Death related forumisms

They were way too young to be "taken from us".

Various images are used traditionally to symbolize death; these rank from blunt depictions of cadavers and their parts to more allusive suggestions that time is fleeting and all men are mortals. The human skull is an obvious and frequent symbol of death, found in many cultures and religious traditions.

Do you mean the home made brew?

@fmf said
No, I meant a fictitious bottle of stout called Grim Reaper produced by the local unlicensed and non-hygiene standards compliant micro-brewery.

I especially like this one: "Put to bed with a shovel".

I saw 'non-hygiene standards compliant micro-brewery' right away I thought home brew!!! 😉 Which of course has nothing to do with Death related forumisms.

Has anyone said: 'Bit the dust'?
