Things you don't want to hear....

Actually, that title should read:

"Things you don't want to hear said about you" or more specifically, "Things I don't want to hear said about me"....or if its possible "Things not to say at my funeral"

- "She was larger than life." This is a euphemism for something else surely, and its usually used when one has died, choking on a sandwich or similar. I really do not like that phrase at all.

- "She gave it her all" or "She always did things to the best of her ability" - again, a euphemism for "she was crap but tried". Not comforting words.

- "I think I still have a CD/DVD/book of hers" - Give it back. I am still alive.
