搞笑的墓志铭有很多,比如“其实我是卧底”之类,不过像下面这几个因为名字的关系而生成如此喜感的墓志铭的,可就是真的独一无二了。看来,取个有个性的名字,还是有长远效果的……
1.Sir John Strange
Here lies an honest man,
And that is Strange。
--A lawyer's tombstone in England
Strange,一个奇怪的姓氏,滑稽而又无情地“否定”了这位律师的美德。
2. Reader if cash thou art
In want of any
Dig 4 feet deep
And thou wilt find a Penny
--John Penny's epitaph in the Wimborne, England, cemetery
“看官,您若缺钱,不妨掘地四尺,就会发现一便士。”果真如此,“便士”兄弟的玩笑可就开大了。
3. Here lies Ann Mann
Who lived an old maid
But died an old Mann
--Dec.8,1767
又是姓氏弄人!她孤独地死去,还被改了性别,变成了man(与Mann谐音)!
