Halo 3 tourney aims to 'Finish the Fight' against breast cancer
We're talking about The Cavegirls Present: Fight Like a Girl, the Halo 3 tournament where all the proceeds go to fight breast cancer. Taking place on October 20, the only requirements beyond owning a copy of the game, and having an Xbox Live Gold account, is forking over the $10 entry fee.
As an added bonus, part of the rules include a no-asshole policy: "trash talking, racial slurs, sexist remarks, and other insulting comments" can constitute a DQ. Helping out a good cause and insurance the people you're playing with aren't the normal Live plebes? Sounds good to us.

Even if I do die every 0.7 seconds, at least I know that the charity wins in the end. That's good enough for me!

Of course, you could say it's essentially accurate, because they're girls. I suppose that excuses other comments, because it's also entirely possible to be "on the rag" or "have sand in your vagina".

We did this last year in Halo2 and this tournament has already doubled the amount raised last year! Please join us!

I don't have breasts. I have Halo Skills. And while I'm all for charity, why does it have to be some feminist based nonsense? Breast cancer is not even close to the leading cause of women's sickness. Janet Reno just needs to check herself a bit.
Why not run this on heart disease, which is the leading cause of death in women, not to mention a top killer in men.
The point is, without a prize, I'll give no support. If I wanted to help breast cancer, I'd start on those pink lids. Yogurt is more fun than Halo3 anywayz.
In closing:
How many feminists does it take to change a lightbulb?
Technically none, because feminism never actually changed anything. ^_^
