At age 42, Stefansson, known most notably for playing Robbie Rotten in Lazy Town, notified the Icelandic National Broadcasting Service, that no longer has liver cancer after going through two surgeries.

<sarcasm mode="on">What are you talking about, 'team'? It is one guy, and he never sleeps or eats, only uploads high quality video game rips</sarcasm>

Anyway, the LazyTown memes were bleh, I don't see why so many people like them. It's only really that grandayy guy and a few others who still carry on this dead 'trend'. And this is coming from a meme hipster who usually only likes memes once there dead...

I forgot to mention in my last post, that I'm still happy for him to have survived cancer. I wasn't being mean-hearted or anything, just commenting on the memes themselves.

Cancer is hell no matter who you are. Congrats to him. I hope we find a way to make cancer a thing of the past.

I have read a few sci fi books that mention a few characters getting cancer at one point or another and being treated rather painlessly. Its nice to think that even though the books are fiction, someday we might think about cancer as a minor issue that plagued the 21st century.

If anyone cares, I know one book was the Night's Dawn Trilogy by Peter F. Hamilton, and I think the other was maybe Halo: Evolutions?

Nice optimism you have there bortz, and yeah I hope cancer can be treated more easily and happen much less in the future. :)
Maybe one day we will find a way, even if it takes us many years.
