Same here. Mscard should not be the first thing I think about when I see their marketing material. In full disclosure the local hospital was named after a guy named bob hence the x over one of the o’s but it’s still in very poor taste.I really wish they'd stop calling fund raisers stuff that is obviously intended to have the reaction you did. In my opinion, it doesn't help the cause - just makes a mockery of it. Lost someone to breast cancer and just can't find it in me to find humor in it.
I didn’t get offended either. I can understand how someone could. Two different perspectives.My sister died of breast cancer and my best girl friend died of breast cancer and my sister in law got a double mastectomy and now my favorite cousin has been diagnosed stage 4, but that does not offend me at all. I don't get it. Why am I supposed to be offended? Is it because they said "boob"? Here someone is going to the effort to raise money for the cause and I'm going to judge them for saying "boob"? I don't get it.

Who said anything about being offended? Just don't find that kind of marketing particularly humorous or useful. No reason to get upset over my view on it.
Well excuse me. Who said I was upset?
