Yes, you should know that coffee is actually hot and may burn you. Likewise, McDonalds should know how hot is too hot and not serve its coffee at dangerous temperatures.

In case you're unaware of the context, in short:

McDonald's launched a smear campaign against the lady who spilled hot coffee on her lap. The elderly lady was in the passenger seat of a parked car at the time, and the coffee was so hot that it fused her labia and she needed multiple skin grafts to recover. She asked McDonalds to check their coffee equipment (surely it was malfunctioning if coffee was that hot) and asked them to pay her medical bills, but they refused. During the trial, it was discovered that McDonalds had received hundreds of complaints about the temperature of their coffee and done nothing. The jury awarded her more than she was asking, which amounted to something like the profit from one day's coffee sales.
