From the “Time to give up on the human species” file: Adele’s “Someone Like You” is a top picked funeral song in the UK, according to a new list that just came out. Yeah. As in, “Don’t worry, Pops. We’re bummed you’re dead, but don’t worry, we’ll find a replacement, who will be like you but probably better. We hope you and that dick, Jesus, are real happy together. NBD.”
The rest of the (equally awkward) list is below.

1. Frank Sinatra – ‘My Way’
