No worries. I knew you were just kidding and not trolling.
Some situations are irresistible. The late storyteller and radio host Stuart MacLean had one of his hapless characters, Dave, imagining his own death from being run over by a diaper truck. It wasn’t being dead that worried him so much as the certain knowledge that when the minister at the funeral got to the part about Dave having been taken from us so cruelly someone was sure to snicker, which would grow to a flood of uproarious laughter. (As I’m doing now.)

Life’s like that, sometimes. Don’t sweat it.
