Pancreatic cancer has a weird PSA

Chris Spags Founder and Editor

PSAs are pretty difficult to make. You want them to be memorable but not to deviate too far from the message. This PSA with “pancreatic cancer” having a menacing monologue in the back of a dude’s car might not quite hit the right notes.

I think the intention of this clip is to get me to hate pancreatic cancer but, in reality, I really like pancreatic cancer a lot. He’s a masterful villain and I bet if we had some sort of prequel, he’d have a really logical backstory that made him turn to a life of crime. Like, I don’t know, his family was brutally murdered by a guy in a giant pancreas costume so he had to extract revenge in order to bring peace to his family and the unceasing pain that is his life.

Unrelated, but the all-time best PSA of course comes from Canada. Update: Holy crap I just realized I posted the same video twice for an entire day. Fuck me. Correct video is up now.

You may not agree with his methods, but I bet this young lady learned a lot about waitressing on this day.

[thanks to Chris (great name) for the pancreatic cancer tip]
