Deathray 2,940 Posted June 4, 2016 You can disable new post notifications. I'd go nuts if the notifications bit pinged every time one of the nutters went on a posting bollocks spree. As it is, mine only notifies for "likes", which is usually followed by me thinking "So and so has liked my post in What thread? What did I post there again?" Yup, might need to take another look at my settings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youwanticewiththat 611 Posted June 4, 2016 R.I.P.? I wonder if anyone could point me towards any now deceased celebrities who are now, say, tearing it up on the streets of Cheam, or running a blag in Scarborough for examples? Where does the notion of R.I.P. come from? I should perhaps have posted this in 'Ask A Deathlister'? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where does the notion of R.I.P. come from? I should perhaps have posted this in 'Ask A Deathlister'? Is this a genuine question? It's an abbreviation of the old saying Rest in Peace, traditionally said to the dead person as they die, or once they have died. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathray 2,940 Posted June 4, 2016 a) The new skin is fucking awful. Especially on the homepage. b.) the update for Ali's death hasn't carried over to the new server. c) was the switch from vbulletin to IPBoard part of this move, or did I just miss that in the past. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not that you see any of the departed cavorting down the High St post-mortem or taking up Zumba or coming back to complain of their burial.

charon 4,943 Posted June 4, 2016 The 'peace' being they weren't dug up again. See that genocidal cunt Cromwell. Dug up years later and beheaded. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charon 4,943 Posted June 5, 2016 ? Just save the forum as your bookmark or whatever (I just use 'restore tabs' option in browser). Never go to the front page. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am aware of the wonders of WIKI, but we have some real experts here:) It goes way back. I want to say that there have been variations of "RIP" found back to the 10th century, but something in my head says even older than that. College was a while back. It's actually "Requiescat in Pace" - the Latin - and before that was "Dormit in Pace" (He is sleeping in peace). I've never seen anything that indicates the actual start of the idea that the body is "resting" rather than decomposing but I had a professor once link it to the idea that the soul and the body will reunite someday, at which time the body would be made incorruptible by God's power. So, in the meantime, the body would be in some sort of waiting period in the tomb. As far as I know it's one of those things that is lost in the beginnings of the idea of eternal life. Let me know if you find anything anywhere about the beginnings of these ideas. They interest me. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
