man we’ve been doing funerals all wrong over here

My friends, weeping at my funeral as they shove 5s and 10s between the biggest titties they’ve ever seen: it’s what he would’ve wanted

Okay, but this is actually a thing and it’s really sad?

People in China are starting to live so long they no longer have any friends and very few family members who know or care who they are. Except that in China, the number of mourners at your funeral is culturally linked to your status and honor and it’s culturally heartbreaking to have someone live a long, noble life and have less than five people at their funeral.

So they hire strippers.

They throw a giant ass party and throw the doors open and get all the people in that they can so these old folks who stuck around so long and probably did great things for the world, or the family, or even just existed in the way only they could for so long actually get the send off they deserve. 

Culturally, it’s less embarrassing to have have strippers at your funeral than to have no one show up. At least everyone there is having a good time and thankful you existed, even if they only knew you enough to know that you had strippers at your funeral.
