Obituaries Puns

The Pillsbury Doughboy, remembered best as "Pop N Serve", and/or "Pop N Fresh", died yesterday of a severe yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71.

Doughboy will be buried in this lightly greased coffin.

Dozens of celebrities will turn out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch.

The grave site is expected to be piled high with flours.

Aunt Jemima will deliver the eulogy and lovingly describe Doughboy as "a man who never knew how much he was kneaded".

Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers.. He was considered a very smart cookie, but wasted much of his dough on half-baked schemes.

Despite being a little flaky at times, he still was a crusty old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions.

Doughboy is survived by his wife, Play dough, three children: John Dough, Jane Dough and Dosey Dough, plus they had one in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop tart.

The funeral will be held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.

He didn't like being the bear of bad news.

"Look at all these people who stopped smoking today!"

My dad replied "well people are just dying to get in there"

"How much does a Grecian Urn? Oh about 200 drachmas a week."

Nice to know even in death Dads and Grandads can still crack jokes.

When you get to the obituaries pause and say "hmm" like you see something interesting.
Wife or kids will say "what?" and you say "they all died in alphabetical order!"
It gets better after the 5th or 20th time.

From his obituary, I learned he was quite famous in certain circles.

Obituary

His obituary said it was the wurst way to die.

Dad is sitting at breakfast table across from my brother and he grabs the newspaper. He turns it to a seemingly random page, looks up, and utters "Spencer, I see dead people". My brother goes to see the page. He turned it to the obituary section. Goddammit Dad.
