The thing with graves is that they’re usually quite, well, grave. These graves are the opposite. In fact, they should be called not graves but funnies!

Some people want to be remembered for their humor. So naturally, when they died, they left a joke on their grave.

The 20 people ahead wouldn’t let a small issue like death stop them from making everyone laugh!

1. Many a wife?

Just how many wives are we talking about? Because weddings are expensive. It’s easy to guess what he spent all the money on, apart from booze of course.

2. At least we don’t have to wait long to find out

In the grand scheme of things, I mean. Is that supposed to be a mirror? If so, that’s unique.

3. Clearly, Hackett hates a racket

So just how loud is that graveyard exactly? There’s nothing like a short, sweet message. So let her rest in peace for once!

4. So true

You know what was fun? Being alive! When is that coming back?

5. She had to share them with the world

This is a pretty selfless thing to do. Just don’t tell your kids where you got the recipe from. They’ll have terrible nightmares.

6. A hairbrained scheme for Harband

Remember that there are two sides to every story. What does the wife’s tombstone say? Also, the death date isn’t given, but he lived for 93 years!

7. Look closer, and you’ll see it

Read the first letter of each line only. So was that intentional? It would be a pretty huge coincidence.

8. This is death plagiarism!

The British/Irish comedian Spike Milligan had almost this exact phrase on his gravestone in the Irish language. The big difference is that people translate the last word on Milligan’s grave to “ill” instead of sick. Someone stole the joke!

9. So true

Also, as that says St. Elmo cemetery, that means there’s a St. Elmo? What is he the patron saint of? Children’s TV?

10. Kindly step back

Do you think that they liked Texas? If you look at the grave closely, there’s a clue. It’s the huge map of Texas.

11. But I can’t. Not in a world without Butt!

That’s the kind of name you have to laugh at and embrace, if you have it. This is a place for no ifs, just Butts! If you think about it, it’s kind of sad that eventually, all people will know about this person is that they were a Butt.

12. Such as World War 2

See, she was born during World War 2! And if you think that the war may have started after she was born, look it up. Despite what some say, the war began before 1941. At least most sane people agree that the war did happen. Edith knew!

13. Is there such a thing as too many?

Sure, when there are cats spilling out of every room, that can seem like a lot. But in terms of all the cats in the world, that’s like barely any! That’s called having perspective.

14. Newsflash

This is why you should bury people with torches. You know what else is dark? Your sense of humor!

15. He played Bugs Bunny and so many others

Has there ever been a more appropriate inscription? So sad. At least he had a full life and made people happy!

16. Looks like we all have something to look forward to

Murphy assures us. But how long does it take to get used to it? Tell us more next time, Murphy!

17. Someone died on the wrong side of bed that morning

Maybe that’s what he said when asked if he wanted a final message. He thought a final message was dumb. Well, at least it captures his personality.

18. Relaxin’ on Jackson

Relaxin’ and Jackson kind of rhyme but not entirely. That is some nice marble, though. This picture belongs on my death plan Pinterest.

19. This probably wasn’t meant to be funny

He just wanted to boast. That’s pretty impressive. Also, yes, this isn’t a gravestone. But it’s too good to not include!

20. But what do you preheat the oven to?

Maybe you have to find out more about her life before that secret is revealed. That’s a good way to ensure that people will learn about you. Just leave out a key part of a great recipe!
