Ever since the infamous “God Bless America” ribbon magnets<\/a> came on the scene, it seems like everyone and their dog has decided that they, too, should find a cause and make a ribbon magnet for it. Everything now from tsunami relief<\/a>, to childhood cancer, to autism (pictured above) and even the totally tasteless “I just had a miscarriage<\/a>” ribbon has been devised. It amazes me how incredibly motivated people are to buy a worthless piece of magnet-impregnated plastic that’s guaranteed to scratch the paint on your car, and yet has NO guarantee of actually donating some proceeds to the causes represented.<\/p>\n If you want to help a cause folks, cut a check to the appropriate charity, to ensure they get your money… all of it<\/strong>. Don’t waste that money on a silly looking flimsy magnet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" this whole ribbon car amgnet fad is starting to get out of hand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-330","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-general-stuff"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/330","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=330"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/330\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=330"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=330"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scaredpoet.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
