The Way We Help Kids WIth Cancer

By glorifying their terminal disease with video games!!

That's right, "Re-Mission is a third-person shooter that lets users fight cancer as a perky nanobot named Roxxi. Each of the game's 20 missions drops the player into the body of a patient afflicted with a specific form of cancer, ranging from common diseases like Hodgkins to rarities like Ewing's sarcoma. Featuring weapons like the Chemo Blaster, the Radiation Gun, and the Antibiotic Rocket, the game encourages users to zap malignant cells while enlisting the aid of helpful characters like Dendritic cells, T-cells and Platelets."

This is a new trend in teaching our ever-increasing ADD kids about themselves and anything that parents and doctors want to avoid telling them. It's better to plop you kids and let a video game tell them that they're dying on the inside than have to think of a way to say "well, you're fucked. And this comb isn't gonna do you no good".

Soon to be released: "HI-VICTORY!" A young boy named Vic hops in his Auto named "Immune" and fights the evil with his "Protein Blaster", only to find out that it doesn't work and the virus can only be held in place to give the person a couple of more years to live in dirt-eating poverty in Uganda.
