Thanks for not making fun of a guy whose first language isn’t English and who’s missing many family members because of the earthquake. You’re such a "stand up guy".

jeez, i made a joke about not making a joke, and you guys still get pissed...
English also isn’t my first language, so believe me, I know what you mean. I’m just trying to get a few laughs. No need to take it too seriously..

I should really put a disclaimer on these tweet tweet posts with all the people getting pissed at me..
even maggie got pissed off on the ‘crabby’ joke I did.
Dear Resident,
Most of the comments I make here are lame jokes, which are intended to be just that, Jokes. Don’t take it too seriously.
with love,
-Anton

and I do feel for the people of Haiti,
that’s the main reason I placed it before the fold, so everyone can see it and maybe they can help out.
My home country, the Philippines, also had a similar set back months ago, where millions of people lost their homes, and lots of people passed away cause of the storms that caused massive floods and landslides, so I can really relate to what they must be feeling now. So again sir, it was a lame joke about not making a joke,don’t take it too seriously.

And there was another 6.1 quake in Haiti this morning.

What charity does that donate to?
There’s a lot of places that are scams, but even worse are the charities that mean well but can’t handle the influx. Yele Haiti (Wyclef Jean’s charity) is a horrible thing to donate to because it’s just too small and understaffed to handle things, and also rumors that it’s been used to pay for his personal expenses in the past.
Everyone pay close attention to where your money goes. Take the time to make sure it gets there. Texting a number that you are told does nothing unless you are sure it’s reputable and effective. Let’s make sure Haiti gets the help it needs and that anyone stricken by tragedy deserves.
"Someone is WRONG on the internet. What do you want me to do? LEAVE? Then they'll keep being wrong!"
-Randall Munroe
Text ‘HAITI’ to 90999: This service was set up by the U.S. State Department. Texting “HAITI” to the number will donate $10 to the International Red Cross, and will appear as a charge on your wireless bill.
Text ‘YELE’ to 501501: This will donate $5 to Yele Haiti, a non-profit organization founded by singer and Haiti native Wyclef Jean. A donation to Yele will also appear as a charge on your cell bill. You can also donate larger amounts at Yele’s website.
These are the only safe ways to donate for US citizens for now

choose 90999,
that’s the red cross dude.
by Anton Tabuena on Jan 20, 2010 1:57 PM EST up reply actions
Thanks for the info.
Just text’d.
To ZephyrBrasil: Do not donate to Yele Haiti. It is like asking the guys behind the gun counter at Bass Pro to go to war instead of contacting the Marines. They are too small to handle things, and rumors of corruption/misuse of funds are flowing pretty heavy right now.

that's great!
You texting… not the corruption… haha :)

I meant safe in terms of security because I have seen many scams. I will choose the Red Cross then, thanks

Conan O’Brien has been pimping Ben Stiller’s relief fund and it’s pretty legit. Go to www.stillerstrong.org to make a donation.

Liddell's shirt
I die a little inside every time I see some bootleg hack job of Gary Watterson’s Calvin character. The man creates one of the best comic strips in history, chooses not to license the characters, and for his troubles has a bunch of unoriginal geniuses steal his character and make him piss on everything.

Yep
Every t-shirt shop in suburban USA.

Natasha Wicks as Farrah?
Yes please
Walking the line between intelligence and ignorance since 1985
@deowade
Looks yes, the voice…hey what do I care I won’t be seeing the movie anyway. Go right ahead.
Giving Shogun his props. I had the fight 48-47 Machida but Shogun put up a monumental performance and I am honored to have seen it in person.
After how terrible the last Charlie’s Angel’s were, I can’t imagine anything should make you want to see it.
