Norwegians have a story about two wives quarreling about who has the dumbest husband and they decide to try. So one tells her husband he's about to die and is dying and finally dead and while he originally objects she is so persistent that he ends up alive but perfectly silent in his own funeral, that is - until his neighbor comes in in his birthday suit after his wife has made him a stylish suit of the same kind that the emperor got. At that point the supposedly dead guy can't manage it anymore and cries out laughing at his neighbor coming naked in his funeral. Sometimes I seriously wonder if some of the stuff that gets posted here is that kind of stuff.
