This is my feelings on this also. My brother was challenged and he was being pretty arrogant about not doing it, then he posted a bunch of crap about wasting water etc trying to find a high road which caused a facebook fight leading to him deleting his account.
If you don't want to do it just ignore it, simple as that. If someone hasn't done it just leave them alone simple as that.

Most people on facebook that did the challenge probably still couldn't really tell you about the disease, they did it becuase it was trendy and an attention grabber. Luckily the by product of humans being lemmings in this case, is that it actually has raised a lot of money.
I generally find these sweeping trends on social media pretty annoying, and in some ways I found the ice bucket challenge annoying -- but it was effective. I even participated in it myself. If none of my nominees end up doing it that's fine too, their decision.
