Sorry, but I do my charitable giving locally. That tag is nifty, though...

All my money goes to the NRA. And I refuse to have anything to do with PayPal also. Sorry.

79% more legitimacy? Really? You mean even the stupidest of my stupid posts can make me look good? Well, maybe not good but better? Cool.

You know, I think there are a couple of people on SLOG that could use two of these badges.

I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just sayin'.

Okay, that was stupid of me. But I looked good saying it!

I tend to think of it as being part of the community. If you find value logging in and joining the discussion, making e-friends, venting/ranting your frustrations, expressing your opinion, or getting free sex advice, etc., then you have joined the Slog family. Families are local even when they aren't just down the street, because they reside in your heart as something you value. And, if you didn't find some value then you wouldn't spend your time here. So, I see value in supporting my neighbors to the north. Kind of a concrete way of saying thanks for the laughs and sharing. But, what do I know, money has always been just a tool to me. A tool one uses to make life better for everyone. Just my $0.02

I'll agree PayPal sucks. But, that is a whole other can of worms and, to me, a source of shame. Here's hoping you can find something else next year, Strangercrombie.

Well, I'm also a victim of the economy and can't afford the $20. Maybe once times are good...

Ooo, shiny!

OK fine. Happy now? Srsly, tho, great orgs so yeah, I can do without lattes next week.

Come on, people. That donor tag totally gets you laid. Do it.

Go, Mrs. Fnarf!!

Hey Matt/@5,

Sorry, to hear that the economy has treated you badly. I hope it turns around soon. Holidays are hard this year, and you've got a lovely family to rejoice over and celebrate with, I hope you all are richly blessed with love and wonderful memories.

Ps. I was only explaining as to why I participate. The community thang. Of course,"that donor tag totally gets you laid" is a perk, too. :) Shorter. Your reasons are valid, friend, and I hope you didn't think that I was judging them. If so, then I'm very sorry. :(

but by whom, fnarf?

OK I am now ready to be laid.

@11, why, by me, of course! I wasn't bragging, I was offering.

Brace yourself, Hawke. The Fnarfmobile approacheth.

Wow, it totally works! You're taking this comment way more seriously than you would have before. Tooootally.

Wow OuterCow, Hawke and Cow. You guys are sooooo cool and as of right now I toooootally get 79% of everything you say!

@12, brace yourself is right. This is going to hurt me more than it hurts you.

Do we have to have sex with Fnarf after donating? I'm a Canadian and in my "province" (as we call our states) we don't have teh sexuals.

@16 Score!

@18 Next time read the fine print, Puty. I'll never be clean again... but in a good way.

I had to leave Slog fest last evening prematurely (speaking of sex) - so I wonder who lucked out with the personal photo of Kate Middleton's mother-in-law-to-be.

Humbug. I donated last year and never got my tag. Sending my cash directly to charities this year.

dear fnarf, you are spoken for by the lovely mrs. fnarf, but i'll take carles puyol instead.
