Tombstones Sayings

    In the beginning the universe was created, this made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move, but with life come death and with death often brings tombstones. Now many games use tombstones to write jokes or even references on so if Starbond where to have tombstones what epitaph would you write on yours or should I say have written on yours.

    Mine would be "Gee, he was here a moment ago."
    Although my favorite epitaph would be (ok I admit that sounds weird) Edger Allan Poe "Quoth the Raven, 'Nevermore."

    Google famous last quotes; there's a website for that.

    • My favorite quote would be from James French, who was excecuted by the electric chair. His last words were: " Hey, fellas! How about this for a headline for tomorrow’s paper? ‘French Fries! "

    "Such a waste of a good stone"
    "Too much space donuts. Poor lad"
    "Swallowed a lot of vacuum" (not my idea but i love it so much)

    Maybe we can add custom saying to differnt deathes? For instance:
    Murky tried to swim without floaties-drownd
    Murky thought he had fire-proof pants-lava/burned alive
    Murky picked a fight with a Viorb(this changes depending on monster)
    Murky forgot his clip-on wings-fell to death
    Murky turned into dust-burned to death
    Murky was vaporized-killed by a lazer/energy weapon
    Murky is now swiss-chesse-killed by a ballistic weapon
    Murky thought god-mode was on-random death note
    Murky believed in being immune to explosions-died of explosive
    Murky picked a fight with nature-drowned, lava, killed by a tree i dont know...
    Murky fought the law, and the law won-space police/moderators :3
    These are retrospective to the differnt deaths.

    Thought of some more last night.
    "Hold my drink your going to love this."
    "Looked up an elevator shaft to see, if it was on the way down... It was." (not mine but still funny)
    "I'll be back."
    "Betty White told me to."
    Edit - "He's spending the year dead for tax purposes."
