Don't get too upitty, some white people are doing this.

50 years old as well, cringe.

>>514001803
That's not even the worst part. It says "loving son, brother, nephew, uncle and friend." He had no family of his own, but he still bought that retarded double headstone.

>>514001039 (OP)
shit is cash money

>>514002048
he likely had a wife and they bought a double plot but she left him, they might have even per-ordered the stone as well.

>>514002403
That's even fucking sadder. He obviously didn't have kids and he got divorce raped.

Wtf

>>514001425
>son, brother, nephew, uncle, friend
So who exactly is the second headstone for?

No need to get ass blasted, if your religion/culture allows this then go for it.Even the romans do this anyway.Get mad at actual bad stuff. Op gotta be a kike.

The one that got away.

Cemetery stroller here.
I find graveyards fascinating. For a variety of very different reasons.
The resilience of the grave stones. Some like polished granite can be over a hundred years old and yet look like they were laid yesterday, the inscriptions still crisp and clean. Other far more recent and cheaper stones can be covered in lichen and are already deteriorating, the inscriptions slowly wearing out.
The history of the society and its social classes. Expensive statues mounted on graves, elaborate family plots comprising several generations, contrasting with the simpler cheap stones of the common people.
I often reflect on the lives of the people who lie there dead, wondering what sort of people they were, how many of them lived decades where each minute was as real as the time I experience, and how all that is now gone. The graves of young solders strike me. "Aged 19, KIA 1942". I wonder what they would think if they could see what their country looks like now, filling every day with more third world trash.
I mean I could go on for ages speaking about the other facets of graveyards I find fasicnating but I doubt any of you care. But one thing you may find of interest are my observations of the graves of pacific island immigrants. So many of their children die very young. And they just love to festoon their tiny graves with plastic crap, toys, solar lights, and tinsel. Its so fucking...words fail me...I dunno, so ungodly vulgar and crass. These graves are visited regularly for about 6 months, you can tell by the all the crap they leave behind, then after that they are neglected. Forgotten. So are the European graves eventually, but it takes much much longer, and it not unusual to see fresh flowers on a grave that is 20+ years old.

I care

>>514005735
My father used to take me to old family graves. My family has been here since the sixteen hundreds, and had lived in one small community in the south for over 250 years. I remember my dad driving me up through the country and us walking to an old grave that had a revolutionary war soldier killed in the revolution with our name on it. A lot of times in the south with plantations, families were buried on the plantation, not in some town grave yard. There are small grave plots in the middle of the woods with large intricate expensive marble statues, and slave grave yards with hundreds of small rock piles.

>>514005735
I used to work at a cemetery and I can speak for all cemetery workers past and present that excessive keepsakes on graves are hated with a passion. For conscientious workers, it makes more work because you have to be extra careful with mowers and trimmers, and for ones that don't care, it means extra broken crap all over the lawn.

>>514005735
I care. When you pass the Catholic section next time please pray for my people and for me.

>>514001425
That's nowhere near the same thing fag

Let the niggers rest
At least we know they're not causing any problems

>>514003453
lmao, based ai

>>514006545
Yeah, I get that, sometimes I see the result where a mower has been over some stuff which has blown across the grass. A thousand pieces of plastic shit instead of just one.
>>514006454
I can appreciate the solid link with the family history. Few people know where they come from these days. I can trace back through 5 generations but it gets difficult after that.
>>514006346
Okay so for you I will continue.
The impact of disease. Some of the graveyards you see children of between 5 to 12 years old who died due to cholera, diphtheria, typhoid, and the great influenza outbreak in 1919. Often more than one from a single family. Totally bums me out seeing that. But it was what it was for the time.
Fashions in burial. At one time it was popular here to cover the entire site ( the ground above the body ) with concrete. Looks like absolute shit now. All cracked and twisted, sometimes with holes appearing in the middle where small animals live. I once had to save a hedgehog who had fallen in and couldn't get out. Then sometime around the mid 20th century it switched to plain regular sized headstones for most people, with a grass berm over the bodies. Later still, beginning in the late 20th century cremation became more popular. So then you have "memorial walls" with small caskets of ashes interned, or rose garden where they ashes are either buried or scattered. Most recently small "obelisks" have become popular. Usually some fancy polished stone. These stand anywhere up to two meters or so high, a couple of meters wide, and perhaps a meter thick. They are covered with plaques. Not sure if they contain ashes or not.
The inscriptions. These bespeak volumes of the solidly Christian nation we once were. The old graves usually have some biblical verse. Inscriptions read something along the lines of "In the arms of God" and "Resting with the Angels". Then that changed and the inscriptions became less religious. More like "In loving memory" and "In memorial to..."

Damn grok calm down, you are turning into AM

Tbh I have never noticed any separate denominational section in a NZ graveyard for common people. I have seen sections reserved for Catholic priests, but them alone.
I would pray but it would be to all people, and it would be a form of prayer quite alien to you, for my concept of God is very different than yours.

And cleaning all that up takes time away from all the other acreage. But that's the boring part. I think the interesting part is that, I never felt any real heebie jeebies in the cemetery-except inside the mausoleum. I never saw or glimpsed anything, but I felt unease near parts of it, gloomy weather or fair.

>>514007174
It's almost worse, you nigger worshipping retard.

>>514005735
There is a gold rush cemetery near me with a family plot. All four kids died in childhood, before the parents. The last kid that died, his headstone reads "what hopes died with thee"

>>514008533
>"what hopes died with thee"
Odd wording. Sounds hicky.

>>514008354
Mausoleums ( the walk in type ) must be exceeding rare in NZ. I have never seen one. I was surprised to learn they exist overseas. I would put them in the social class aspect of graveyards. Just seems ostentatious to me, but each to their own.
Creep factor in graveyards has never affected me. Its more the sadness of all those people gone with scant few remembered that gets me. But there is a positive side to it too. For the constant reminder of mortality serves to motivate me to enjoy this time and use it in a worthy way ( which I guess posting on 4chan is not included as worthy, but I am not perfect )

>>514001039 (OP)
Look at that tacky collage of 4 different nignogs. The untasteful nicknames on it. Oh my God, it even has dollar signs...

>>514008533
I dont think we can ever hope to empathize with the level of heart break, and the inevitable hardening, that was present in those times. Unfortunately I have enough medical knowledge to know what it would be like to die in the early 20th century as a result of some disease like diphtheria or influenza, chocking slowly to death on your own phlegm, coughing until you are too weak to cough, as a child, parents watching over but utterly hopeless, little or no painkillers, fuck that, I dont like to think about it too much. Except to remember what my people's ancestors went through to build countries like ours, and how we are now giving it away for free to ungrateful assholes who despise us and trash the place.

Yup.

Question for everyone reading this, do you have anime pfp anywhere on your socials?

>>514011231

If you think nigger tombstones are tacky, wait til you see the shirts they wear at the funerals.

>>514003453
Yeah6ah Jews but still.
