its ok to donate to charity and to help cancer survivors and all. But do you really need to gain a confidence boost by going round flashing off some plastic yellow band showing you donated a *whole* $1 to the cause ?

no. no you don't.

I can't remember who, but someone I know made black "fuck lance" bracelets that were selling really well.

nofx 12-28-2004 04:14 AM

exactly, I met this guy today that was fanatical about his, almost braggish.

like because he had one he was 10x better than people who didnt have one.

It made me want to kick him in the face.

I wouldnt even be surprised to find out that those bracelets where manufactured in China or some 3rd world country LOL

if you could find a url or contact the person that made those, I would happily buy a few. ;]

that is an awesome idea.

99% of the people that wear then wear it as a fashion item

I'll scan my trillian logs for who mentioned it and hit em up.

All the damn trendy aeropostale kids at school are always sporting the yellow real ones. It's pretty hilarious.

thanx.

it's sad that something such at that has become a "trend/fad"

I was at a party once and saw a guy buy one of these bracelets off someone for $5 and a beer.

Phoenix 12-28-2004 04:55 AM

I guess im out of the loop i have never heard of these bracelets :eek2

Found my friend with them. I'll hit him up this afternoon. Maybe I'll offer to help start a site, charge $3 per, donate $2 to cancer research and keep the third dollar for costs and all that.

You'll have to keep more than that unless you plan on ordering quantity of like 5000+ on your order..

They range from around $1.65 - $2.25 cost per bracelet for small quantity orders of usually over 500 bracelets

MattO 12-28-2004 05:53 AM

There were some folks on another (not adult) forum who were trying to have them made up in bulk saying "Trend Whore" on them. Don't know if it ever happened, though.

AdultNex 12-28-2004 06:02 AM

Most people that have one don't even know what it means.

Trend whore bandwagon bitches.

so what does that make someone with nothing better to do than sitting around starting message board threads bitching about what other people do with their money, or what they wear?

Apparently there was a mix up a while back re emergency care. A lot of hospitals put yellow plastic wrist tags on patients that do not wish to be resucitated should they go into a coma. Apparently, there was some confusion between these wrist bands and those trendy Live Strong bracelets.

Axzar 12-29-2004 03:57 AM

Here in the Philippines, the kids are all wearing Nike branded bracelets that say "Baller" on them.

I never noticed baller bracelets in the states. Are they ahead or behind the times?
