I do not get this whole Ice Bucket craze, at all. All I know is that the next motherfucker that winds up doing it and dies from a severe case of pneumonia, don't expect me to grieve for your loss. Rather, I'll just give you a big ass laugh for your recklessness. I understand your thirst for charity AND wanting your fifteen second of fame, but if you want to show your support, then by all means...just write a check or donate some money to show your love and concern for something you're so passionate about. I don't throw rocks at my head to support research for autism, and neither should you.
Same damned thing. The only difference is...instead of frostbite, they'll know what it's like to be black in a racist world -- burning sensation to run, run, and run.
A friend showed me one and the dude nearly broke his neck getting out of the shower. He couldn't get the fire out. Lol
I think I saw that one. What a sick and funny, stupid people. Now...we value sensationalism more than the cause.
Everyone I know who's done it has donated $100 and then done the challenge just for fun. I don't see an issue with it. If the ice water gets the word about about this cause and engages buy in...more power to them imo.
Agreed. And at least the weather is warm, which shouldn't cause too many health issues for most people. I just wish all of this fresh water wasn't being wasted. That's my only gripe with this challenge.
agreed! all these people dumping water on them yet i get a letter from the water company saying my outdoor water usage has gone up and we are in a drought. the bright side is my bonston ivy, snow princess lobularia and petunias are flourishing nicely. vitamin b-1 does wonders to stimulate new growth.
I've been challenged and it's the end of winter...grrrrr. I'm never one to back down, so will probably do it today as it's 21 today and yhis super bug I've been wrestling with is at it's end I'll be doing it in my garden as well so the waters not being wasted
:smt038:smt038:smt038 More proof that you rock! I wish more people did that. Every video I've seen, people have been standing on pavement. ARGH. Stay warm!
It's all in the locale I guess...I've seen everyone on the steps of their pools using pool water with a bag of ice dumped in it lol. Most are trying to be mindful of the drought issue! If they dumped on pavement I'd have to call them on it
I did something similar! Since my backyard is all rock (soon to be patio stones...) I decided to shower with my bucket the night before. Then as I showered, the bucket filled with water that would've been going down the drain anyways.
Not dumping a fucking ice bucket on my head for Lou Gehrig's disease. Only 5,600 are diagnosed with it every year and it's something that blacks almost never contract.
i agree....but because water is getting scarce, i think doing a happy dance challenge would have been fun.
he couldn't have planned the arrest any better, then to get caught with an ak days before your album drops! he didn't even bail out... the other spectrum, divorce rumors and elevator fight made sales of the concert rise. even the sister had a rise in album sales. some artists can play the media really well to turn a profit.
