The Morgue, Then Merrier



Most, gladly, will giggle and snort
Quite madly, some prigs won't cavort
Why fight it, we're mortal
We might as well chortle
And sadly, the gig is too short.  


In the Betty Boop cartoon Ha! Ha! Ha! (Dave Fleischer;1934), laughing gas causes various inanimate objects to laugh hysterically, including a mailbox, a parking meter, a bridge, cars, and gravestones. Title by drop dead funny Donald Benson.
