Co-worker’s father died. I’m going to the wake in a little bit. I don’t want to be disrespectful.
The only wake I’ve ever been to was my grandmother’s ~4 years ago. Obviously, I knew what to do while I was there.
What can/should I do at this one?
Can I talk to girls there?
Do I have to pay my respects to the deceased?
(I’m not overly religious, and have no idea any sort of prayer to recite while I’m in front of the casket. I could MAYBE pull off the Lord’s prayer in my head.)
I’m dressing mad fly, so I’m not sure to as the proper etiquette to display when all the grandgirl’s and nieces are approaching me.
what can i say to the guy and his family? I don’t want to say “I’m sorry” or something weak and chintzy.
dress however, (dont wear a lime green pimp suit). pay respects to the family, if you didnt know the guy close you dont have to pay respects to him. You can talk to whoever. I’ve been to enough of these already.
I’m definitely going to be girl hunting. However, is it okay if I smoke? Will that be a major turn off at a funeral for someone who passed due to cancer?
Don’t pay your respects to the deceased. You didn’t know them, why whould you? You’re there to support your coworker. On that note, don’t be a bag and try to pick up girls at a wake. Have a little class.
odds are people are going to be more worried about funeral arrangments and comforting eachother rather than you smoking…just be nice and respectfull…dont get bombed like my uncle pete and yell at jesus infront of everbody for taking a loved one…
what no… No place is better to pick up chicks is at a wake… Its the easiest way to see who is single and who is available… They always bring their signif other if they have one…
See a girl by her self make a friend get a number… and steal her jeans
I’m not literally going to try and pick them up. It doesn’t hurt to lay a little foundation. Hell, they may even be tricked into thinking I’m a loving, caring individual. Plus it’s only til 6. Perfect time to go grab drinks before the T-Day eve rush.
