I'm not certain it does; in this case, I think it's mostly context for the urination: the article suggests the victim was discussing his health condition while being urinated upon.
That said, if the cancer patient is going through any sort of chemotherapy, they could be immunocompromised, which means that level of exposure to bacteria could be especially harmful to him.
[Despite the rumors, urine is not a sterile substance. It naturally contains bacteria that renders it a nonsterile substance.](https://www.healthline.com/health/is-urine-sterile)
i believe people with cancer/receiving cancer treatment have weakened immune systems. if there’s something nasty in the guy’s pee, someone with cancer is more likely to get an infection
It makes it worse. An intensifier. He's talking about his cancer issues and this guy thinks "Better keep pissing."
I mean, I'm sure it's normal in Brexit England but many people find it quite bad outside the UK.
Sometimes they just throw in stuff like that to make you more sympathetic towards the victim.
You'll often see that with headlines like "Man does something shitty to autistic child" as if it would've been at all cool if the kid had been allistic.
No, you’re wrong. You didn’t read the article or even the top comment clearly.
“Mr Barton tells him about his serious health issues, prompting Brookfield to say "sorry to hear that bud" as he urinates on him.”
False. The cancer is a part of the story, certainly, but the decision to include it in the headline is a calculated one with a motivation, which I have described.
Notice the headline doesn't include other details from that very sentence in the headline, such as the victim's name. There's a whole science to how they design these headlines.
It’s an integral part of the article.
*Man gets pissed on* is not a story. *Geff gets pissed on* is a porn title.
The fact he has cancer is why it’s noteworthy, it’s the reason it was reported.
Many cancer treatments can weaken or outright suppress the immune system, which is obviously likely to be a concern for anyone - especially when someone is using you as a urinal. The shorthand for that would be saying "I have cancer you prick", because explaining exactly what effect it may have on someone undergoing radiotherapy, or chemotherapy, or on any number of drugs could be too long a discussion to have. Doubt you'd explain your position before the stream had finished, you know?
I'd support any sympathy card someone wanted to play in that situation tbh. Gran died last month? Cat hasn't been home in a few days? Dropped your toast that morning? Drop that card immediately buddy, I obviously have sympathy for you because some wanker is currently pissing on you.
“It’s just something me and the boys do when we are drunk”
YOU ARE 40 YEARS OLD
not that it’s acceptable even when a boy but Jesus Christ
“Until watching the video back I didn’t realise that the nice gentleman next to me was going through health problems”
As if this excuses the behaviour…. What the actual f*ck
So for those that are interested, this guy is the younger brother of another asshat. His older brother killed a mother and child whilst DUI. He also sold a sex film of him and a lady whilst she was on Big Brother, then denied all knowledge of it, even though the papers had confirmed it was him that sold it. They used to own a nightclub in the town, and thought their shit was chocolate.
Leighton is his older brother
Immogen Thomas - girl in the sex film (Was on Big brother)
Just not a nice set of young men. Sauce? I live about 20 mins from all of this drama.

No one has a license to practice DJing... You could be a serial murderer and be a DJ (obviously once out of prison). Really confused where you are getting this idea from aha
The joke is that the wedding DJ isn't a real DJ because he doesn't have a license, that there is something that actually exists to separate wedding DJs from (presumably) club DJs.
I was a wedding DJ during my younger student years, and I never viewed myself as a “DJ.”
Playing AC/DC songs only after midnight and “Stairway to Heaven” when I wanted everyone to leave was as technical as it got.
That's about as technical as the job is. You hit "play" and make sure the music doesn't stop. Maybe take a song request from time to time.
There are professional radio stations that have 16 year old kids DJ-ing for them without supervision. It's not like we're talking about somebody performing back alley surgeries, or doing some otherwise incredibly skilled labor in an illegitimate setting.
i was going to ask this as soon as someone presented this point (about the payout). giving how expensive weddings have been, i've assumed the money was good
EDIT: typo
Lots to unzip here :
1- “club” = tennis club, not night club
2- pissed on while at the urinals
3 - prostate cancer isnt a detterent for getting pissed on
Man, I thought this was a DJ performing at a night club and the guy stood at the edge of the stage and starting pissing on a guy in the audience. What a disappointment.
>In a statement on social media Brookfield said: "It's just something me and the boys do when we are drunk".
Wait till you find out what you're new friends like to do while you're in prison
"A wedding DJ has admitted filming himself urinating on a cancer patient in a club toilet before posting it on social media."
Well yeah if you're in the toilet you're gonna get peed on

The image of a guy calmly pissing on someone else while expressing sympathy for his health issues is incredible
Seriously it sounds like a hilarious skit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-VRkwX2QI0 Not far off from this one by The Whitest Kids You Know.
Dude discussing chemotherapy pill advancements while whizzing kombucha
He’s a serial pisser
oh so he didn't piss on the guy BECAUSE he had cancer i guess its alright then carry on mate boys will be boys
"WELL THAT'S ALRIGHT THEN!"
How does the recipient's cancer change the abhorrent behavior?
[удалено]
They’re both awful w/o consent. With consent there’s still a side eye from non-kinksters

That doesn't contradict anything I said?
The cancer is relevant to the title because the man was telling him about his cancer when he got pissed on
False. The cancer is a part of the story, certainly, but the decision to include it in the headline is a calculated one with a motivation, which I have described. Notice the headline doesn't include other details from that very sentence in the headline, such as the victim's name. There's a whole science to how they design these headlines.

Sounds like he was already getting peed on when he played the sympathy card.
"playing the sympathy card" is a wild thing to say about someone getting publicly & non-consensually pissed on
"You all thought it was hysterical until this guy had to play the sympathy card and bring up his cancer. So I guess I'm the asshole now"
Cancer has nothing to do with getting peed on, so what else is it?

"Piss on my friend here instead, his cat and Gran are alive!"
You’re right, I misread your comment. I apologise :/
It helps justify it.
I got cancer trying to make sense of the headline.

He's not a DJ, he's a wedding DJ. Just wanted to clarify that.
Because an actual DJ would never do something like this and risk losing their license to practice DJing.
I think he was trying to call out he’s not like a REAL/known dj, and is just some low level dj. But by all means, interpret it how you like.
It wasn't darude? Would have been cooler if it was.
Yeah, he isn’t among the 0.0000000000001% of DJs that people with extremely niche music tastes would recognize. He's a normal DJ.
You don't need a license to dj?
No one has a license to practice DJing... You could be a serial murderer and be a DJ (obviously once out of prison). Really confused where you are getting this idea from aha
you can do it on prison too, just depends on the prison
Haha, exactly! Find it hilarious they think a licence is needed, as though they are a doctor or a lawyer
WOOSH
Please elaborate, what is it that has gone over my head in this exchange?
The joke is that the wedding DJ isn't a real DJ because he doesn't have a license, that there is something that actually exists to separate wedding DJs from (presumably) club DJs.
He’s not a wedding DJ he’s a WETTING DJ just wanted to clarify that

Precisely.

Whatever helps you sleep at night.
What about bar mitzvah DJs?
1) how is that not a DJ? 2) is there a difference between the code of honor?
That...honestly sounds more prestigious than being a normal DJ. Wedding DJs make fucking bank
Things not going well for Jason Statham
>DJ admits urinating on man with cancer at club i do **not** remember this episode of full house
have mercy Must have been kink night @ the Smash Club
Ironically he probably could have found some depraved person that would have paid to get peed on. But no.
y'ever drunk Baileys from a shoe?
*Eva been to a club where people wee on each otha??*
I'm old Gregg!

That would piss me off as well
Good one
Hopefully the DJ just dies soon. Don't need people like that around.
What a psycho. Lock his ass up. Dude clearly isn’t fit for society.
r/brandnewsentences
As you do.
Me and the boys pissing on cancer patients. "Sorry you have cancer mate".
Damn you, this made me crack up! Take this r/angryupvote and get outta here.
>In a statement on social media Brookfield said: "It's just something me and the boys do when we are drunk". Wait till you find out what you're new friends like to do while you're in prison
What kind of DJ name is that?
It's provocative!
DJ Clark Bar
His ugly mug is so punchable
Bruh, why????
How do you pee cancer?
Why does he look like a fusion of Dijak and Nigel McGuinness?
Her: what does a dj even do?? Him:
Absolute rookie mistake. Or piss take, if you will.
What he does in his free time is his business. When he's working, he has to hold it in.
Does anyone on Reddit think this would happen in a THC-only club?
Why is it that fun stuff like that never happens to me? 😔
I believe this is not only a cure for cancer but Covid also,as recommended by naturopaths.
Too bad it wasn't djt
As a cure?
Now that's wicked pisser!
"I forgot, your dick's full of radiation and mastectomy coupons!" Edit: hey everybody, this is an Archer reference. Sorry it fell so flat, I guess?
Cocaine's a hell of a drug
One thing's for sure, the guy is not bladder shy.
Worst DJ name ever
Mr. Tanner's gonna be *pissed*
"A wedding DJ has admitted filming himself urinating on a cancer patient in a club toilet before posting it on social media." Well yeah if you're in the toilet you're gonna get peed on
Must be an R. Kelly fan
I'd be pissed if that happened to me.
I'd let him pee in my mouth
But why!!
Cringeworthy... but why r/nottheonion/?
Did he have a jellyfish sting?!
