Ok...so the ads that pop up on Facebook can be very intersting...for instance the one for "Funeral One - the Twelve Days of Christmas".
Which makes me wonder what exactly those twelve days could be...
On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me: a coffin.
Its amazing who will capitalize on any upcoming holiday. Seriously, a funeral service that is selling the twelve days of christmas idea. There was an opportunity for funeral video/streaming but it was sold out. How dissappointing. That was number two on my Santa List.
Now, death is a natural part of life, however, selling it as a christmas "deal" is unnatural. What is day two? Cremation urn? And how about a grave plot for day three. AT a 25% discount this could beat the snot out of the XBox the kids were gonna get. Just sayin'.
And why stop at Christmas. A nice valentine's hearse ride might be just the ticket after a romantic dinner. Why not? Its basically a limo with room to lie down for a nice apres meal nap.
Perhaps for my birthday my husband will surprise me with a beautiful diamond made from the cremains of a loved one. My dad showed me the article in the paper about how people can become a diamond after they die by being cremated and having some process done to the ashes left. He was going to leave each of his daughters a diamond. Now I say daddy is gonna have to gain a lot of weight to give me the rock I would want. Eat, daddy, eat!!!
Which brings me back to my original thought, why 12 days of christmas funeral one? We all would appreciate the discount. Its a nice gesture, but how bout a nice fruitcake instead? I think the one that thought up the idea would fit the bill!
my daughter just mentioned an autopsy--- good choice for a gift Courtney!!!
