    I'm perfectly happy to screenshot my membership email when I do it.

    I agree with you, it's not rational, but you were arguing about Queenslanders in Origin being proud of their contribution to the state and one could argue the same for the general population. It just seemed like a flaw in your argument, or it might be the lack of sleep I've had. Either way that sorta stuck out to me and got me thinking :p

    Ignore the cunt. Or better yet, cockblock him. I trust you as I trust Julian.

    I think taking pride in one's contribution to something is a little different than what Gemmell is talking about - Pride in a nation.

    :huh: Don't laugh at me. Stop Cribbage. He's trying to make a fool out of the respected member of the forum, Maroon_Faithful :shock:

    Donate it to the Salvation Army I reckon ;) as much as the church side of the organisation isn't great, the charity side is formidable.

    Do donations actually help? Serious question. There have been all sorts of cancer research donations over many, many years, but I dunno how much it's actually helping, since there hasn't been much progress.

    Research takes a long long time. Last time I had a heart check up, they asked to take blood samples for research into heart disease, and I daresay a lot of people say no, so getting samples would be very hard and would take years I reckon. That's only based on my limited knowledge though.
     
  11. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Of course they help. It's just that the progress is non-linear.
     
  12. loganb JEM Logan

    Also, with some charities, donations don't only go towards research.

    If no one donated we'd be years behind where we are currently, due to staff, equipment etc

    If theres suddenly a break through in 5 years time that without people raising/giving money would of taken 10 years or even just 6 years instead of 5 then it would be worth everything thats been donated so far

    Its not a case of when we get to this huge total of money cancers going to be cured obviously

    Theres also been quite a lot of progress in prevention, treatment methods, development and drugs etc
     
  14. Fiery GR Smith

    So ahhh...you work for them?
     
  15. Verigoat S Verigotta

    Clearly I must, "we" never means anything other than that

    Asshat
     
  16. Fiery GR Smith

    Who the fuck is we then? You copy and paste that gedeknepper?
     
  17. loganb JEM Logan

    :lol: Fiery's being such a cunt.
     
  18. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    "Being" is superfluous.
     
  19. Fiery GR Smith

    Again ?? Explain

    Fiery, I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy to be calm when you've found something going on. But take your time, think a lot.. think of everything you've got. You will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not.
