A promise is a promise

Today, my mom went to my dad's funeral as the Grim Reaper. Apparently, because they were both massive Terry Pratchett fans, they'd agreed whoever outlived the other had to go to the funeral as Death. No one else found it funny and more than a few swore to never speak to her again. FML

That’s kind of awesome that they did this. Definitely bonus points for sticking to it in tragedy. I want my family to have a wake and party for me instead of a dreary funeral, but doubt they’ll have the courage to do it. I guess the only part that sucks is the lack of sense of humor of everyone else.

Hahaha!! Your mother is awesome and I am sure your dad had a huge smile on the other side. Sometimes people just need to chill the **** out.

Wow, if that's an actual agreement that's awesome, but definitely should have done a smaller funeral and or give people a heads up....

Even those with a sense of humor might not bring it to a funeral.

I would think that was hilarious lol!

Without warning, it seems tasteless. Just a notice that Mom will be dressed according to your Dad's wishes would have avoided the problem. Not everyone could be in The Barenaked Ladies.

Good for her. She was doing something that she and your father had agreed on.

that's actually awesome! I guess nobody else in the family has a sense of humor. good on your mom for following through on that agreement.

That's a massive thumbs up and respect from me! And I think it witnesses about the love and respect that obviously existed between your parents!

I absolutely love what your mother done. it would have made me smile. I've already told several people that I want as many people dressed in costume for my funeral.
