A good point well made about the ALSA ice-bucket challenge
As comments say, when Steve-O and Charlie Sheen are the voices of reason, something's gone wrong.

It was only via B3ta yesterday that I even knew it had anything to do with a chraity.
And I still have no idea what ALS stands for.

I went to their website
...took me quite a while to find out what it is even then as they're far more concerned with RAISING AWARENESS and chucking ice over people.

ALS?
If only there was something that'd enable you to get near-instantaneous access to the sum of human knowledge and endeavour without having to leave your chair.

Just saying that an awareness campaign should at least say what it's trying to make you aware of.
And no. I still haven't looked it up.

He's right, and how nice of him
to donate 0.0004% of his money. It makes Charlie Sheen's 0.00008% pale into insignificance.

I'm sure ALS will be more than happy to accept your 76p mate :D

A bag of ice costs £1
I'll invoice them the remaining 24p.

this is bullshit.
they should be grateful for anything at all. There are a whole bunch of equally worthy charities. the only reason they are getting anything at all is because people like watching videos of their friends pouring a bucket of ice over their heads, not because they give a shit about the charity. If they had to rely on the attraction of their charity alone, they'd get three fifths of fuck-all.
go ahead, post some the details of some cerebral palsy or motor neuron disease charity here or on facebook and see how much people care
