My husband I were driving around and he saw a sign on the side of the road saying... "Caskets On Sale Now". After seeing it, he said to me....." Hey, Honey, let's buy a Casket and put it in our living room. It would be cool because Caskets are built really nice and fancy. They build those things like nice cars"
And then I asked him what is he going to do with it. He said.."Well, we can put in in our living room and maybe store stuff on it. Or maybe use it as coffee table. Those things are really nice and I bet if we have one one those in our leaving room, people would think it's really bizarre and that would be cool"
I was really disturbed by this comment and I told him how I felt. He said he was joking around. But the way he said it he sounded VERY serious and even if it was a joke, I didn't find it funny. A CASKET IN OUR LIVING ROOM? Is that funny?
My husband is a future lawyer, very smart and can sometimes have weird sense of humor. Is this something to be alarm and worried about

You are so over reacting.
The guy was making a joke. You are too serious.

Disturbing is in the eye of the beholder. My brother is this totally weird goth guy that would totally put a casket in his living room. Especially if someone had once been in it. He loves to get a rise out of people...

You will not have to purchase a casket in the future. Actually, they do make furniture, clocks, and all kinds of things that are actually caskets for people who want to buy their own and not burden that cost on someone else when they are gone.

You answered your own question. He has a weird sense of humor. Morgue humor really does not bother some people and if the number of tv shows dealing with death, the dead, and dying are any indication. The next generation will be even more macabre.

If you actually took that seriously then you are the one who is disturbed. It was clearly a joke. You telling him how you felt about being bothered by his joke makes you sound nuts.
In fact you posting this question makes you sound nuts.

I would just laugh about it. I mean, sure.. it's a bit of a strange idea.. but it's certainly not worth getting all worried about. I think it's kinda funny..
