Funny Headstones Cracking Jokes from Beyond the Grave

A lot of people live their lives thinking about what they're leaving behind, what their legacy is going to look like once they're gone. Most of those people try their best to leave the world in a better shape than they found it, one step at a time. However, a lot of others are very skeptical about their legacy and the impact they can have, and leave all of their efforts for one final moment: their epitaph.

Your family and friends will remember you until they're gone, too, but what about the rest of the world? What about people 100 years from now? Their first impression of you might be the message you leave on your gravestone, so you'd better make it count. Is it going to be an important revelation? A philosophical question? Or a really good joke? It's up to you, but we know the correct answer.

If you don't believe us, check these funny headstones cracking jokes from beyond the grave.
