Ice Bucket Challenge: FIMFiction Edition! · 6:34pm Aug 22nd, 2014

Jumping on a bandwagon? Maybe, but it's a bandwagon going to a damn good cause.


Yeah, I paid it anyway. Like I said, it's a good cause.

Obs? Geeves? Dusky? Your move...

Jake you brilliant motherfucker

I don't get the ice bucket challenge. People seem to do it to prove how brave they are. Aren't the videos proving how cheap they are though? I dunno, I don't follow social media much, so my understanding of the challenge is if your tagged you can either donate to help sick children or pour ice water over your head. And it devolved into "Haha, lets do the ice bucket challenge to show what a bad ass I am for surviving cold water!"

Still good of you to donate though!

Brilliant.

Nice! Good work there Jake The Army Guy!

Now lets see what the others do. :twilightsheepish:

While it may seem like people are just dumping ice water over their head, this challenge is doing a great deal of good. Everyone I know now knows what ALS is and why its important to help those who have it.
In addition to that, the awareness raised by the challenge has allowed the ALSA charity to bring in ~42 million dollars since it started. This is opposed to 2 million in the same time last year.
A goodly number of people both do the challenge and donate as well, as my family has done.
We need more awareness though. The NIH had it's budget chopped by about 6 BILLION dollars over the last 10 years. This is the organization that funds much of the research on diseases.
So the challenge is great, but the best thing we can do is write to our congressman and tell them we want funding moved back into the ALS, or whatever charity you may support, coffers.

See I already did this once my friend challenged me...though it was either pay up or eat her home made cooking...:raritydespair:

Needless to say I paid the ten bucks and did it, it was fun :twilightsmile:

Ice buckets are nothing, I do the polar bear challenge every year... this past year we had to slam through the ice with a sharpened log... good fun.

Where the fuck I your glow belt. You could have drowned

And here I thought you might challenge me lol. I am sure it will get to me eventually. The Ice Bucket challenge has begun... someone should write a story about this.

:twilightangry2: BRING IT ON!!!

You know, my first thought was, "Oh god, he's going to make me work for all the shit I talked about the ice bucket challenge."

And then I realized it was only going to be the popular kids who write cool things. I'll confess, I was relieved for a couple seconds. And then I was disappointed. But seriously, who the fuck is this Ark-shawd guy anyway?

2391894 I think you and me are in the same boat on that issue... Also, I found out who he was mentioning...

Obselescence
Golden Vision
Dusk Quill

You... you seriously brought this to fimfiction? I'm impressed.

Loathe,
Your Antagonist

I already jumped on that bandwagon.

2392757 I'm jumping on as well...

Also, it was meant to be ChaoticLightning (Not Thunder... My bad)

Good luck with that, man.

It began and then promptly ended.

I did it with freezing water for the wet-nominate for Cancer research ^^

2391739 I was kind shaking from nerves too *Phew* dodged the bullet. Oh wait...I've been indirectly challenged...does that count?

Welp, good cause and all that:rainbowlaugh:

Am I the only one who was busily admiring how good Jake looks soaking wet? I'm okay with that. :raritywink:

Sweet

Oh great now it's gonna spread to here as well.

God damnit Jake, you're going to push me to freeze my ass off as well.
