I can’t imagine coming up with a wedding guest list. You don’t want to leave anyone out, but you also don’t want to pay $50K+ just to make sure your second cousin once removed—who you’ve only met once in your life—gets a seat. There’s a fine line. Plus, your parents usually want to invite people …

Apart from that one goth friend whose clothes are finally event-appropriate, there are very few people who get excited about attending a funeral–it’s sad, it’s morbid, and it’s a reminder of our own effervescence on earth.
