My favorite people to chat with are PS:
ID: graves are not nearly used enough, as works of art
8:49 PM PS: this is true
in the sense of post-war art, not traitional Christian/Catholic iconographic gravestones
8:50 PM ID: yeah i’ve always said i want like a TOMB
PS: the bases
ID pere la-chaise tomb
PS: are cool
ID: something interactive, preferably
PS: it makes them look like they’re hovering
maybe like a Build-A-Bear, we could squeeze your gravestone and have you say something from beyond the grave
ID: it’s sort of a modernist labyrinth
HAHAHA
you got it!
PS: good
8:51 PM I want your gravestone to be a PLUSH TOY
a giant plush toy, obvi
ID: have you ever seen that twilight zone with the phone?
PS: maybe
explain more
ID: the grandma is sort of overly involved in her grandson’s life
and the mom resents her a bit
and she gives the son buddy…? i think that’s his name
8:52 PM a red rotary toy phone
for his bday
then she dies
and he talks to her on the phone
…?

PS: nope
ID: i want my gravestone to be a little podium with a rotary phone
and you can come talk to me on it
PS: I can deal with that
8:53 PM vs. the plush toy
ID: well i don’t know
i’m picturing some hello kitty shit
stuffed animals were never quite my thing
PS: hello kitty rotary phone
ID: no, i mean for the stuffed animals…like …a beanie baby for a gravestone?

PS: meow ^@^
(that would be a cat, if we had emoticons on)
😮
8:54 PM tacky, but still funny, and very dark
beanie babies have their dark side
I’ll stop there

but not for eternity

There was a televangelist in the 80’s that put a phone in his dead wifes grave so she could call him from the other side. Ernest Angley is his name and a great Wikipedia read.
