No. The biggest whiner is the one whining about the people whining about the people whining about the challenge.

I just got called out today to do the challenge. I will do it because:

1. I never back down from a challenge. I'm badass that way

2. its just a bucket of cold water. Its not the walk on hot coals challenge

3. I'm going to get my 6 year old to do it with me, because kids are goofy and like that kind of stuff.

4. I'm going to enjoy guilting my friends into doing this.

I don't really see what the big deal is. Maybe I just don't whine as much as others.

Not sure. I'm not a rich man, and my daughter's school took a chunk out of my wallet, so somewhere in the neigborhood of $20-$50.

That's cool. But hey I know of another pretty good program you could put money towards. There's a rehab group for men out in New Orleans east by the seminary that tries to get guys back on their feet and help put them in job placement after they graduate the rehab program. They do car washes every weekend for like 20-30 bucks. Think you could go swing by there this weekend? It's not much money and it's for a good cause. You could even bring your son or daughter out there to see those guys getting their lives back on track.

And if he brings a bucket and maybe some ice he can get them to douse him, video it, and post it on TD!

Kill two birds with one bucket of water so to speak.

That'd be sweet. And I got more causes where that came from. I'm going to start tagging people and posting all these causes they can donate to so that everyone can see them giving to those causes!

Sorry, I only donate to causes if someone calls me out on facebook and there's some catchy gimmick involved.

I would probably just give them the money. No one washes my truck but me. I don't need swirl marks.

Wow, you make snarky remarks on the internet AND you're in a fraternity? Can we be friends? I might look cooler just being associated with you.

This place is full of some sad cynical motherfrickers. We bitch about doucebag Hollywood types constantly(most times they deserve it). I have zero issue using celebrity to raise money to help fight a horrible disease. If I was rich and famous I would do everything I could to raise as much money as possible for cancer research. Some people need to get over themselves.

Will the proceeds of this go straight to the homeless addict carwash charity of my choice?
