Why I hate Comic Relief

Friday, March 16, 2007 6:24 PM

It's not the cause, I have nothing against giving to charity. I hate Comic Relief and other TV telethons in general for two reasons:

1. It's one night where a bunch of non-entities that like to think they are celebrities humiliating themselves. Especially newsreaders. Why do they feel the need to dress up in stockings?

2. The guilting you into giving them money. They show you pictures of starving Africans and say that if you don't give them money then the chld will die. It's the same with the charities that get people to sign up on the street. I really hate the emotional blackmail.

I will give money to charity but I don't want to be forced.
