    Wristbands seem to be more about following the herd than they are about showing support for anything or anyone right now.

    Im sure there are plenty of people who have a positive intention behind wearing one, but i'd like to bet the majority is just flaunting them as a 'hip' accessory... which probably went out of fashion about 3-6 months ago anyways.

    Your's is more like a bracelet though, much better than all the wristbands. I've got a livestrong one of a while ago. Prepares for backlash!:rolleyes:

    it annoyed me how some people donated to this tsunami appeal and then made sure they told everyone they knew how much they had donated...when it was only a few £££ really and they would spend it without thinking in a bar or wherever

    i know it's better than doing nothing but there is no reason to show off about it!

    I like the idea behind the blue ones. They were free weren't they?

    They are now selling for £10-£20 on ebay! :( :evil:

    its a load of bollox about it being for charity. say if you buy one for a dollar, then after the directors and managers salaries, advertising, marketing, rent, computer systems, and all other overheads, about 2-5% goes to the cause. BIG FUCKING DEAL.

    i do have one yes... i got it a while ago, and i did get it for the charity (admittedly i probably wouldnt have looked if i wouldnt have wore it, but thats irrelevant) - i do donate, in more ways than one. i quite like the little band and i also like what it stands for. sorry if that isn't good enough for you, but if so - tough shit, i dont do it to make myself feel better, it's merely a gesture, interpret it how you will, but im going to ignore you if you criticise me for it.

    :rolleyes:

    are these the modern day equivalent of cyber bead bracelets, do you swap them with your newly found bestfriend on nights out?
