The British story "Fark scale of attractiveness" is whacked.

"Smoking Hot" means somewhat attractive
"Cute" means... well... you be the judge

Ain't no way I'm clicking on a link that says "homely woman"...

Two Dogs Farking: Everyone who uses the word "cute" to describe another one of these heinous whales deserves a cockpunch. I'm looking at you, submitter.

Great British Punk band...

Throat cancer kills Christopher Hitchens, but this hosebeast lives? What a world we live in.

It's not a toomah.

This thing about calling a woman cute in the headline and then she turns out to be horrid has got to stop.
It's not funny, it's not a good business model for Fark, and it pisses me off.

Mad Scientist: Throat cancer kills Christopher Hitchens, but this hosebeast lives? What a world we live in.

This so-called "hosebeast" could mother the next Einstein, or Mozart, or Kerouac. Who are you to say who deserves to live or die?

Ms Osborn said: 'The consultant turned round to me and said, "It appears you have coughed up your cancer. Congratulations."

wow.

What I wonder: is she technically in remission? If so, she needs to have very regular check ups in case more tumors develop.

No pic of said "cough-up" so I'm skeptical...

Just, please, say "woman". Glad she coughed up her tumor.

She ain't "cute". I still woulda clicked the link.

If I were a modmin, headlines that directly contradicted the article would be redder faster than any stoplight crossing over McCarran Boulevard in Reno.

Yeah, how sad that six people don't have to lose their mom to a horrible battle with cancer.

Subby... (nsfw)

She has 6 kids?

No, she is still a cancer.

Agreed.

I can see a generation growing up thinking that cute and smoking hot mean ugly and hideously ugly respectively. In the same way that bad came to mean good in certain subcultures. Maybe we should just say 'Fark Cute', or 'Fark Smoking Hot' to avoid any confusion? And if Smoking Hot or Cute don't mean what they used to mean, what do we use in their place?

I think it's only one sub since it's always in the morning (GMT -5) and always from an English paper.

Whomever that person is should be hunted down and beaten severely about the neck and head.

mediablitz: "Cute" means... well... you be the judge

Apparently in this case, "cute" means buffarilla.

The article had pictures of the tumor, but not the cute girl.
What gives?

The submitter just forgot a comma after cute... Not their fault you clicked a link.

I wouldn't touch that with subby's peen and with Drew pushing!

(but apparently subby would...)

I am gonna need a LOT more beer for that to get close to cute.

looks like there is still a bit of the tumor between her teeth

/???

What she coughed up prolly looked like a slice of calamari with hair on it.

I wonder if she smelled it after she coughed it up. I think I would have had to smell it. It's like when someone passes you the last little bit of a jug of milk they say has expired. Milk isn't that expensive. You know you're going to get more on Tuesday but you still have to give it a whiff and take a tiny sip.

no u don't

Coffin Coughin' cures cancer?

So where is the cute? All I see is a tumour

Is it possible they have already been beaten severely and it damaged their eyes, brain, or both and it has caused them to truly believe what they are posting?

I could care less what she looks like. Glad she beat cancer. Would be a shame for those six children to lose their mother.

Careful: I (in jest) threatened a modmin with bodily harm once and was banninated. They can be over sensitive at times. Comes from too many Cheetos and basement living.

Must have been "legitimate" cancer since the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down.

'I have various conditions including Asperger's and fibromyalgia but I don't sit down and mope now.

'I had become unsociable and wouldn't go out and I used to get upset about the smallest things, like if I broke something around the house.

What's her Fark login?

Lucky, lucky woman.

Metastatic adenocarcinoma is considered among oncologists as the "wildfire" of cancers. Once it takes hold its brutality is quick.

Mom. By the end of the week she got diagnosed with it, she needed a walker. A week or so with a walker and we had to order a wheelchair. Two weeks later and we were having a hospital bed delivered to the house. Diagnosis to death was maybe four months. Same thing, same cancer with her brother a year later.

Going to smile today knowing someone beat that massively cruel beast.

Fark you, Subby. Fark you... and anyone who looks like you.

Now, if only she would start brushing her tooth, she would become smokin' hawt.

Michael Caine looks like crap.

Now we know what a tumor looks like.

Abe Vigoda's Ghost: Turns out it was just half a chicken stuck in her throat from an earlier snack. 

Would have rather seen pics of said tumor,

I clicked because I was interested in the actual story, fully expecting her to be ugly. So there.

What a coughed up tumor may look like.

I'll take my chances on that one.

if i was a tumor i would do anything to get out of that body
