Beer Drinking

According to this story in Yahoo News, a judge has rejected a compo claim for a bloke who injured himself opening a bottle of beer (while trying to impress a chick). The tail end of the article contains this (spelling corrected) gem:

The Telegraph [Ed: a local daily paper] applauded the decision which comes rising claims of negligence and public liability by increasingly litigious Australians.
"How much tuition does an ordinary Australian need in how to open a bottle of beer?" the newspaper said.

Indeed.
