My wife just passed away from a lifelong battle with a complicated genetic disease (she was only 29). In accordance with her wishes, I played this at her celebration of life. She certainly got the last laugh, as it made us all bawl and laugh at the same time.

This is one of the darkest and most hilarious things I’ve ever seen. No blood. No gore. Just a happy tune before a slow and horrible death.

I don’t ever talk about this, but since it’s the internet; this song has seriously gotten me through so many dark and depressing days through the years. So simple, yet never fails to make me grin (also it says cheer up Brian, and that’s my name so)

Being at the lowest point of my life, this still makes me smile till this day
