Looks like they didn't have him covering the brake.  Is that safe practice for street/funeral riding?

It bothers me to no end that you can see the support running down his neck to his ass.  I don't wanna know how they did it.

That's the part that bothers you--that they didn't hide the rebar by shoving it up his ass and through his gullet and into the base of his skill?  Not the part where they put a dead dude on a motorcycle in a race tuck for his funeral?

Nah...tacky is tacky is tacky.  Tackiness doesn't bother me.  There's all sorts of connectors n stuff under there though and you can kind of see it.  I wonder if they had to do something to the bike to make him stay put? Impaling him would have been much cleaner from a structural standpoint.  The assembly is offensive to my designer's sense.

Hat should be backwards, boxers could cover the rebar.

obviously none of you are irish (except dq and perhaps sig. moore) ... as the irish REALLY know how to throw a wake. 

irish wake instructions:

  • bring the recently departed into the local pub
  • stand them up at the end of the bar
  • hoist drinks (guiness and/or bushmills) to him/her
  • repeat as many times as required, until the only one left standing is the recently departed

i am irish on me ma's side o' the family ... and i have witnessed the above firsthand ... until i passed out

1.  You bein' Irish explains a lot. 
2.  Guess the Health Code in the Isle o' Green isn't quite as strict about that type of stuff as they are here.  I'd be PISSED if I walked into Zeitgeist and saw a cadaver holding court at one of the picnic tables.  At the very least I'd request a repeal of the "no sitting on the tables" rule.  If dead, maggoty people can hang out there, I want to be able to freely plop my arse on one of their greasy tables without fear of reprimand.

yes, irish AND canadian ... what a combination  [drink]

well, the health codes in ireland have tightened up since i experienced the pub wake ...  they even have indoor plumbing and electricity to most of the country now  [roll]

as for dead folks at the zeitgeist ... how can you tell?  8)

The dead ones don't start beating on the door as soon as you get into the bathroom. As for the bartender....
