This horrific ending is much more logical than any King novel.

OK, I have seen 5 "IT" references in the last hour. Guess it's time to read it again!

Them burial vaults wouldn't tend to float up so easily, if they filled them with toxic waste to lower the buoyancy.

/Profit over the death and burial of your loved ones.

Oh yeah I always hear about bodies coming out of the ground when it floods it's always a creepy and unsettling...

...no caskets were visible.

Oh, all right then. Guess that was uh...well, how about this!

Did you know you cannot bury a casket in concrete? Did you know it will float to the top, expunged by the mixture of rock and water as it hardens?

It's hard to find the precise story without some digging but Army Specialist Richard Leroy McKinley was victim of a severe nuclear accident and had to be buried in lead and concrete for the safety of the public and any family members who might tend to his gravesite in Arlington National Cemetary. Their first attempt to inter him in a block of concrete failed when the casket floated to the surface as the concrete began to dry. So they built a metal vault and buried that, filling it with concrete and the casket buried inside with a layer of concrete over the top. The metal vault contained the casket so it could not float out.

Some parts of Specialist McKinley and the two individuals who died with him were so irradiated they had to be buried as radioactive waste separate from their bodies.

I backed my car into a cop car the other day. Well he just drove off, sometimes life's ok.

That would have to be the poor bastards from SL-1 in Idaho Falls.

At least the visiting family could find them easier in the winter. They'd be the only 3 self defrosting graves.

I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say?
Well you just laughed it off, it was all OK.

And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on OK.
And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on anyway.

Well, a fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam.
It was worth it just to learn some sleight of hand.
Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands.
Good news will work its way to all them plans.
We both got fired on exactly the same day.
Well we'll float on, good news is on the way.

It rubs the lotion on its sack and pulls its balls out of the crack.

Sorry, revisited that thread the other day to show a friend and that line is stuck in my head.

I was actually happy it rained last night. Warmed things up a bit. Gonna be another cold one tonight.

plow these mutherfarkers up! Plow them up into the lakes and streams of America! We need that phosphorus for farming! Hey, if we want to recycle, lets get serious!

That book was odd. I read it when I was 13, and was aroused yet stumped why all the kids banged Bevvy in the tunnel at the end. Also what was up with the turtle and chud.

WTF is up with these stars next to our handles? How long has Fark been doing this?

Headline gave me the creeps!
Thread made it worse!

Gonna have to dig that out and read it again...

Man, I rarely ever use gay in the insult sense but the stars next to our handles look gay. Were people too lazy to open a profile and click favorite or ignore?

My first thought was actually Simpson's Halloween special... until I finished reading the whole thing.

Bart/Lisa: "Dad dad, we did something horrible!"
Homer: "Did you wreck the car?"
Kids: "No..."
Homer: "Did you raise the dead?"
Kids: "Yes!"
Homer: "But the car's ok?"



/Flanders was a zombie??

I dunno about bannination but I hope the mods see the folly in this one at some point and put a bullet in her like FarkTV.

/Also "It's not news, It's Fark.com" was way better than "we dont make news we mock it"

Personally, I think that we should bury folks sitting upright on jet skis. That way, when we get one of these really wet months, we can all go to the cemeteries with our video cameras and wait for the dearly departed to start popping up out of the ground.

/but that's just me... I guess

When I die I don't want any of this $10k casket/$5k vault nonsense. Pine box and a big freakin' pile of rocks will do just fine. Either that or a massive funeral pyre, but I get the feeling by the time I die they'll have outlawed burning wood on purpose... (which only bothers me if I can't have a campfire when camping really, but still).

Damn fancy pants web site trying to make things easier on its users! Who the hell do they think they are???

Seriously, you need to find something else to complain about. Is the maid's vacuuming drowning out the television as well?
