Welcome to the "Least Intelligent Student Union in the Country"
The student council at Carleton University in Ottawa has made a shocking discovery*: Cystic Fibrosis only affects white men, and is therefore not an "inclusive enough" disease to raise money for. Needless to say, this causes a leeeetle backlash.

In response, the person who originally made the motion to remove CF from their charity list is "currently not able to live happily." How sad. :(

ETA: *And by "shocking", I mean "completely false".

Definitely only funny in a "gotta laugh or else I'll hit something" way.

I lost a good friend to Cycstic Fibrosis. She lived over fifteen years longer than her doctors gave her and she credited it to lots of laughter. So I'll laugh for her.

Laugh at the people who were stupid enough to think it was a good idea, and how they're being taken to task for their dumbassery. They crack my ass up.

My friend Iva did that too XD Dumbass doctor gave her three months to live; she was four at that time. When she passed away, she was twenty-one. And - yeah. She was also hilarious, and one of the most honestly kind people I've had the pleasure to know.

I'm quite sure that, in the hereafter, she's pointing and laughing at that doctor. XD
