Cheeky gits, go fund me to buy a car!

RandallFlagg

Listening to Radio X Chris Moyles Show this morning on way to work and he mentioned that 2 cheeky 17 year old brothers, The Burke Brothers,  had set up a "just giving" page to crowd fund £50 to help them buy a car to share.

With Chris' advertising on the radio they smashed the total quickly:

Fair play lads, good on ya.

Really?

Yes really, absolutely goddamn fucking real, as real as a real thing that is as real as the stink that shit makes.

The next thing you know, some herbert who thinks he’s Stevie Ray Vaughan will expect the general public to buy him a pre-CBS Strat....

A black one perchance?

I mean a sunburst one would be preferable - but I suppose if you knew an ageing player who would sell you a black one on the cheap because he’d never heard it ‘played like that’ - I’m sure it would do....

That's a bit racist.
Herberts come in all colours and sizes.

Up to £2.5K now, they would probably still be at zero without Chris Moyles help.

I was listening to that and whilst it was funny was quite surprised as I thought you could only donate to charitable causes on just giving

Thought begging was illegal..

This was my thoughts. I do wonder how much car insurance would be on a car driven by 2x 17 year old males

They asked for money. People chose to give them money. What's the problem?

Especially on the Ferrari they'll soon be able to buy if the donations keep rolling in.
