Why ARE we funding this?

One thing you always count on is that whenever someone comes up with a great idea, someone will inevitably do something stupid with it.


She's since edited her GFM page after the unsurprising backlash at the idea of crowdsourcing a boob job.  Granted, you can crowdsource pretty much anything but at some point you have to wonder if there's a moment where you ask yourself, "Is this a good idea?" Is it a good idea to set up a fundraiser on the same place that's used to help people recover from tragedies and hardships and help other's jump start business? Is it a good idea to try to paint a sob story how this boob job will magically improve your self-esteem and catapult you to the lofty world of cosplay fame?

I feel these very important questions did not get processed.

But obviously crowdsourcing for something as necessary as a boob job for inevitable +5 Confidence and Convention circuit fame was bound to produce other enterprising copy cats. My friend decided to create a GFM that I really felt was worthy and I was all prepared to donate my money. I mean look at how glorious it is:

 

Why would you NOT want to fund this?

Sadly, the good people at GoFundMe did not feel the same and sent him this friendly letter:



I was sadden it was taken down before I got a chance to contribute.

And perplexed how my friend's dick enlargement donation fund seemed less worthy a cause than helping an aspiring fringe community celebrity get the boobs of her dreams. I don't know what he's going to do with a 17-incher (other than your girl) but it seems to be equally important.

Why can't my friend raise money to get a ridiculously large penis? I am full of mock outrage.
