Is it just me or...

is this totally wrong? I forget what, exactly, I was looking for on Google, but "attractivecorpse.com" came up on the third or fourth page. And once you see it, that's not something you forget easily. I did debate for awhile about whether such a thing might be a hoax--after all, Dr. Kevorkian didn't get away with helping terminally ill people die. How could there be an entire company devoted to making suicide "beautiful"?

But I forgot: We're talking about LA. Things are different there, I know, I just never thought that would include--well, that. It seems to take "morally reprehensible" to unheard-of levels.

And just how would one get into something like that, anyway? What enterprising entrepeneur thought, "I know! Designer death! Brilliant; it'll sell!"?

And in the FAQ's:

"Isn't this service immoral?

"We do not consider helping someone find peace and beauty in their last moments to be immoral. Attractive Corpse also takes steps to make the loss easier on the deceased's friends, loved ones, and other survivors, and we consider this to be a great good."

Fanbase, I have no words. And considering my URL touts my verbosity (of which there has been admittedly little of late) that's just sad.

Again in the FAQ's:

"Do you sell gift certificates?

"We consider requests for gift certificates to be in poor taste."

Well, there's that, at least.
