Social Vampires & Vultures

Traffic wardens, Funeral directors and such to you and I. I have pondered this subject for quite some time now and I've come to the conclusion that these people truly are the vultures and Vampires of our society today.

Take Funeral directors for example, these people actually really piss me off, I know that might offend a lot of people but I find their false solemnity deeply offensive. They stand there looking unhappy and glum whilst your dear departed`s are whisked off on a virtual conveyor belt of black morosity. The sentiment these people project is of course false because inside, those very same people are smiling to the very depths of their wallets and their bank accounts. These people prey on the dead for Christ's sakes!

Can you think of an animal on this planet that does that? Yep, right a god damn Vulture for one. Funeral directors are Carrion, that`s all there is to it.

"Of course we'll see to it that your loved ones have a dignified send off sir", yeah for a fucking price..... Usually a very VERY hefty price at that.

Not only do we have to feel low, bad and spiritually exhausted by the loss of a loved one, these people come along and screw us whilst we are down and at our very lowest ebb.

Vultures I tell you, Vampires one and all.

All our lives we pay taxes to the government, you'd think that the least those governments could do once we coil up our mortal coils and die is give us a good send off free of charge wouldn't you. But no, these bastards are allowed to get rich off the pickings of those suffering great loss.

If I were to find out now that I was going to die in a weeks time, I would say my goodbyes to my friends and loved ones, have a great piss up and then on the eve of my death, I would go out on the moor and throw myself into a peat bog so that nobody has to suffer financially to send me off.

Who the hell needs all that extra worry of funerary costs at a time like that anyway.

To hell with the Vultures........
