Worst Present Ever! {What Not To Give Someone}

I started the following exchange on my FaceBook account and marveled at how creative my friends truly can be. Enjoy the obvious humor of it all. These ideas really kept me laughing.


SunTiger Xo Hey. Wanna start a silly trend? Think of THREE HORRIBLE GIFTS to send someone . . . examples follow: * Machete-toting cannibal {Given to a peace-loving Mennonite family}

* Stack of French Ticklers {Given to elderly women living in a nunnery}

* Water ski lessons {for a Hydrophobe/individual afraid of water}

That was a fun game. Everyone got very creative.

Well, I once got a baby booster, for a martial arts teacher, when she was having a baby, so the kid could sit up and watch classes. I didn't notice the other side said Nursing Pillow.

A Beer Bash, for the local AA?

Has Patch Adams ever done a clown show, at a funeral?

Panademona ~ I was very pleasantly surprised when folks were willing to participate (being creative can take WORK) LOL.

Arawn ~ Say ... ?What? {Patch Adams cracked jokes at the dying's bedside; if that's what you're getting at.}

The problem with Terminal Illness, is that it's the number one topic of non-conversation. Some fellow mentioned, that he had metastatic bladder cancer, and I realised he was concerned for its ability to stop a conversation, so I assured him my father died of the same thing, rather cheerfully. The Dying are one problem, though, of loneliness, and the Saxons considered humor, at your own death, to be an honorable challenge, but how do you make a funeral fun?
The funeral is not for the living, but is a last congregation to celebrate a challenged connection, and it's at a seeming, that nothing more can be done. How can we help this congregation to transcend the connections of respiration, and allow the celebritee to walk amongst the respiratory again, as fellow or as spirit?

Actually, if someone requested, in a living will, Patch might just do comedy at such a celebration.

Arawn? I'm worried about you. You no longer make any sense.

Arawn Graalrd said...

Sense? Where's your Sense of Adventure? Where's your sense of Humor? Where's your sense of Mystery?
Death embraces our years, and we breath between kisses. We can hope, that those years are worth living for, but the fear that they will end often prevents us beginning.
I've learned, this evening, that my brother mark is in Highline Hospital, in Burien, with both a stroke and a tumor. Both operable, but we hope it's a brain tumor, rather than a metastasis.
Have you ever massaged a Death Wish?

You mean we're supposed to hold our breath while we kiss? {I kiss like I"m giving someone CPR} LOL
