Hey, Waffle Gang. I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more Reddit stories. And if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider?

0:12.8

And I'll like, subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. And let's crack on with today's first story.

0:18.8

Much love, guys. Now, today's first story comes from the Am I the Asshole Subreddit from Safe Criticism 8,500,

0:25.2

and says,

0:26.1

Would I be the asshole if I play a song that my mum chose for her funeral, knowing it might

1:18.5

to take that joke in the same spirit.

1:21.0

I think that some of the more religious friends and family members might be extra upset

1:24.9

because there's a certain repeated line that implies she's going

1:27.9

to hell. Plus, we're explicitly having a non-religious service and one of said family members

1:33.7

has already expressed disappointment with that. So on the one hand, I think it's my mom's funeral

1:39.1

and I should respect their wishes above anyone else's opinions. But on the other hand, I realize that funerals are for the living, and it's pretty disrespectful

1:48.0

to do that, to do something that's going to upset those actually in attendance, when obviously,
