A nice thought...

Neighbor in my village died yesterday. The deceased man was well liked and well known in the village through his involvement in different things in the village. I was talking to another neighbor earlier and I said to him that its sad about 'Bill'. He replied, "No more than any other man he will be fcuked into a hole tomorrow and forgotten about by the weekend".

A great outlook to have on life!!

Petition to have Bill cremated just to spite that miserable feck of a neighbour.

Not living uptight.

But if dying is the last thing you'll ever do, is life therefore not for dying?

I gotta stop mixing skittles with coffee.

No he's not, hes being miserable.

I'm not saying ignore death, or anything like that, but the people who matter most never fully leave you when they pass on, and I mean this in a non religious fashion.

They live on in your memories, in your actions, and in your essence.

Saying they're forgotten by the weekend is just being bitter.

OFC he'll never be forgotten about by his family and very close friends like anyone, but to the neighbour he will be forgotten about pretty sharply, not unless they were great buds, which in this case it seems they weren't

He's right. Once you're in the ground there's no more word about you.


The graveyard is full of people that couldn't be done without.

Sad but a bit of truth in it except he be remembered for longer by family and friends.

There are people dying now that never died before:D

The prospect of death, the ultimate non-existence, boggles the mind and our conscience makes cowards of us all.

While it is nice to have the cultural habit of remembering the dead, I think your neighbour's response is an understandable one. Some people don't want to face up the idea of death, and so treat it flippantly. A psychological defence, I suppose, against the impotence and confusion we all feel when a person well-known to us or close to us is lost.

Ah now - if you even leave the country these days you're soon forgotten about, unless you have the facebook...

Give it a week and a half.

Bill was obviously banging your neighbour's wife and there's a good chance he had something to with Bill's demise in fact. Contact the police would be my advice.

Says more about him that he feels he won't be missed. Miserable tosser.
