That's quite a negative light you cast over it, where I live it's all fun and games. I've been nominated, not done the challenge and not donated yet, without pressure to do so. I imagine if there's real bullying and peer pressure where you live, something's gone seriously wrong somewhere in the chain.
I guess it's not quite pathetic if you have been affected by ALS. The show of support could very make their day or in the very least spur donations to a cause they support.
It seems like these things are going to continue anyway, given the success of the no-make-up-selfie trend and this trend.
- bostik 12y agoI would say the ASL foundation is pretty well stocked right now, having received close to $100M. Not to mention the visibility from the media attention, which might well be worth another $100M, albeit over a longer timespan. If you want to donate to more generic causes, you could pick one of my two favourites: EFF and Doctors Without Borders. Or do even better: donate to causes you think are important. Don't listen to me, or anyone else.
