Today, I'm participating in a 30 hour awareness-raising event on famine in Africa. I'm supposed to hand out leaflets to people from my booth. My school decided to hand out a literal crate-load of free cupcakes right in front of us. FML

So you think handing out cupcakes will somehow diminish the awareness of the famine? If you starve yourself, that'll somehow make the famine better? Don't be so naive. If you want to change it, do something about it. Raise money, go on a mission. But complaining about some cupcakes is a waste of time.

That is really sucky. I think your school doesn't care about your cause. But FYL for sure. You try to do something good about hunger and your stopped by the cup cake. Irony is funny sometimes.

Such a total slap in the face to your cause. Find the idiot that put that crate of cupcakes down in front of your booth and pelt him with the leftover ones.

Did you just seriously suggest wasting food when they OP was fasting for starving people in Africa? Seems a little counterproductive, don't you think?

108- It's not counterproductive. It's not as if OP was fasting to send the cupcakes and other food he/she would have eaten to those starving people. If anything, the cupcake bakers and the crate carrier in the scenario were the counterproductive ones. Getting rid of the cupcakes would actually be productive for OP's goal(raising awareness). You can't get the message of starvation out properly when you're feeding people snacks.

I know the feeling. I did practically the same thing (30 hour famine) and my friends made a 3 level cake I had to refuse..

And that is when you grab the entire crate of cupcakes and run to Africa to combat the famine.

They're testing your will power. In the long run, they're just supporting you! It just doesn't seem like it right now.

Once again, stop commenting. There isn't anything about will power in the fml
