"People constantly tell cancer survivors that they are playing for others' sympathy by simply mentioning that they survived cancer in an effort to intimidate them from mentioning it at all, another bullying tactic."

They do? Gosh, did you get cancer of the Hypocriticus? Ever thought of being a politician?

In point of fact I thought it was *you* who was repeatedly leaning on your delicate victim status (being lucky enough to survive the disease yourself) in an attempt to deflect criticism from your *lyrics*, whilst simultaneously complaining about "irony failure" in other people who found your *lyrics* both un-funny and unpleasant.

You're not some little 'Child of Courage' to be wheeled out on at prime time TV for a charity marathon Carol: you didn't die of a disease you wish upon others - who just as you wish, do of course die from it. Good for you.

Bleat about it all you like, but do not expect appreciation of your vitriolic abuse (aka funny song), of others who unfortunately for them, do not and will not experience your good fortune.
