I wonder if Dave and or Ed will oblige.
I've been nominated a few times over the weekend but I'm never a fan of following the crowd.
On the other hand being nominated by someone that actually has it is pretty hard to turn down...
John Mayer accepted his challenge and re-nominated Ed and Dave. This could get interesting.
Just cut the check and be done...

I'm a terrible person even thinking this but what if you didn't know that there was a technology whereby moving your eyes can select letters which your carer then see and narrate?
Then you are in a situation watching someone looking increasingly panicked as some strange 'Misery' type character narrates how they are going to get ice put on their head.
As I understand it the original thing was get water poured on your head OR make a donation.Originally Posted by DONNIEP
So my FB is now full of dozens of people and their kids all torturing themselves rather than give money to charity?
Some people are now challenging others to do the water AND give a donation.
I guess after all of this some more people will know what ALS is and some will give money but to me it feels a bit like big charity gigs or people that get themselves sponsored to go and do something they really wanted to do.
Can you imagine Dave and Ed doing "It's Showtime!":

You ignore the French. Do it three times.

That's fucking class.
Whichever the case may be, it's working. I can only imagine this is just the start of this sort of thing.

Every time I see some hollyweird wanna be French themselves this will get better and better .
Very very cool
fuck your fucking framing
I sure hope not. I think Al should dump a bucket on both of them from a 2nd floor window at Fiddy one Fiddy.

I don't get this. Are we supposed to feel bad we have more water to waste than they do in Africa now?
Water should not be wasted ANYWHERE. I love that ALS is getting tons of money, but I DESPISE this wasteful campaign.
I conserve water as much as possible...
That looks like he was making a bucket list not a commentary on the ice bucket challenge.
Something. I posted a video then decided to delete it. Since I had to post something I did.

Wasting water in areas with water to spare isn't really wasting water. It might be wasting the money it took to filter and deliver the water to the place they filled the buckets but that's about it. I suppose you only take Navy showers and have a drought friendly yard too. If they were wasting food or oil I could see your point but water?

I'm proud of my two youngest... they donated their own money and did the ice dump. They both challenged their friends to do both.
"If you want to be a monk... you gotta cook a lot of rice...”
I'd be up shit creek if someone challenged me. A bucket of ice cold water over my head would probably make me have a heart attack and I can't spare $100 right now. I got a $350 ticket I gotta pay because I forgot to put the handicapped placard on my rear view mirror a couple days ago after I parked in a handicapped space.
No such thing as "water to spare". Without water...there is no food. Without water...you don't get oil out of the ground.
"1.5 million children under the age of five die each year from diarrhea, caused primarily by dirty water and poor sanitation. That is more than 4,100 deaths per day. Given an average airliner capacity of 250, this is equivalent to 16 airliners full of children under the age of five, crashing each day"
Jason's dad invented that according to Wiki. I know they're not always right but they're not always wrong either.
I think they brought that up in the movie.
Remember the old Sam Kinison bit about why there's no food in the desert?
And then in the States, we've got housing booms in areas that are already short on water...and those pricks propose taking water from the Great Lakes. Uh, fuck off!
AND then there's these asshole celebs who are shaming people about wasting water in the challenge, and I bet most of them have a big ol' pool in their backyard. Fuck them too!
Writing In All Proper Case Takes Extra Time, Is Confusing To Read, And Is Completely Pointless.
People are stupid, celebrity people more so.
It takes 30 gallons of water to create a pound of cheese, 150 gallons of water to create a pound of beef - a bucket isn't going to make any difference to anything.

They need to build desalination plants along the coast here and quit diverting rivers from their natural courses. The should have built some here instead of building the California and the L A aqueducts.
Maybe they'd quit whining if they limited it to one gallon of ice water per bucket.
I hate cheese.
Angel disagrees with you. A bucket of water will make a difference.
That's the exact thing I thought of when I saw the meme. Sam screaming, "Go where the food is!!"
If 500 people save a bucket of water...that's 500 gallons...
When I had money, I had a few wells built...
More anti-American propaganda, really Angel? Leave it to us Americans to sacrifice our fresh water for a good cause (in a time of drought in the west no less).
We all are...
The word of God calls us "filthy rags."
You sound like Obomba...
To the right person, it will...
No matter how little water I use, I still get the same bill, around $45 a quarter. Conservation isn't gonna save me any money. Most of the time I flush the can downstairs with dehumidifier water, I'm not thirsty enough to try to purify it and drink it.
It's still good to conserve...
This just happened to be the meme I saw...cld just as easily say "Canada" or "First World"...
I fully support the cause...I'm just not fond of the method. We take water for granted, and we shouldn't...it's the giver of life...
Oh, I know. I don't wash all five vehicles, maybe two, and if I do it's in the yard. The village is picky about what goes down the street drains anyways. I even considered a rainwater storage and pump system for the toilets. I have the supply shut off to the one in the basement and dump the dehumidifier into the tank. Stupid to just dump it down the drain and not get any use out of it.
A group here in the village is promoting the use of rainwater collection barrels, for those who water gardens etc. We're bordered by Lake Erie and a river so proximity to the water is a selling point.
I don't use a whole lot. Daily showers, two loads of laundry a week, and maybe one in the dishwasher. I got a neighbor's bill by mistake once and they were in for $500, but the wife was babysitting and they had a teenage daughter. Just me here.
No doubt we have idiots doing the ice bucket thinking they were donating to a good cause. It took awhile for most to realize it's money or the ice bucket.
