From jrittenhouse's post about some of the delightfully odd things found in the Telegraph obituary columns:

WTFery at its most awesome.

I prefer the Times obituaries (listed with marriages and births under "Hatch, Match and Despatch") to the Torygraph's, but those two are funny.

I will not set a limit of 58 minutes of aimless hanging out before departing with most of my friends, so as to avoid complicating my life. :)

Well,, that has been the juiciest, spiciest, raciest obituary it has ever been my pleasure to read. :)
