Well, that's an enlightened view
of the Grim Reaper, isn't it?
But in truth, we are very afraid of him.
Because he's coming for all of us,
even though we don't want to think about it.
The Grim Reaper is often,
for good reason,
associated with War.
We try to deny our deep fears
by making jokes and poking fun
at the Grim Reaper.
But we've seen altogether too much
of him in the last couple of years.
So let's all cheat
the Grim Reaper
a little longer!
I much prefer the Valkyries.

I didn’t see THAT ending coming. I’m now back to looking at Mr. Quincy Fluffins. Crocs would be a good idea on the Grim Reaper’s bony feet.
ReplyDeleteThe grim reaper has a lot of work the US currently.
ReplyDeleteHahaha
ReplyDeleteOMG fantastic. The one of shenanigans and fuckery up ahead? Yes. Or the one with Mr. Quincy Fluffings and the boom boom! The crocs? I'm dying here.
XOXO
Dang, he deserved Employee of the Year for two years running. He ought to take it up with management and see if he gets a bonus. :D
ReplyDeleteThe last two? Priceless!
ReplyDeleteHaving someone escort you to the next thing wouldn't be so bad. Better image though if he'd leave the scythe at home.
ReplyDeleteVery funny throughout but ending with a timely message. To bad the drooling Trump cult of personality isn't reading your blog.
ReplyDeleteJust one more episode ... and one more blog post.
ReplyDeleteMight as well laugh, mortals. The end cometh!
ReplyDeleteBut, who says it can't be funny, amiright?
One more episode? The grim reaper may die first.
ReplyDeleteLoved the ending..I don't know why but I had a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach while reading this..Very strange..
ReplyDeleteI do love buttercup. Funny in a grim sort of way.
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever Public Service Announcement. Love it.
ReplyDeleteThat pale horse and cat named Death? As precious as it gets.
Happy Halloween, 4 days away.
AHAHAHAHAHA! Great post today, Debra. After the last couple of years, the poor bastard probably does need a hug and a vacation on a flamingo floatie!
ReplyDeleteThat one more chapter, one more row, one more cookie..
ReplyDeleteLOL... these are brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI got the Moderna vaccine to keep that fucker away
ReplyDeleteFor sooth, knowest thou how to say "scythe"? (I don't.)
ReplyDeleteLove Buttercup and the kitten :-)
ReplyDeleteGlad you threw in a cute kitten on a unicorn.
ReplyDeleteHey! Crocs can be ridiculously intimidating.
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree, let's get vaccinated and make good old skully have to wait another day.
I’d be comforted to know that Terry Pratchett’s Death was coming for me when it’s my time… but these are some very funny versions! I especially like the kitten and the Pale Horse! Not called Binky, I assume?
ReplyDeleteMaybe the grim reaper wishes more people would get the vaccine. Possible does he/she need less of work load.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Hee hee hee giggle giggle giggle Death wearing Crocs!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this grim reminder! LOL, Debra you always make me smile! Have a very special Halloween! Diane and Guy Noir
ReplyDeleteAll very funny. I love the Grim Reaper. Well, as an icon. And my favourite is l'Ankou, the Breton version.
ReplyDeleteOh that Grim Reaper! I love the hoax jokes! The Grim Reaper has been busy lately.
ReplyDeleteNow I know where QAnon came from.
ReplyDeleteOh my, these were too funny. Especially the Wurst one. :)
ReplyDeleteBlogger keeps eating my comment. These grim reaper funnies are wonderful! "Wurst" was a great groaner of a pun. And "...Just one more episode is funny and terrifying. Loved the "Employee of the Month" ending and the vaccine message. Colorado is a hot spot right now. I don't understand people! Take care, Debra!
ReplyDeleteDrat! I could not find find the Terry Pratchett quote about a man asking Death what makes life meangiful. Death replies cats are pretty good for that.
ReplyDeleteThe pale horse and the employee of the month were my top picks. Love your blog.
