To be fair, I'm just looking for an Idle waste of time.

It is well-known that Rich People get less cancer. Whether it's better medical care, better food, better working conditions, social pressures to avoid cigarettes and overdrinking, or multiple factors are the cause. Heck, they even weigh less on average.

Bosses are richer than non-bosses. It's not news, it's news.com.au

/ Rich, single, childless women are more likely to get breast cancer. Film at eleventy.

After studying humans diseases I have come to the conclusion that Cancer only farks with certain people.

In what imaginable way is this ironic?

 
dwalder 2008-02-17 04:45:50 AM  
As a humans disease I'm getting a kick out of all these cancers.

I guess February 17 is Misunderstanding Irony Day.

FTFY

/Not only would that be ironic, it'd be ironic that i's ironic
//Does that make less or more sense that way?

Blah blah blah, if you don't have enough money to live comfortably for the next 150 years, you're going to die a slow painful death. I think we all get it by now.

All we need is rain on our wedding day and we've got the trifecta...

 
Floriduh Farkette 2008-02-17 07:01:36 AM  
I read that as "more" likely to die from cancer. Oh well, there's still a chance my old boss could DIAF, right?

Big $$$$ = Healthy long life? Who'da thunk it?

Well, in agriculture and manufacturing, you don't have to look far. The rank and file in those industries get exposed to some nasty shiat.

 
LobsterSausage 2008-02-17 09:05:40 AM  
That's not ironic, it's just unfair. Is there an unfair tag?

 
dc0012c 2008-02-17 09:12:45 AM  
Maybe "irony" means something else in NZ.

 
sir_nose 2008-02-17 10:31:28 AM  
not ironic

 
Silly_Sot 2008-02-17 11:40:24 AM  
Stress is a strong and confirmed risk factor for cancers. Bosses create stress. Underlings get the stress. Bosses have more money to dissipate the stress that they do get.

 
Silly_Sot 2008-02-17 11:42:38 AM  
Among people of extremely limited mental means, "ironic" means "exactly what we expect".

These are the same dimwits who think that "irregardless" means "regardless", that "ancestor" means "descendant", and who name their children "Britney".

Shouldn't articles about Tony Danza be in the celebrity section?

 
Moonfisher 2008-02-17 08:09:32 PM  
Maybe bosses become bosses because their DNA is more advanced, making them natural leaders, smarter, and equipped with a better immunity system.

/not a boss
//I SWEAR...

 
wibwib 2008-02-17 11:02:01 PM  
Irony? Meaning it has lots of Iron?

FAIL

 
Scifientologist 2008-02-18 02:03:51 AM  
But more likely to die of lead poisoning?

/blam blam blam

 
Isildur 2008-02-18 04:38:12 AM  
I'm guessing that submitter used the irony tag because he or she is socialist and considers CEOs to be cancers on society or something? Otherwise I can't fathom what was meant by the use of the irony tag here.

 
Zarkin Frood [TotalFark] 2008-02-18 09:29:46 AM  
That's right, because ulcers aren't cancer, are they?
