What I'm wondering is WHY.
This woman's "fundraising plan" makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
Unless she's just trying to find the most sadistic people out there who will pay £500 or more to essentially torture this woman.... Or is she the masochist? For thinking that "Yeah... This is a good idea!
WHAT??!? um....... NO.
Raising money for charity is great, especially that it goes into funding cancer research.
It's for a good cause... But this is just not the way to go about it.
I can't possibly imagine how she came up with idea.
They tried to explain the idea a little in the article... But I just don't get how an idea like this pops into someone's head, and their attitude is "Oh! That's a Brilliant plan!"
Whah?? Really? - So Finding people to bid for a spot on your soles, to tattoo their name is a good idea?
That just sounds like... Unnecessary torture.
I bet she would get WAYY more money if she offered her soles for a one hour- tickle torture session to the highest bidder, opposed to stabbing someone's name into them!
And btw this story had nothing to with tickling or anything like that - Ticklishness was only used to describe how sensitive her feet are - which are not going be tickled, No, they will be jabbed hundreds of times with a needle and permanently injected with ink.
Sorry, maybe I'm wrong about this .... But is there anyone else here who reads this and also this was just a terrible Idea to make money?
Hopefully others agree with me about possibly finding a better way to raise money other than having people bid to put you through a grueling hour of pain.
Who else thinks The hour-tickle session is both: smarter, and would have raised more money?
Since its for a good cause, I imagine there are a ton of Lers out there who would be willing to do this!
