It's creepy but open caskets are just as creepy. I was forced to kiss my dead grandmother when I was 7. Kissing a cold corpse was traumatizing.
Real talk.
I remember my great grandfather who passed away when I was a kid. Kissed him on the cheek when he was in the casket, and just feeling how cold and stuff his skin was. It was unnerving.
But it is trying to pay respects. My grandmother died a year ago. Like literally watched her die from pancreatic cancer. I didn’t really wanna go to her wake after that. But still did. Just seeing her lifeless, I don’t like that memory being ingrained in my head. Especially if the mortician doesn’t do a good job. I could hear my aunt saying she looks different. Even my uncle who died a month prior from covid. I didn’t see him, but my aunt said she didn’t recognize him.

I went to one funeral and won't go to another one. That was over 15 years ago. Me and dead bodies don't get along. I can't imagine partying with a corpse suspended over the dance floor.

Tbf, there’s cultures that literally dig up their dead loved ones on their birthdays(I think it’s their birthdays), to dress them up and dance with them for that day. The burry them back again.

I'm sure there are. There are also cultures that cut women's genitals off before they hit puberty and cultures that think it's normal to talk to kindergartners about sex. I don't want anything to do with any of those cultures. The one I grew up with worked out just fine.
I have zero problem with how family chose to display this guys body.
Heck, this is what he may have really wanted.
Tacky? I don't care, that's in the eye of the beholder.
Heck, they won't let you do a viking funeral etc. and those were pretty awesome so maybe we can all just not be a bunch of Karens and let his family do their thing whether it's what we want or not.

I could have paid my respects without kissing her. My parents didn't even kiss her. I never wanted to go to another funeral again. I'm sorry about your grandmother. Seeing a loved one in an open casket is the last image you have of them and one you will always remember. I don't like that.
The Democrat base turned out for this macabre display. But, it appears the Hennesy and Colt45 was flowing as the tunes played and the corpse dangled there. Unbelievable.
Yeah, I guess for me, part of what makes it so creepy is the fact that this is in a nightclub, and his corpse is hanging upright and he’s dressed in gangster gear.
I personally have no issues with open casket funerals in a funeral home, church, etc, where the person is lying in the casket, and dressed nicely (although I understand how it can gross people out).
This is a corpse donned in gangster gear, being dangled from the ceiling upright in a nightclub. It’s just plain creepy and disturbing. The combination of the setting, how he’s dressed, and how he’s dangling from the ceiling. To me that is not “basically just an open casket funeral.”
