The hypertext online internet web log of Chris

I’m under the impression that if your immune system is going to call it quits at a bout of flu, then it’s probably time to accept your fate.

Just don’t mention this view to anyone.

“Yeah, except if you’re having chemotherapy!”

Oh, brilliant. How do I talk myself out of this one?

Damn it.

Obviously I’m not talking about people that are terminally ill or going through extremely risky treatment for an illness that kills hundreds of thousands of people a year. That’s mental, I’m not making light of cancer, but if you die because you get flu, then you’re not going to last very long anyway, cancer or not.

That is, I don’t care about cancer for the sake of a stupid comment about swine-flu.

I’m obviously joking. I’m obviously not saying that people with any form of cancer are destined to die. Although, some will.

I’m especially not saying they should die from swine-flu. At least let the cancer kill them if they are going to die.

Anyway, why am I talking myself out of a situation that never even got this far? Because I’ve been arguing with myself about it.

What right do you have to play the cancer card to my stupid joke?

You played the cancer card!

Your friend has cancer, so I can’t joke about Swine-flu?????

That’s just wrong, and so is cancer.

I’ve been wondering for a while whether or not to do a more diary-type blog entry on this blog.

At the moment I’ve kept it to short random thoughts that I believe are either deliberately stupid, just an insult, or a deliberate joke that I’ve constructed. By telling you this, it kind of ruins the point. I think some are quite clever, but are so unfunny that they just come across as stupid. Which is great. Because that means you haven’t understood that it’s a joke. Which is the point.

So I think maybe an diary-type update here or there would be good. Then I can shoe-horn in a subtle “joke” when I fancy. Any stories on here are true and the so-called (by me) jokes are usually because I’ve thought of them whilst out-and-about or in-and-around. I don’t “work” on thinking of things to write on here. Except this entry…

I’ve also been thinking of making a “Facebook status” compilation. I think I’ve wasted some good one-liners on there. One-liners that I haven’t stolen from a “Funny Status” website. Anyway, they are long gone now.

I have a perfectly average life. A few downs, a few ups. That way, I’m never devastated, but I’m not usually too impressed either. I’m normally happy at least. Would anyone even read it? I don’t mind.

So, maybe I will, maybe I won’t. At least that’s for certain.
