My issue is that when I pointed out not 6 months ago that it was found that none of this money is actually used for research, that the responses I get are about me hating women and I'm ruining the fun.

So here's my official response.

STEVE LUVS BITCHES.


Also if these women are using cancer to have fun then how am I the asshole?

Also, penis.

What exactly does a selfie have to do with breast cancer research?

Why not just give the money and shut up about it? :wacko:

Also you being accused of being a Misogynist is a fantastic way to not address your original point because it just shuts down debate.

Anyway though, like you I would just not care too much about it, if people want to take selfies and say something about breast cancer research then go ahead. :wacko: It's sort of like people raising money to go do charity work in other countries when they could just give the same amount of money to adequately qualified people in those other countries to give them more stuff to actually help them rather than go on a holiday and claim it's for charity work. That's my daily dose of cynicism out now. :P

I agree,Tan.

I would also like to bitch about the way that donating for cancer research has become the get out of guilt free card. Go to Taco Bell? Donate to cancer. Go to walmart? Donate to cancer. Go anywhere? Donate to goddamn cancer. Not only does the money not go to research like he said, but I don't know why it's even a practice anymore. Throwing money at problems doesn't (usually) make them go away. We've been throwing money at cancer for like 10 fucking years now. It's goddamn ridiculous.

As a follow up: Fucking white people.

Afternoon EP.

Oh, did some googling and found this, so it's not all bad, a lot of money was actually raised so I can't be completely cynical now, at least it actually had a benefit.

Someone call? Oh, they mistook Tass for me? Ok then *heads back out* :wacko:

*turns the Tan signal off :wacko:
