User blog:ElectricMayhem/Ice Bucket Challenge Rant

So I'm sure most of you are familiar with the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. But it's stupid. Really dumb. And bad. And you should feel bad or something. Look, my point is, ALS is a disease. It kills people.

And the Ice Bucket Challenge is pretty much just a thing people do for fun. It doesn't even have "ALS" in the name most of the time. But, my point is, the way it works (or how I understand it) is that someone challenges you to dump cold water on your head, and if you don't in a certain amount of time, you have to donate money.

The whole thing is not donating money.

Do I understand this wrong? The whole point about is getting out of donating money to an important cause.

People are horrible.

Anyway, this whole fad has died down anyway, which is probably good.

And if the whole point is to "raise awareness", being aware of something won't make it GO AWAY. Donating money actually HELPS.
