Lately I’ve been saying that the stupidest thing I’ve ever heared is the case of a woman who bought a used car that didn’t come with an airbag and then sued because it didn’t come with an airbag.
But an item, originally from The Wall Street Joural has become a serious contender for stupidest-thing-I’ve-ever heared:
Glad to see some folks have got their priorities straight.
Wait one second.
You mean to tell me they protected unborn FLIES?

The only reason they weren’t allowed to mistreat the maggots was because, after filming was completed, the maggots were ground down into meat for McDonald’s hamburgers… and it just wouldn’t do to have an unhappy maggot go into a Happy Meal!
Hey!! How dare you suggest that McDonalds uses maggots for their meat! That’s the grossest thing I’ve ever heard! You should be ashamed of yourself.
Besides, EVERYONE knows it’s made of rats! 
Bullshit. It’s made of WORMS. Get it straight, people.
Jesus.
On a more serious note - I think you guys are mistaking some union power games with a real isssue.
Kangaroo meat!
According to the imdb, at least, maggots have gotten the same treatment on the set of The Shawshank Redemption.
