How did you feel?
Upset? Traumatised? Relieved? Like poking it with a stick?

Obvious enough, I suppose, but I felt bored and decided a little mischief was in order.
So, seated next to my younger impressionable brother and landlocked by grieving relatives, I nudged him slightly to draw his attention then pointed at the enormous dangling crucifix above the altar and said, "Jaysus", which in a deep Dublin drawl is the funniest, most inappropriate thing you will ever hear at a Catholic funeral.
Poor guy was inconvulsions and drew stares from all and sundry.
I buried my head in my chest and appeared the perfect grieving grandson.

There's something about funerals which makes it so hard to stop laughing when something like that happens.

i've got a mate like that, he can't go to any church service without getting the giggles, which turns into full-on bellows of laughter, meaning he has to leave the church
