What epitaph dya want?

LadyJ

Hey all!

Was just thinking about epitaphs! Charmingly morbid of me I realise :rolleyes:
Anyway,what would y'all like written on your tombstones?

I reckon I might go with an arrow pointing skywards and beside it "I'm with stupid"....

If I died tomorrow;

the only thing worse then a life taken too soon, is a life not taken!

See you soon.......Real soon.

That'd freak everyone out right.

"At last..."

kasintahan

"R.M.A."

But they'll never find my body so I guess it's a bit redundant...

LadyJ

"She came,she saw,she got kinda bored and swallowed some thumb tacks..."

qz

"You'll have to kill the head vampire!"

Raphael

"Here lies the body of Raphael. If not, please notify the undertaker at once"

"He looked up the shaft to see if the lift was coming. It was"

"Braaaains!"

bringitdown

"He sure liked playing with that gun"

Crucifix

"If you read this you suck"
Striking from beyond the grave.

Raphael

"I'm not dead!"

Billy Conollys one is classic, he wants, in very small writing at the bottom of the stone "You're standing on my bollocks"

Oh, I saw this one in Tombstone, USA "He was right, we was wrong, we strung him up, and now he's gone"

sinjin_smythe

if you can read this your standing on my ass

lampsie

"I'm standing behind you"

and

"It didnt look THAT pointy"

Ms Bitch

arbeitsscheuer

"I guess it's too late to tell you... YOU ALL SUCK BALLS
Oh no, I can do that with this epitaph!"

But seriously, I'd like:

"Amor Vincit Omnia... except death"

Agent Smith

"dead girls dont say no...."

Le Rack

Sort of epithath - I used to want to have an Oak tree growing from my grave, so that the tree could become my legacy...sort of in the Wuthering Heights stile...then I realised that I would have to be cremated to do that...

To be honest, I would love that my gravestone to say that I was a loving daughter and good sister and if I live long enough a loving wife and mother (am neither yet) (sorry for being boaring here)...

My daddy and I used to look around gravestones when I was a little girl and there was one gravestone that used to get us about a father that died of a broken heart 6 months after his 12 year old daughter died...it still gets to me.

I actually wanted this for a few years...that is what I get for hanging around graveyards with my daddy when I was a kid, no wonder my knickname was Morticia

Funny last liner would be from Monty Python:
"pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
'cause there's bugger-all down here on earth!"

Something like the infamous:

connection reset by peer

/edit

Tho what would be pretty nifty would be a recording of myself saying something or order to whomeever may be missing me whilst I'm busy being dead. To be activated by pressing a button or sommat. Not motion activated - no point the rabbits and birds ****ting on my grave to be scared off.

why do owlpairs do that.

Bring young children to grave yards to read the headstones.

Your five years old and full of beans and naievity...and its like...here look at all the DEAD PEOPLE.

I think my epitaph would be a map to all the other gravestones that people are looking for. Cos its a bollix to find my uncles grave in Mount Argus.

Helpful to the end me.

"Here lies Healio, All operators are still busy."

None, I'd rather be cremated.

"Do Not Disturb"

or

"Do not stand by my grave and weep,
I am not here, I do not sleep"

BlitzKrieg

"Woah"


or

"Atari Jaguar"

or

"I cam, i saw, i posed for the photo"

tovalee

i saw one once that really stuck with me , it was a husband and wife, 2 rings connected and below it on one side "I love you most" and on the other side " I Love you most too" . seemed like a sort of in joke between the 2 of them and i found it very poignant .

stagolee

or as an alternative to being buried i might get someone to sing this while they chuck me off a boat

"Blues all on the ocean, blues all in the air;
Can't stay here no longer, I have no steamship fare.
When my earthly trials are over, cast my body out to sea;
Save on the undertakers bills-- let the mermaids flirt with me!"

and the rest of the song of course

Ro: maaan!

Ro: maaan! was kicked by God

Seen this one on a gravestone once and thought I'd like it on mine. The gravestone it was on said it was by unknown:

Remember man as you pass by
as you are now
so once was I
as I am now
so you will be
prepare for death
and follow me.

hmmmm well I liked it anyway

"The person you are mourning is using eircom's prayer waiting, and knows that your heart is hurting. Please hold while we try to connect you."[/eircom guy]
I hate eircom guy! The only consolation I have in the face of his mock-sympathetic tone is the knowledge that anyone who tries to call him must immediately hang up every time he answers his home phone. Heh.

There's a monks buriel room in Rome. The room has the monks actual skeletons dangling from the ceiling and all their skulls stacked up and a sign saying "What you are now we once were."
