We received a sympathy card today.

[evlbstrd]

Apparently, I'm dead.
Who knew?

[Skittles]

1. ?

it specifically mentioned you? :o

[evlbstrd]

3. By name.

They thought I was a nice guy, though.

[KitchenWitch]

2. It was rumored a number of years ago that I was dead

I ran into one of my old friends at the Minnesota State Fair, and his jaw dropped, and he said, "Man, I had heard you passed away."

That was weird.

[evlbstrd]

4. It wasn't true, was it?

I mean, I feel OK...

[KitchenWitch]

12. It was not true!

I have not been fitted with my toe tag yet.

[evlbstrd]

13. Feeling better, then?

That's good to know.

[KitchenWitch]

18. Oh yeah.

I can see how the rumor about me got started, since I did have cancer. I am a 20 year cancer survivor!

:)

[evlbstrd]

26. That's fantastic!

Success is the best revenge.

[mainegreen]

5. So what's it like on the other side?

Is it filled with virgins maidens? Or is it more like the DMV?

[evlbstrd]

6. Hmmm.

It looks uncannily like my house. So, no virgin maidens. The good news is there's beer!

[GOPisEvil]

7. You're not dead. You're just resting your eyes.

Sheesh. Some people.

[evlbstrd]

9. Oh.

Hey, I was watching that!

[graywarrior]

8. Maybe they're sorry you're alive.

I keed.

:hide:

[evlbstrd]

10. I could understand that.

But it specifically mentions "loss." Maybe they think I just wandered off.

[graywarrior]

11. It was your cat....hinting.

I'd keep an eye at the top of the stairs.

[evlbstrd]

15. Wow.

He can write! I'll be rich!
And I'm sleeping on the couch for a while.

[graywarrior]

31. He's been posting on Craigslist.

I think he hates you.

[evlbstrd]

33. I need to change my password.

I thought he was just walking around on my stuff.

[graywarrior]

37. Pffft. He walks like the fog.

He's got it in for you. I just know it. Purrrrrrr.

[evlbstrd]

38. Crap.

I wish I was ...
oh, wait.

[graywarrior]

44. An Oscar Meyer Weiner?

[evlbstrd]

46. I may already be a weiner!

[graywarrior]

48. bwaahahahahahaha hahaha hahaha haha

*snort* *hic*
:rofl:

[Fleshdancer]

14. My condolences to your family

would you prefer flowers or should I donate to a charity in your memory?

Seriously though, how creepy that must be for you!

[evlbstrd]

19. Cash gifts are acceptable.

Maybe just a little creepy. But I've always wanted to experience my own wake. That's gonna be a good party.

[madinmaryland]

16. When did you die?

:shrug:

[evlbstrd]

20. It didn't say.

I'd better look at the obits. I probably could have skipped work today.

[Guava Jelly]

17. Shit!

I'll come to your funeral.
What a shitty way to meet.

[evlbstrd]

22. You'd better hurry.

Before I drink all the beer.

I hope I look good. Not all waxy and creepy.

[Guava Jelly]

28. Dude we can totally Ice down the coffin and fill it with Boulevard Beer

Irish Ale is out now :7

[evlbstrd]

32. Great idea!

I had some Irish Ale just last week. Let's hope that's not what killed me.

[Fleshdancer]

23. ROFL!

:rofl:

[greatauntoftriplets]

21. You should respond to that person a la Mark Twain....

Rumors of my death are greatly exaggerated.

Happy to hear that you are all right, but that must have been one damned thing to read.

[evlbstrd]

24. It does rock you back a bit.

Then the jokes start coming.

[greatauntoftriplets]

27. The beer helps, I am certain...

:beer:

[evlbstrd]

35. It ain't hurtin'!

edit:
Or leaking out anywhere, so, I'll assume I wasn't shot.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

25. My dear evlbstrd!

Wow, that is weird!

Glad to hear that the announcement is false, though..... :hug:

[evlbstrd]

30. As far as I can tell, it is.

But it's still early.

[redwitch]

29. Who the hell sent it?

I always confirm that someone is dead before I send the card, ya know? Just in case they're still alive and all.

[evlbstrd]

34. A literacy group.

My ex did some work with them some time ago.
Maybe I should write back:

Thank you all for the kind words and thoughts.
(my name)

[redwitch]

41. Oh yes indeedy, a response is a must!

Have some fun with it!

[evlbstrd]

42. I will.

And then if I could see the looks on their faces ...

[u4ic]

36. Do you tend to be late

for other important ocassions? :shrug:

[evlbstrd]

39. Not in general.

Looks like I'm late now.

[u4ic]

40. Not a bad thing, though!

:thumbsup:

[evlbstrd]

43. New questions arise.

What if the state sends my death certificate? There's no estate to speak of. I'd have no bills!

[u4ic]

49. Dead is the new 40!

:thumbsup:

[BuelahWitch]

45. You need to quit hanging out with Mabus

Those Anti-Christs can be killers!

[evlbstrd]

47. You can say that again.

I think now I have some leverage.
