Ha - good one  =D

I was wondering if somebody would comment on it, I'm surprised there hasn't been a downpour.

I know we don't like Obama, but I prefer to pick on him for his policies, not stuff that any president logically has to do.

Did you expect an outpouring of support, or a flood of criticism?

Or just say "buck it" and go home.

I hate to pour cold water on this thread, but the puns are getting bad.

And that we should cool it
That is all. *expletive deleted*ck you all, eat *expletive deleted*it, and die in a fire. I have considered writing here a long parting section dedicated to each poster, but I have decided, at length, against it. *expletive deleted*ck you all and Hail Satan.

our POTUS is a .... OK, stupid rules about being polite prevent me from saying what I think he is.

I think the ice bucket challenge is cute and smart on the part of those who started it. A charity is earning mucho buckos off people who would otherwise spend their money on some other insane fad. I'm betting ALS research is getting a lot of money from people who don't even know what it is, simply because of the "cool" factor of dumping a bucket of ice water on their heads.
And that's fine by me. We live in a society chock full or shallow, idiotic people who get gulled all the time. Why shouldn't charitable institutions take advantage of this fact?

of all the stupid crap that goes around social media, at least this one has some sort of tangible benefit to society.
