I generally don't believe in tact, political correctness or good taste usually at all, in any form....but there's nothing funny at all about someone rotting away from cancer.

I have to admit, I laughed pretty hard when I read that.

yeah, I laughed. A joke's a joke. Someone has to be the butt of it. Its never as funny if it applies to you personally, but its always open season on celebrities.

Jason the Magnificent - 7-7-2009 at 02:10 PM

I still don't see why that particular thing is funny just because it happened to a celebrity....


Wether its about Patrick Swayze, Uncle Schecky or Mel Torme's step neice Carrol....why exactly is it funny?

SS76 - 7-7-2009 at 02:48 PM

I think ALOT of fucked up things are funny. I laugh when people get their heads chopped off in movies. Why? Guess I'm just not a sensitive guy.

Jason the Magnificent - 7-7-2009 at 02:52 PM

I guess I'm completely lost then if one thing is related to another.

XnMeX - 7-7-2009 at 04:33 PM

Ok, here's a more friendly / innocent joke...



Knock Knock


Who's there?



9/11

clevohardcore - 7-7-2009 at 10:52 PM

That was so not funny

defstarsteve - 7-7-2009 at 11:21 PM

I laughed at the 911 joke...
cancer does suck

Mark Lind - 7-8-2009 at 01:26 AM

Of course cancer is terrible. But the joke was clever so it's ok to laugh. And it's probably true.... the poor bastard probably won't make it to the end of the year.

XHonusWagnerX - 7-8-2009 at 06:47 AM

I laughed.... cancer sucks.... my grandma died from cancer last year and that sucked, but the joke was funny.

Jason the Magnificent - 7-8-2009 at 07:42 AM

Jimmy Norton...look out.

yeah, cancer jokes are pretty funny....


Christmas

Little Johnny wakes up on christmas morning, runs downstairs and is greeted by his parents and hundreds of presents under the tree.

"Oh Wow!" cries Little Johnny as he starts tearing away at all the wrapping paper. Little Johnny is so excited as he opens the presents. He has a brand new BMX, a skateboard, a playstation, a brand new PC, a scooter, a climbing frame - everything a little boy would want.

When he finishes opening all the presents, Little Johnny asks his parents if he can go round to Little Timmy's house to tell him about all the wonderful presents he got.

"Of course you can Little Johnny, off you go, but be back before dinner!"

So off Little Johnny goes, and gets to Little Timmy's house.

"Oh Timmy! This is the best christmas EVER! I got a playstation, a BMX, a new computer - everything i could ever want!!"

"Oh your so lucky", replies Little Timmy, "I wish I had cancer."




Refusing Treatment

A woman with terminal cancer returns to religion with fervor. She knows that God will help her get better.

Early in her sickness, a surgeon proposes radical surgery.

"No", she says, "I don't want to get mutilated and suffer pain. It's not necessary, God will help me".

A while later, she sees a radiologist and he proposes radiation to treat the tumor, which by now is uncomfortably large. "No", she says, "I don't want radiation burns inside and out. It's not necessary. God will help me."

A year later, the cancer has metastasized. It's painful and she is referred to an oncologist. Chemotherapy is advised. "No", she says, "I don't want to be sick all the time and lose my hair as well. It's not necessary. God will help me".

Soon after, she dies. She goes to Heaven and demands an audience with God. "Why didn't you help me?," she whines.

"What do you mean? I sent you help three times: a surgeon, a radiologist and an oncologist. What more did you want?"



Three Choices

A very arrogant oncologist, Dr. Giovanni, dies and goes straight to Hell. On arrival the Devil says, "I'm going to give you three choices, which is more than you ever gave your patients. Whichever door you choose will be how you'll spend eternity."

So the doctor opens the first door and sees a mob of people sitting on a floor covered with spikes. He goes to the next door and sees a humongous crowd of sinners lying down in maggots. At the third door, there is a throng of people chatting happily and drinking coffee, although they are up to their knees in manure.

"Thank God," he exalts, "It smells terrible, but least I could drink coffee and be able to talk to people."

He enters and joins the group. He is about to sip his first coffee when a loudspeaker announces, "Coffee break is over. Back to standing on your heads!"




What did the deaf, dumb and blind kid get for Christmas.....?
Cancer.


How many cancer victims does it take to change a light bulb?
None: they're too weak to climb the ladder


Q How many cancer patients does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A. Just one, but it takes a support group to cheer him on, and there's a lot of grieving afterwards.



Praying For A Miracle
A religious man discovers that he has testicular cancer, and decides to pray for a miracle. The next day he visits a urologist, who tells him he must have surgery immediately. He tells the doctor "I do not want you to remove my testicle, I am praying for a miracle from God". Then he visits a radiologist, who tells him that he must begin radiation therapy immediately. He tells the doctor "I do not want you to expose my body to radiation, I am putting my faith in God." Finally he visits an oncologist, who tells him that he must start chemotherapy immediately. He tells the doctor "I do not want you to inject me with caustic chemicals, God will heal me." A few months later he dies and goes to heaven, where he is very upset and asks God why he didn't give him a miracle. God replies "I gave you three miracles, a urologist, an oncologist and a radiologist, but you chose to ignore them."



This friend of mine had felt unwell for months, so he decided to see his doctor. The doctor examined him and referred him to the hospital to see various specialists. After a couple of weeks, all the test results came through, so my friend returned to see his doctor.

"I'm very sorry", said the doctor. "I'm afraid I have bad news and worse news."
"Tell me the worst."

"I'll be honest, you have cancer, you'll be dead in three months."

"Shit! " said my friend. "What on earth is the bad news?"

"You also have Alzheimer's Disease."

"Alzheimer's? Oh well, at least I don't have cancer."

Some of those jokes are actually funny, because they're jokes...that happen to have cancer involved in them. A good joke is a good joke no matter what it's about.

What they're not is...knock knock, patrick swayze has cancer and is dying har har playground type jokes.
