if it makes ppl happy, i dont have a problem with it.

many of the ppl at the cancer rallies probably think posting on bbing message boards is stupid.

we're all just carbon-based miracles with unknown expiration dates, and it's not like any of us it going to write The Marriage of Figaro.

it's not to be rude or anything, I DONT like oversized anything, it's one of the ways of not going back to my old obese ways. I did forget when I did the babies heart motorcycle run a few weeks back all they had was a large tshirt. I tried to shrink it but didn't work. I dunno where that shirt is though
I bet the cost of producing all of those Oversized T-shirts and the subsequent cluttering of the landfill that they will undoubtedely will end up in, totally offsets any benefit the event would have had via money raised at the event.  Thats also not even factoring in the gas wasted for everyone to get to the event, the trash that the humans will produce at the event, the electricity used, as well as the money it costs to put on such an event.

Chances are it would be best to not even have the event in the first place.  That would probably help the penguins/ cancer patients even more.

WOW TA just as I was starting to think you were an OK guy, you prove yourself to be a self righteous scumbag once again. Its about people with cancer and their loved ones raising $$ to help the fight (and those who care). Have you done the research or looked to see how much $$ the Susan G. Komen foundation has raised for breast cancer? Have you looked to see how many women are breast cancer survivors today vs. ten years ago? Women have a 98% survival rate today because of the research that has been done.

I hope it never happens, but if your beloved Jezebel ever gets breast cancer, maybe you'll kick your self for these stupid uneducated posts you make. 1 out of 8 women in the US will get BC at some point in their lifetime. The rates are ridiculously high and if it wasn't for things like race for the cure the $$ for research just wouldn't be there.

Cancer "survivors" are also highly amusing to me.  They want to be lauded like some sort of hero for just breathing (again Look at Me!).  They tour around their city, state or country giving false hope to the terminally ill and selling their story like some street preaching mountebank to endless suckers who will continue to fund such bullshit, all because it makes everyone involved "feel good" or "feel better" about theirselves. Some even thank "god" or a "jesus" totally disregarding/disrespecting all of the medical Science and the tireless work of their physicians who are the only real reason they survived.  



Kind of like the skinny tit TA who is always wanting people to look at him?

I can`t really take credit for that quip.  It came from the great blind man Populist and first Oklahoma Senator, Thomas Pryor Gore- circa 1916.



"If there were another race other than the human race id go join it."- Thomas Pryor Gore- Oklahoma`s first Senator (grandfather to Gore Vidal)

I think this whole "Walk for the Cure" thing is about self-righteous assholes who want to go around bragging that they took part in such an event and will quickly whip out the photos or wear the T-Shirt to prove it.  "Look at me! Look at me!  I am fighting Cancer too!"

Except they're not.

You do research in areas that interest you - cooking, politics, etc.  Why not participate in an event then draw your own conclusions rather than making blanketed assumptions?

Early Detection is the only reason for higher curable rates now vs any time in the past.  Hope this helps.

If you examine Breast Cancer among ethnic populations, ie African Americans, you will see that survival rates have not improved at all in the last 10 years.

Perhaps I am just looking to rile you and the others up with a "touchy" subject.

So what is your take on the 835,000 dollars spent in stimulus money to in order to research and teach African men how to wash their balls?  AIDS and STD`s are diseases too you know.  They are humans too.  How do you pick and choose which humans you deem worthy enough to benefit from research and/or treatment and those who are not?

Or do you just pick and choose diseases that only suit your taste or interest you as to what is worthwhile to spend money on.

Name one verifiable result or breakthrough that can be directly attributed to the Susan G. Komen foundation and the money raised.  Can you?  Also survivability rates are solely determined on when Cancer is detected and nothing else.

My main point is, Why does there have to be an activity such as running, racing etc..associated with donating money?  Why not just forego all that (they would be actually saving more money, better for the environment etc...)and paypal or phone in the money.  Why all the pink hats, running and oversized T-shirts every weekend?

Imagine the money saved and that could be directed further if all that nonsense was cut out.  Next thing you know the Susan Komen foundation is going to product a video game where you fight evil hoardes of mutated cancer cells in a First Person Shooter using a Gamma Ray gun.

Its called $$ raised for research. Weather it comes from Susan G. Komen or some other fund does not matter. Women with stage 3 & 4 breast cancer are living longer than ever in history, why? Because of research. Research costs money and these foundations raise money for research. Your a mental midget that just talks with big words, and tries to act intelligent. Then you post garbage like this. I think the problem with you TA is you have extremely low self esteem. Like I said I hope your Mom, nor your Jezebel ever get BC that way you never have to go down the BC journey. You're a foolish, skinny boy.

A very simple answer for your small mind: It draws a crowd, and gives people something to do. It gives people a cause. It obviously works because SGK has invested over 1.5 billion dollars since the foundation was founded.

Research like 835,000 dollars spent to teach African men how to wash their balls?  ;D

Seriously, given the money spent and raised, not much has been accomplished in reailty when you begin to look at the historical survival rates of Breast Cancer.  Besides, the majority of drugs come from companies whose first motive is profit, not eradication.  It would do them no good to eradicate the disease (not that its even possible unless eliminated from the human genome via DNA which would likely cause a total disruption in the genetic code) as the well would dry up.  Follow the money.

Doesn`t seem to working for the African Americans.  How come do you suppose that they are not "aware" yet despite the deluge of Pink memorbillia every where you turn?  Their survival rates have not really improved in decades and they don`t seem to be reaping any benefits from the Komen foundation as an aggregate.

Perhaps they don`t like the color pink?  ???

Humans are stupid fucking creatures and easily misled.



Especially liberals and dick heads like you. Lets look at this a little closer......you call people dumb and misled for openly GIVING and supporting something they believe in that is actually for a great cause but having the government come steal money from hard working people (not you because people like you would rather have things handed to them) and give it to other causes they think are better than the one I give too? Fuck you're dumb....fuck!

Lets take another $800k and give it to countries so they can learn to ball wash....hell throw in another $500k so they can have their own official ball washer!!

Then start raising money to eradicate the disease! You talk a lot of shit and probably do next to nothing.

PS this isn't about George Carlin its about your small minded comments. George Carlin was a great comic, your just an attention whore ;D Like I said when someone close to you is diagnosed with BC, maybe you will earn an appreciation for these foundations raising money for research. Our women deserve much more than skinny boys making shitty comments like you seem to make. I think the posters above are correct, this is all about TA saying look at me guys. I'm over here. FP and Mike and Laura are the hype on GB, but TA is still here. Over here GB.

You do realize there cannot be a "cure" for cancer.  The "disease" does not work like Small Pox.  So labelling "xxxx for the Cure" or "yyyy for the Cure" is totally misleading and false advertising as there cannot be a cure.  People are willing to buy into it because they THINK they will be getting a cure or will be getting closer to a "cure".

There is no such thing.  If they were more honest and labelled it "Run for the treatment of symptoms" or "Race for Disease Management" (both honest statements and proclimations) then way fewer people would donate.

At least they would not be mislead and they may begin to understand Cancer a bit better biologically.

I have already batted these thoughts back and forth with Jezebelle and she agrees totally with what I say.  I always mess with her and tell her she is going to get Breast Cancer. I really do.
