Line 366:
* [[Christopher Titus]] described his father's exact wishes on how he wanted his funeral and how he wanted to be buried. He wanted to be put into a cardboard box, "open casket," a cover charge at the door (ladies get in free), and everyone would get a chance to pee on him (complete with Willie Nelsons "Blue-Eyes Crying in the Rain" playing). And that isn't even covering what he wanted done with his ashes...

* [[Joan Rivers]]' funeral in September 2014 played out exactly as she had requested in her 2012 book ''I Hate Everyone... Starting With Me'':
{{quote|''I want my funeral to be a huge showbiz affair with lights, cameras, action. I want Craft services, I want paparazzi and I want publicists making a scene! I want it to be Hollywood all the way. ... I don’t want some rabbi rambling on; I want Meryl Streep crying, in five different accents. ... I want to look gorgeous, better dead than I do alive. I want to be buried in a Valentino gown and I want Harry Winston to make me a toe tag... And I want a wind machine so that even in the casket my hair is blowing like Beyoncé’s.''}}
:She got everything but the wind machine, plus hilarious and touching tributes that left the attendees laughing between their tears.
