M is for Moriologist

04/15/2011

MORIOLOGIST is a hired mourner.

Yes you may not be able to buy love but you can pay a MORIOLOGIST to wail more than the family members can. They will even crawl on the floor while they are wailing!

This may sound weird but how does it differ from the paid ‘fans’ who will applaud the paying performer? Yay!

While here, why don’t we check the stylish coffins and guess what the deceased love?

Hello!

Too bag!

Bye! Vroom!


And what about the epitaph?

Mine could be:

Here lies bendedspoon
Flesh will rot, funny bones will not!

or

Here lies bendedspoon
Finally she’s deep!

or

In memory of bendedspoon
She’s down to earth.

How about you? Seriously, while you can.

    Oh, my, ‘spoon’…are they really coffins? Or is that just a joke? I can’t imagine showing up at a funeral parlor and seeing the deceased in a huge duffle bag! lol Thanks for the “M” word today. 🙂

      Jay those fancy coffins are for real! It’s the way of death of the rich in Ghana Africa! And I guess if one is hot the person got to lie in chili casket 🙂

    An interesting take on “rent-a-crowd”.


  8. Okay, I’ve got one that comes from something my son said once:

    If you’re looking for Linda
    She’s not here
    You’ll find her at the throne of Jesus
    With her friends so dear

    And I don’t want any paid mourners. I want people to be happy that I’ve finally gone home. 🙂 Peace, Linda


  9. Here lies Judy
    Finally! The rest of us can get in the last word


  10. An unpaid moriologist ..well guess she’s won’t be that if she is unpaid..said that at my funeral she will get up and say, “Chris said she wanted to be buied face down so the whole world can kiss her *ss! Mine could be:
    Here lies Bridges finally out of the burn! or if I had the second package…The bag is in the bag!
    Chris
