I Don't Race For Cures

I think all that pink dye they wear during the races makes them kind of crazy.
"Runners are athletes. Joggers are douche-bags."  - yours truly is a jogger as I'm too fucking old to run anymore.  I guess that makes me an old douche-bag.

"Many of them now say they are uncomfortable with the size of the foundation's executive salaries, lawsuits against smaller nonprofit groups, partnerships with companies whose products may increase breast cancer risk and lack of investment in research to prevent and treat the disease."

"As many as 80 charities have received letters from Komen attorneys over the years asking them to refrain from using the Komen-trademarked pink ribbon or the catchphrase "for the cure."

"In 2010, Komen teamed up with KFC in a promotion called "Buckets for the Cure," which raised $4.2 million for the charity through sales of pink buckets of chicken."

The only time I get the urge to wear fuzzy pink bunny ears and pink ribbons in my hair is when I'm three sheets to the wind drunk.
