Back in the 1980's, while playing softball, we used to read the obit's in the local newspaper. (It was our custom - while our team was at bat)
There was one for a Bertha Bumchuckle.
It was a couple paragraphs. Everything but the name seemed real... so we had to conclude that ... some very cruel parents had named their kid horribly.
For use tween's, it was the funniest thing we had ever heard!!!
A quick Google search couldn't validate my claim .... but I got close....
For whatever strange reason I remember when we were young a few of us lads would read them too. How peculiar is that and why the hell would we? It's normally the province of those who are getting on a bit..
Unless you find a bumchuckle!!! :0D
