world should be designed about people who read, yes. Glad we cleared that up for you.
Your drink does not immediately overflow, and even if you have a small cup, surely you turn to face the dispenser and approach it before you fill your drink. If your drink is immediately being filled as soon as you see the dispenser, you may be a wizard.
But to justify reasons to not be educated, especially something as reading a sign is both hilarious and horrifying to know, because I always knew they were around, I've just never met one until now.
