Imagine how awkward a funeral would be if the corpse could actually hear the sobs and kind words being spoken over them.

Actually, some people are into that kind of thing. There's a whole subculture that fetishizes consensual, reversible death; it's called 'snuffie.'

Living funerals are not that unusual or awkward.

Depends what kind of living funeral we're talking about...
