Humor – PIC: Sign outside a cemetery. Apparently only the best (and most tasteful?) for those interred there. Check out the last line -- nothing like appealing to our own mortality. And what's so bad about plastic or rubber or synthetics?
I can imagine the pre-screening interview: How do you feel about, let's see, plastic flowers? Yea, because we're looking for (deceased) people who don't like them...you know, people who would literally turn in their graves if one were placed nearby....
Artificial plants? We prefer you don't like those either but, push comes to shove, we won't "kick" you out if we notice them once in a while....
Whole thing is ridiculous. Wonder when those rules were adopted and actually put on a sign. Maybe the town has a rash of people invading cemeteries and planting plastic flowers?
Cemetaries are for the living, not the dead. When you cheapen them you offend the relatives of the departed.
That said, it is not inappropriate that the owners/operators of the cemetary want to maintain the highest standards. What is sad is the number of people here who think that they should not bother.
