When I was in "Creative Writing" class in high school, we had to produce a multi-media book with pictures, poems, stories and other elements. It wasn't exactly writing, but it was fun. When I turned mine in, I explained to my teacher that I have a twisted sense of humor, and that there were funny stories and images about death included.
She asked, in front of my classmates, if I thought death was funny. I said no, not always, but that sometimes it could be. She agreed, and I got an "A." And I wasn't put into psychiatric care, thank goodness.
Since then, pop-culture has made light of death in places like The Far Side, The Onion, and most notably, The Darwin Awards. I think that this year's Darwin Awards winner is all sewn up. . .
