I told you so
The name William H. Hahn Jr probably won’t invoke any recognition in any of us. If anything, the man was just an ordinary person like all of us. What makes him a bit of a legend in Princetown is his gravestone. The man ordered his own tombstone about two weeks before he was supposed to die. The saying on it? A very simple, but effective saying that definitely packs a punch: “I told you I was sick.”. Yikes, his close ones must have hated to see that when they went to bury the man, and it definitely gives us an idea of the type of person he was. One thing is for sure, he had a great sense of humor, despite how petty he seems to have been.
And he is not the only one with such a saying on his gravestone. Spike Milligan, who was an Irish writer and comedian, has a similar version inscribed, but he has it in Gaelic. The translation reads “I told you I was ill.”. A true comedian to the bones!
Great, humor.
This is the best, In my opinion, must be a genius.
The funniest I have seen is at the Tombstone Cemetery, in Tombstone AZ. It goes something like this:
“Here lies Les Moore. Cut down from two slugs from a .44. No Les, no more”
It really reads: Here lies Lester Moore , 4 slugs from a .44 No Les, no more
Why not, “The farts are now buried”?
Now this is a good one.
love this one..lol
You need new material.
where are they ?????
I grew up watching Looney Tunes and, therefore, listening to the master’s wonderful work. All I can say about his epitaph is that it could not be any more appropriate! 😁
These are all very funny but the funniest one I ever saw was Rodney Dangerfield’s stone. He is buried in the same cemetery as Jack Lemmon and Merv Griffin but his says, “There goes the neighborhood.”
Well Shit, THAT didn’t work !
Merv was never the host of Jeopardy!. Art Fleming hosted from 1964 to 1979; Alex Trebek hosted the revival from 1984 to 2020; and then Ken Jennings followed a group of host wannabes to take the reins of the show in the early 2020’s.
