*dies* Way to read into my comment, never said anything about anyone not being involved with anything. Point I'm making is, you don't NEED a computer. You don't NEED the internet. But you have 'em anyway, right? So do I! We're all like the OP to some degree, so I'm going "lol" at everyone being like oh my god that's such a terrible thing to say!

[grayout.livejournal.com]

No.

But unless you do that, you've done it/are doing it, too, to some extent. I'm laughing at the people who act like they don't.

you're supposed to feel BAD, not congratulate yourself on screwing over some poor needy schmuck.

Agreed. Reading that secret made me feel guilty and want to go do something to help people and stuff too. But I got the feeling that the wording on the secret was harsh because... the secret was harsh. I'd help people because, you know, helping people is good, but would I rather spend that money on fandom? Sometimes!

What's kind of funny too is that if that secret had said "I spend money I could be spending on charity on fandom," I bet people would have supported it and been all aww, don't feel bad, I do it too! *dies*

Oh yeah, let me add:

oh my god that's such a terrible thing to say! <-- as if they're not guilty of it at all themselves.

Quote:

I think it's more the fact that the secret maker is acting like she's PROUD of not giving a damn about starving orphans, like being selfish and callous is nothing to be ashamed of. Sure, you accuse the rest of us of not donating as much as we should, but I'd like to think we'd all feel a tad guilty after looking at a picture of some adorable little girl from an impoverished country.

Also, it's not exactly fair to assume anyone who can afford a computer isn't involved with any charities.

Word.
