Lou Gehrig was a lefty.
A penurious man from Nantucket
Said "I won’t get involved with Ice Bucket.
"They think it is funny
"For me to give money,
“Then give me a dousing? Well… forget that.”
Boy, Chief, not to be too harsh but you might want to stick to racial-genetic linkages.
But Lhougerig was a switch hitting amblyopiist.
And loved buckets. Not ice buckets, but still.

This ALS ice bucket thing is
making my Facebooking joyless;
I have to scroll quickly
Or the sight makes me sickly
Like most xenolinguisticophiles is…

No one actually knows who you are, OP. We’re making fun of you for starting a dumb thread. Although now we’ll probably also make fun of you for playing the persecution card completely out of context.
Bullshit. Everyone knows right-wingers hate foreign languages.
I thought it was French for werewolf.
Nothing about attractive celebrities dowsing themselves with cold water and posting the videos for us to see could ever be a bad thing.
Now, granted, I just caught a description of this on NPR so maybe I misheard - people douse themselves with ice-cold water in order to AVOID donating to the ALS foundation?
The idea is that the videos increase visibility and awareness. And its been working.
Although, many people are donating in addition to dousing.
You dowse for ice water first. Once you find some, then you can douse.
Oh, and Terr has been sleeping in the guest room for so long, he (she?) has redecorated it and now it’s home.
There once was a race from Nantucket
With members as dumb as a bucket
They took the IQ
They screwed that up, too
So in school they all just said fuck-it!
Officially the dousing is if you want to avoid a $100 donation. You are still supposed to donate but the dousing allows a smaller donation.
Da rools!
Well, not the official rules (if such a thing exists) but I think it is a good way to play.
I guess I’m outing myself as a fellow piece of shit, but I find the idea sort of played out too. Recognizing that it’s all good fun for a good cause and whatnot.
I tend to be quickly annoyed by viral videos in general, though. And I’m, you know, a piece of shit.
But you DO still like the Macarena, right???
As such a proud “right winger” can we assume:
-
You don’t support the ice bucket challenge.
-
You do support waterboarding of terrorist detainees?
Cause that’s comedy gold, right there!
Yeah, but he doesn’t support viral videos of terrorists being waterboarded!
