I'm sorry, I just can't stop laughing at the fact that colon cancer is brown. It's like, "Oh, no, you DID-n't." I mean, people were always going to make jokes: "So breast gets pink, what color does colon get? Brown?! HA HA!" And then he said, "Yes. Do you have a problem with that?"

I know, when I first got colon cancer I joked that the wrist band was brown with little corn kernels on it. The truth seemed even funnier.
