Oh, that's actually a decent cause.
I just thought it was another fad, but wow that's really smart and thoughtful.
Kudos to them.

The trend has raised in excess of $50,000,000 so far. It's honestly an incredible thing.

I suppose this is the difference between a bunch of adults and a mix of children and adults on a forum. Another forum I go to has people completely split on this challenge. Some are crying about how this challenge is just the new thing for celebrities to get attention, others complain about other illnesses not getting the same attention, and of course several people are behind this trend 100 percent, as in my opinion, they should be. While it's okay to have a different opinion, belittling the thing that has done so much good is not the way to go about it. I'm glad that's not happening here.

Like that last line because of how true it rings. People just relax here instead of going crazy like so many do.

Have no problem with it at all considering the money it raised but I do feel the message has been lost and has become more about the trend. I honestly thought this was a fad.
Again, nothing against it, but I'd rather just donate money (which I will on Friday).
