Dark Humor/Play on Words

Yesterday my husband read a post about Ted Kennedy's death (I do not know where he saw it) that included the Latin phrase:

"De mortuis nil nisi bonum"

It literally translates to:

"Of the dead say nothing but good"

It is the source of the the English phrase, "Never speak ill of the dead."

But, applying the Latin literally to Ted Kennedy's death, the poster responded:

Ted Kennedy is dead?

-Good.

I was chuckling about it all day.
