I think it's great. ALSA has raised a shitload of money, and it's funny to watch people you like dump buckets of ice water down on their heads.
I come and go as I please, just like we all do. Sometimes dealing with the idiots isn't worth it, and I like to spend more time with people in real life. But then I always feel inclined to come back and point and laugh. Because, you know, as 'drama' goes, FUCK THOSE GUYS DOING GREAT THINGS FOR CHARITY is pretty high up on the dipshit meter. Thanks, you never disappoint.
Actually, I'd say this thread is the proverbial equivalent of someone dumping a bucket of ice on their head.
Also, Pamela Anderson is apparently opposed to it. So I'm in good company. A paedophile Catholic priest a blowjob slut queen!
Yeah you're in great company. Let's listen to morons like Pam Anderson and throw away advances in scientific research just to save mice.
They did it to the football coaches tonight at the community pep rally. Several others as well. I didn't mind as I've frequently had ice water dumped on me during football seasons past.
A high school classmate of mine who's the head coach/athletic director at a 6A school had someone fill up the front bucket of a backhoe with ice water and dump it on him and his coaching staff.
Here's the compilation of fails. If dumping a bucket of water is so fraught with peril, I think I can see now how so many people are killed or injured by vending machines and toilet seats and tea cosies.
Goddamn tea cosies. They look edible, but buddy they sure ain't! Anyway, IMO, the only legit complaining belongs to the people of LA and the surrounding counties in California, who are suffering the worst drought they've seen in many years. Water is at a damned high premium right now, so it would be more wasteful doing it there. I mean, it really seems bad out there right now.
I'm not liking these comparisons to Headvalve... I mean, Uncle Albert. If just one of you bastards posts an offensive cartoon or makes fun of my Muslim fiancee abandoning me, that's it. I'm outta here.
The ice bucket part is kind of weird but it's raising money for a good cause so I'm not going to piss on it. I don't see why WAB cares what people are doing with their own time and money. What business is it of his?
Okay, you weren't joking. http://www.wjla.com/articles/2014/0...after-drowning-in-diving-accident-106334.html I'm starting to think there is, in fact, a God. And the Almighty has one hell of a wicked sense of humour.
I read about that when it happened, but didn't connect the dots. At the time, it was presented as your typical dumbass rich kid gets drunk and decides to dive from the roof top bar in to the harbor type stories. We get that a lot around here, so I barely noticed anything else about it.
The ice cold water suddenly dumped on your head is supposed to simulate what people who have ALS experience every day, with muscles shaking uncontrollably, and the body in a heightened state of distress.
