my stepmother is putting the video of my father's funeral on YouTube
:grr: I. AM. FUCKING. SPEECHLESS. :grr:

It was taped?
You're sending DVDs to those who request them?
You're putting it on YouTube?
Yet you're not going to place a fucking obituary?

I'm just absolutely fucking speechless

I'm going away for the night so i will read replies in the morning.

I'm so sorry that you're having to deal with this on top of losing your dad.

Some people have no sensitivity...

That we are living in the End Times. :yoiks:

I'm so sorry. On top of grieving you have to deal with this sort of tasteless garbage. Appalled doesn't even start to express my feelings.

:hug:

7. It's really sad...
..there seems to be no privacy in death. I don't really understand the reasons people do the things they do after someone dies. :hug:

8. I am so sorry bertha.
I don't understand her thinking at all, but you or your siblings can pay for a newspaper obituary for him in HB or wherever it would matter most.

9. I'm So Sorry
For your loss.

As appalling as your stepmother's plan seems, it's probably right in tune with American pop culture, these days.

10. Let us know when it's there.
Not to see it, but to comment on how utterly tacky it is to do something like that and to complain to YouTube about allowing it.
