Donate a can for hunger, for free

[osiris3mc]

Seriously man, get a life, it's Christmas for christ's sake...it's people like you who make me sick. You ever think helping someone else maybe, just maybe, helps you? It's called karma my friend.

Seriously man, why don't you just drop it already. I help people all the time, but we can't just break the rules of the forums when we want to. I mean, how fair is it to flame someone for posting something that shouldn't be here, and then tell another person, "Hey, I like your post so this one is okay." I think we all agreed that this isn't a hot deal.

Getting there...up you go

Look.
Some people like to contribute to causes other than themselves.
Often they pay for the privilege to do so.
Here's an opportunity to have someone else foot the bill.
Therefore, for the "good-deed doers" of the forum, this is a very hot deal.

Lowenbotten, if you aren't interested in this deal, that's fine--deals aren't "one size fits all".
If you don't like this discussion, then move on to something else that interests you.

Everybody, when you make your donation, please post an update of can totals, so we can make sure Campbell's isn't fudging the numbers.

 

[jackywebdesign]

+1 it goes, and the total is 4,531,055 when i went.

 

[crypticlogin]

Bump at 4,556,956 + 1.

Seriously man, try to lighten up. All I was saying is let it slide cause they are donating cans to people less fortunate than all of us. I know this isn't a "hot deal" per se. And your idea of helping people must not be the same as mine...I think if the site can get more exposure then let it get more exposure. As for your little, " I think we all agreed that this isn't a hot deal," you could not be more wrong, because this thread is still going strong. Sorry buddy, and you really should allow people to rate you, why did you stop?

 

[jackywebdesign]

up to 4,572,333 it goes...

 

[pcNate]

Now 4,575,447...

 

[HonkeyDonk]

Well, that's an awful thing to say. I disagree completely; how can you compare the worth of internet discussion forums to anything good that happens in the REAL world? I'd be perfectly content for the entire internet to permanantly collapse in a big tsunami of useless spam if, in exchange, a proportionate amount of charity and selflessness sprung up all around.

bump bump bump for a good cause

It may not be a hot deal for us, but I think it is for the good of all those less fortunate.
+1 can from me. Go Skins!

 

[jackywebdesign]

4,653,073 now, go bears.. (although they just fired the head coach today..... :walks away mumbling something: )

 

[Crucial]

I'm not suprised they are in the lead. Now off to the superbowl!

What do you mean I should allow other people to rate me? As far as I can tell, I am set up so people may rate me. I still stand by my statement that this is not a hot deal. It certainly doesn't help me any.

 

[crypticlogin]

It certainly doesn't help me any.

Since you have a hard time understanding basic ideas and thoughts of others, let me rephrase and reword in a way (I hope) that you can easier grasp:


THE WORLD DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND YOU.

Ummm, this isn't a hot deal, is it?

Well since you asked, I'll answer: Sure it is!

And thanks for bumping the thread and keeping it alive, validating it as a Hot Deal!

I'm telling you, this isn't a hot deal. This thread should be either locked or taken to an alternative forum. This thread doesn't belong here. 'Nuff said.

Maybe you don't realize that this good feeling inside when we do something good is actually a valuable product. The whole premise that charitible organizations base their donation drives on is the fact that to normal human beings (perhaps cyborgs will not understand) a good feeling inside is an actual valuable product that they are selling to you. People wouldn't have any motivation to give to others "selflessly" if that were not the case. Everything we do has a selfish driver behind it.

Now to discuss how this thread is actually a hot deal. In this thread the OP describes a way to acquire this good feeling of giving for free. Everyone who participated derrived some value from this deal, and they got it for free. If that isn't a hot deal I don't know what is.

Thanks for the info.
