funeral

Yes, you done messed up big time with this one. As far as "Am I The Asshole?" threads go, this one was just glaringly obvious. You're going to bail on your boyfriend in arguably one of the toughest times of his life for a vacation with the family; and then have the audacity to ask whether or not you're an asshole for doing so? You are quite lost. Quite lost, indeed.

That being said, if you're looking for some more juicy "Am I The Asshole" drama we recommend you check out a recent post about a bald bridesmaid asking the internet if she was a jerk for not wearing a wig to a particularly unruly bridezilla's wedding.

He made a grave mistake!

Are you ready to laugh until you cry? This funeral fail started out innocent enough, with a "you got this" and descended quickly into an absolute mess. This TIFU story is one of the most cringeworthy stories we've encountered, and I really feel sorry for the guy. At least he won't make that mistake again. 

Tim sounds like one mean hard living, dried out old cowboy. And you just know all that "telling it how it is" meant Tim was someone you would not want to rub the wrong way. 

Yeah so I'm gonna need the pricing on this ASAP! 

If you talk about an ad, it was a GOOD ad. Right? So, maybe confused crematorium guy is actually winning, not failing, after all. 

Sometimes a well-timed inappropriate thing said at a funeral can actually improve the mood and make the experience more meaningful. Other times it's family members almost coming to blows over who gets their grandpa's estate. Pretty wide swing of the pendulum, for sure. For crazy wedding stories, check this out.

I'd imagine this would be the least odd thing to happen at Neil Gaiman's funeral.

If he asks you to wear a black dress, you'd best clarify what that entails. From there, I'm honestly at a loss for words over how that shituation got any worse. Clearly this poor guy was so blinded by grief, he failed to connect the dots on just how ridiculous his +1 scenario was. 

So apparently if you don't keep an urn sealed well enough, the human remains inside turn into a formidable brick of your loved one. Luckily, we live in 2018 so you can go to the internet for answers. And especially luckily, people have more to offer than just a simple solution. They also have terrifically dark one-liners.

Who knew a story about having to poop at your friend's funeral could be this touching?

When you have a good idea, you have a good idea. This was not a good idea.

Comedian, Mitch Feltscheer was the (un)lucky witness to a historically terrible botched attempt at proper ash-scattering, when he attended his grandmother's funeral. As most talented comedians will do, Feltscheer has taken to Twitter to storytell the sh*t out of the morbidly hilarious occurrence. After all, humor's one hell of a tonic for the otherwise stomach-turning, dark curveballs life tosses our way. 

The fact that professionals like this actually exist in the world fills me with an immense amount of joy. Picturing this dude taking the leap of faith into a damn grave is nothing short of hysterical. Can you imagine? And the awkwardness, chaos that must inevitably follow? Like you can't really walk that one off, and I'm assuming the process that goes into getting him out of the grave is profoundly cringeworthy as well. 

After being left in the Zimbabwe wilderness and left for dead, the strangest thing happened to this guy when he walked into his own funeral. That's no metaphor. I can't imagine a more absurd scenario. I don't think that guy will be picking up any more hitchhikers.
