Taking Dares For A Good Cause
One of the things that always irked me about those dare TV shows like Fear Factor and the rest -- even much of reality television in general -- is that they always seemed very selfish and self-absorbed.
It always seemed to scream, "Me!" As in, "Look at me, see what I am doing" and "What's in it for me to take on this competition?"
A new website takes the reality-dare concept, brings it to the Internet, and puts the "me" on its head. That's because people on DareDealer donate to charities to support the dares on the site in addition to making a little cash for themselves.
One of the dares advertised on DareDealer right now involves a chef named Dennis preparing a glass of something called "DareDealer Putrid Protein Potion," which consists of clams, octopus, dog food, milk and other ingridients all mixed together.
It all sounds like mindless fun, until you take a look at some of the causes dares on DareDealer support: Living Beyond Breast Cancer, the Houston SPCA, Rescue Mission of Trenton and many more. Charities supported through DareDealer are categorized right on the site, so you can find a cause that's important to you.
Support someone else's dare -- or take up a dare yourself. In this case, it's all for a good cause!
