Don't forget cell phone manufactures; their products make us walk off cliffs, into walls, crash motorcycles while taking selfies, etc. I don't know how many times that I wanted to sue BIC for all the stupid stuff that I have written over the years. Dell computers! Oh, my!  If it wasn't for them I would not be writing this, but I do have to attribute a lot of this to Microsoft for providing the program to do so. And, I need to sue Al Gore for inventing the internet, which has made all things possible. AND, then there is...
