If I'm Ever In Grave Danger, I Beg Of You To Honor My Life Through Memes And By Attending A Blink-182 Concert
Obviously the biggest story of the week is this missing submarine that was on an exploration to the Titanic wreckage which has gone missing. 5 people are lost at sea in a tiny vessel and the story gets more dire by the minute. But because this story wasn't already weird enough, with the weirdest part being that it is controlled by a knock-off PS2 controller, the step-son of British billionaire Hamish Harding confirmed his step-father was onboard the lost submarine via a Facebook post....

…and then let everyone know his step-father would want him to honor his life by attending a blink-182 concert.
The entire internet is calling this weird and blah blah blah. Nah, fuck that. If I'm stuck in a submarine 12,000 feet below sea level, don't stop your life for me. The world keeps on spinning, and Mark and Tom only tour together once every 10 years. Look, I'm in this submarine regardless of if you go to that concert or not, so you might as well go. So everyone can chill with calling Brian distasteful. Music is great to clear your mind and allow you to forget about the tragedies of life for a second, until Adam's Song comes on, then all bets are off.
There's also a lot of memes going around on Twitter and a lot of them are pretty funny. I actually wrote yesterday about a scene in the new season of Black Mirror that showed how we as society will take a tragic event and make it into pop culture, completely ignoring the deaths and tragic events of it all. But I'm cool with it for when I die (at the rate I'm going, could be some time next week). Meme me into bolivia. Make them tasteful, of course, because my family will be sad. But you know, lets get some laughs going. Nobody wants a boring ass funeral. Put Tommy on the Aux, tell some stories about the #2 in command at Barstool, and get your likes and RTs on Twitter. And for the love of me, play blink-182 as you lower me into the Earth, it's what I would have wanted. (Just kidding, being buried is an insane ritual, just build a bench for me somewhere or something. But play Blink still.)
