Re: In Remembrance of Cuff
I only had a few exchanges with Cuff, but they were memorable. He made me fall off of my chair laughing once with a tell he sent me after I purchased something from him on the broker. To all his friends and family, please accept my best wishes and condolences.
Funerals and other events or places of communal gathering, including this thread, serve to ease the suffering of those who are living, be them friends, family, co-workers or acquantances of the deceased, etc. Most of us who qualify as humans attend many funerals in life. In the case of some of these funerals, we attend and gather not because we feel a personal loss, but because we wish to provide comfort to those who do feel the loss and to honor their memories of the deceased. It is true that different people deal with the loss of someone dear to them in different manners. Some cry, some shut down, some laugh, some go numb. If, however, at least one person who is suffering is in a grieving state, then it's pretty clearly inappropriate to expect them to adopt the view that death is a time for humor, especially where the humor does not honor but disrespects the deceased.
For those of you who have posted in an egregious and disrespectful manner, I hope that your funerals will be well-attended, if only to comfort those who survive you for having to put up with your miserable existences.
