Stewart's response on Twitter:

"No. The whole YT selfie thing has gone lame by now. I just sent a check to ALS Association - which is not lame."

I give him props for that. Personally I think the whole thing has gotten a bit silly and less about the charity than turning ALSA into the next Susan G Komen "charity" machine. And unless you're gonna go all out like the Foo Fighters did, it's not even worth the ice bucket at this point! Just send the money if you're so inclined.

I think a lot of people don't understand the challenge, but STEWART apparently does. The challenge is that you either donate to ALS or you agree to have a bucket of ice poured over your head. This was meant to encourage you to donate. But I guess the whole thing took a life of its own and people forgot what the intent of the challenge was. So kudos to STEWART.

Come on, Stewart! You cannot be serious.

Yes, the money for research is more important. HOWEVER, the water on the head is a fun way to keep the challenge going and call attention to the cause. And fans love this stuff.

I hope you will reconsider. It would also be fun to see who you call out. Don't be a Debbie Downer. You are a fun, dude.

Yeah, Stewart. How annoying of you to exercise free will.

Fair enough, Stewart........

Shame, though, I would have loved you to nominate Gordo!
