> I have a special hate for religious vultures who regard the death of someone’s friend or loved one as an opportunity for an advertisement. Some years ago, I attended the funeral of a friend who had been murdered. The preacher knew that some of her friends who were in attendance weren’t Christian, and decided that the middle of her eulogy would be a great time to insult their beliefs and declare that they needed to convert to his church to find comfort. It _still_ pisses me off every time I think about it.

Back when my father died, in 2014, a communication from a legal firm showed up by FedEx. I will include here the post I made on the Dope at the time. Many and varied were the ideas we were given on how to return the book we were sent.

> Huh, it was from a firm of personal injury lawyers, a book of theirs on “Winning a lawsuit with dignity” Yeah, right. My dad hasn’t even been dead for a frakking week, and the vultures send her something like this. Probably got his name out of the newspaper articles, or from the television news story.
