Putting the fun in funeral

A Brazilian man has admitted being addicted to funerals. Ananova.com reports that Luis Squarisi has attended every single funeral in his town for the past 20 years and has quit his job to be able to feed his addiction. He explained: “The first thing I do every morning is to turn on the radio to find out if anyone has died, if I don’t hear it on the radio I call the hospitals and the local funeral home.” A spokesperson for local funeral home, São Vicente, said: “We don’t want him to go to therapy, everyone expects to see him at the funerals. “If he stopped coming he would be missed and lots of people would be disappointed, he is famous already.”
