From posting selfies at funerals to mourning the death of robot dogs, our generation has pretty much made a mockery out of the solemn ritual of burying the dead.
So how do you go about telling the social media set how to behave at a funeral? By taking over Vine with the trending topic #worstpersonatafuneral.
The hilarious hashtag surfaced on Thursday thanks to a few brief six-second sketches by Vine star J. Cyrus. The musician and comedian posted vignettes of himself as, you guessed it, the worst person at a funeral.

From making obnoxious jokes at the expense of the deceased to eulogizing the dead by talking about the time you took their virginity, Cyrus’ posts were as hilarious as they were morally reprehensible.

Death: you’re doing it right, but also oh so wrong.
