It is a bit silly to say that, but whatever man, why even bother arguing that in the case of someone having cancer. If someone said the same in response to something fairly meaningless sure... Although calling it out would still seem as silly as saying it, who cares.

I'm pretty sure science says it isn't 100% useless. Even a tiny chance is good enough when dealing with deadly shit like any form of cancer.

I'd like to think being shown compassion is helpful, yeah.
I never quite got the whole group of dudes out on the net ready to decry simple gestures of support.

Like fuck showing people you care right?

Also hot shower > cold showers.

Everybody is entitled to an opinion whether you agree with them or not.

Unless they are saying something on the level of Kill All the Jews!, you don't have to waste 20 pages on it and take sides like neogaf does. People say things similar to what she is saying on GAF all the time. It doesn't devolve into 20 page threads though unless its somebody "famous". And I use that term ever so lightly.

It reminds me of how any Phil Spencer threads turns into a fanboy war despite however benign the comment is.
