So gofundme is turning into the internet equivalent of standing out by the highway off-ramp with a begging sign scribbled on cardboard? Only without all the hassle of standing around in the hot sun?
This person has a job, but no desire or ability to plan, scrimp, and save for her dreams and goals (which are NOT heartbreakingly out of reach for a normal person, like some life-changing surgery costs are for children, etc.) and just wants US to throw OUR OWN HARD EARNED CASH AT HER???!!!!
We need an answer to gofundme...is there already a "gofuckyourself" website in existence? If not there should be. |

4000 for AEMT? That's fucking retarded. My paramedic cert cost me around $6k at nearly four times the time investment. Hell, she can move here and we'll put her through the AEMT class for free.

I don't know....
I read the request and I can think of a lot of worse things I could donate towards. Seems like a driven young lady trying to better herself. Her written skills, if she wrote that, are pretty good. And she seems passionate about the career. It never hurts to ask politely for help and we are free to choose not to give, unlike welfare where you are required by law and threat of very bad things if we don't pay our taxes to give to the lazy and useless people. |

We had to pass fisdap with an 80 or better by the end of August. A true pain in the ass. 15 started in January and 6 of us made it to the end. There's still a couple who didn't pass national registry. Which is just as bad as fisdap.
financial aid covered mine except for books. |

Your smile looks too happy and is making me suspicious. Since I forgot this was still GD, I may need to qualify my statement as a suggestion for a NON-PORN, non-sex-focused in any way "gofuckyourself" website that exists to tell the shakedown artists of gofundme that they suck. And I now feel like Homer Simpson in his attempt to cover / counteract all the possible negatives when he tried to make a wish on the monkey paw or magic lamp (can't remember which it was) |
