Those Rubber Bracelets
I just feel so confused about these bracelets. Especially the ones that are supposed to show "support" to causes. Do proceeds go to the causes? Does wearing them say, "Yes, I am against cancer."
Who isn't against cancer? Am I pro-cancer because I don't wear a bracelet?
And then there are the ones like those above that don't even have a cause. In my google-image searching I found one that read "Drama Queen." Sign me up. Now there is a cause I'll support.

my friend Lee has one of those that says "cancer sucks." i like it.
They sell them at the White Hen - how "common" is THAT? A large coffee, two smilie faced cookies, a pack of Marlboros, and oh, yes, and that orange loop of rubber. I almost have a rainbow now!
It kind of reminds me of the Beanie baby craze.
Then there's the real question... what do all those Chinese slaves who pound the color into the rubber loop think of us? "What kind of idiot wears a rubber loop?"
So don't think I'm a terrible person, but I can think of one reason to like cancer. Population control. You think the streets of Japan are crowded, think what the world would be like without cancer.
Okay, I'm pretty sure you can shoot me now. In fact, I'd like it if you did. No one should get past page 65 in the Awful Book From Hell.
