Why did I know this would happen? This is ridiculous. It's a freaking sub sandwich. What if they measured 1 foot 1 inch...would they sue then? This makes me hate people.  

I got the story at philly.com, but I've summed it up below.

Two Subway customers have sued the chain because their "footlong" sandwiches came up a little short.

The lawsuit by two New Jersey men comes after last week's customer compaints regarding sandwiches which measured about a half-inch short.

Subway explained that the baking process at individual stores led to inconsistencies, and had not seen the lawsuit.

A lawyer says the chain is shorting customers about 45 cents a sandwich.
