My uncle just dies of cancer, and I just made it up in time to see him 2 weeks ago. He looked that bad when I saw him. I hope Jobs, has more than my uncle did.

As usual, GA decides to add in his bile stemming from his pathetic self-pitying.

And damn, sorry for Jobs. He did a lot in his life though, which is certainly a good thing.

The other thread is about Apple.

This is about Steve Jobs the person.

The subject of the sentence, "Steve Jobs resigns as Apple CEO," is 'Steve Jobs', not 'Apple'. As he resigned due to heath reasons, his continuing health issues fall into that line and therefore fall perfectly into that thread.

"Steve Jobs resigns (due to cancer)."
"Oh, now he's thinner (due to cancer)."
"*UPDATE* Now dead (due to cancer)."

The Apple forum didn't think it necessary to start a new thread to post the exact same photo you did -- they posted it in the resignation thread.

He's going to freak the fuck out when he sees how many buttons the life support machine has.

Once it gets to this point looking like he does there is no life support, only the inevitable. Make sure to donate to hospice, my mom was a volunteer and what they do is incredible.

But points for the funny.

Meh, GA's joke was fine.

I guess I don't have a sense of humor, forgive me if I find nothing amusing about another human being stricken with a painful disease having an ironic encounter with a life support machine.

Statistics show that least of a third of the people viewing this thread will die of Cancer, thus will likely experience a similar experience to what Jobs is going through now. Remember, he was a young guy just like you once. Your time will come.

Oh give me a break, we joke about death and suffering here all the time. Get the stick out of your ass.

I don't think the photos are fake. I heard that he's looked like this for a while now (couple months, maybe).

He's too young to be in this condition, but the form of cancer he has is terribly aggressive.

Something in the photo does not look natural. Look on the left of his shorts, or whatever he's wearing. Note the perfectly straight line of the black clothing. Also, looks as though his lower legs were edited as well to make them appear skinnier than they actually are.

That's gotta be brutal. Cancer should be cured.

Wow, sad to see him in such a state. Wish him and his family all the best. Thanks for the iMac, iPod, and iPhone Steve.
