This is my blog about my cancer ("my cancer," like it's a pet or a hobby). I'm starting it because I'm fairly lazy and repeating the same stories over and over as friends and family ask about the latest development seems really inefficient. This also gives everyone access to the same source material, thus minimizing the "telephone" problem. We'll see if it works and how long I bother to keep it up...

Random Cancer Humor
I was bored, and I just thought these were funny. And not to be critical, but I'm not sure the copywriter who came up with the throat cancer warnings ought to be waiting for a call from the MacArthur Foundation, unless, of course, that was intentional, in which case that person operates at a level of subtlety way beyond mine.

I love these, especially the Marlboro Man ad, which makes me laugh every time I see it. Glad to see that cancer hasn't brightened your sense of humor, because humor is like coffee, chocolate and rum--the darker, the better.
ReplyDeleteIt was the lung-deficient Marlboro man who got me started. There's an office facing the street near my bus stop that has it in the window. I was surprised to learn it's from a California PSA campaign, so there are lots of Marlboro men making snarky comments about smoking, but I still like this one about the lung best.
