It takes a lot of BALLS to lansdcape in a public cemetery. The complete lack of respect for others in doing so bugs the living s*** out of me.
Still, this one isn't nearly as tacky as most.
The funny part is -- if you go out to the cemetery after dark -- these lights do nothing to light up the grave!
I went out last week to check on some because I was curious what it looked like. I went to rural cemetery where there would be no other light pollution and the lights placed on either side of a knee-high and maybe three foot wide stone didn't give off enough light to even read the name when you are standing right in front of it!
It's my plot, and I'll build a patio if I want to! Perhaps these folks have been following the goings-on at Burr Oak cemetary in Alsip, I'LL (I'll let you guys google it) and didn't want to be grave dumped or doubled or worse!
What's with all the negativity?! It's the perfect setup for unfolding your lounger, bustin' out the Hawaiian Tropic and catchin' some rays. What better way to commune with your dearly departed?
I've seen this a lot. People do it (around here) because they don't feel the cemetery is being maintained/mowed properly. They do this so that their loved one's grave will never be overgrown with weeds.
Tomb wrecks are real tombstones that make us laugh. No photoshop work is done here (except to cover the names of the victims). We know death can be a touchy subject, and no disrespect is intended. We view this as the lighter side of the other side. While we welcome your photo submissions, we absolutely do not condone trespassing or damaging grave markers. Don't wreck a potential wreck! :o)
This is for garden gnome parties.

I made a comment similar to someone about a grave in our area; he said, "Naw, they'll just crawl out the side."
ReplyDeleteMaybe the deceased really likes hopscotch or grill outs on the patio?
