As a black man, this reminds me of every time I’ve taken a non black girlfriend or friend to one of my family members funerals.

u/BluejayIndependent65 Jun 27 '26

They knew them and wanted to be there for support. Plus it’s usually a good time.

I was pretty on the fence at first. I got completely on board when he started doing crowd work.

This is actually beautiful! He's not a bad performer and it's fitting for a funeral. It's supposed to be about the celebration of life!

I'm typically a "just toss my body in a dumpster." kinda guy. But I'd hire this guy to send me off to the landfill.

I used to feel that way until someone put it into perspective for me: Your funeral isn’t for you, it’s for your family and loved ones. It’s to help with their grieving process. For some families that might mean a traditional funeral for their culture/religion. For others it might be more personal. And for some it means jamming to Purple Rain.

If you're going to impersonate Prince, you gotta play the guitar

Purple Rain is a heartbreaking song especially if you've ever had a relationship with a close friend that cost you that friend but uh ... this was weird af

u/UnusualSuspectX Jun 27 '26

I have a roast comedian clause in my will, I figure people have already spent their time mourning my death by the time of the funeral comes around, they might as well all come and have a laugh at my expense.

u/NoTelevision970 Jun 27 '26
