Dead man propped up, dressed in Green Lantern costume at Wake...

I don't think this is strange at all. This type of thing should be considered Normal. More people should do such things. These people KNEW how to Celebrate this mans Life in a way that's truly fitting. It's a shame more people do not know how to conduct a Real imo funeral.

I will. I have it all planned out already with loud rock music food, drink, dancing. My rule will be, if you are caught crying, you get forcibly kicked out as to not spoil it for the rest of my party goers. After all the food is gone and all of ACDC's greatest hits have played numerous times, I'll be laid in a boat and cast off shore to be engulfed by flaming arrows by my friends and family.

This is so awesomely weird.

I've always thought funerals should be more of a celebration of the individual and less a sympathy party for the living.
