A New Jersey high school student who hopes to become a funeral director has surprised her classmates by arriving at her prom in an open prop coffin .
Megan Flaherty says she mainly wanted to have fun while attending Pennsauken High School's junior prom Saturday. The 17-year-old says she checked with her date to make sure he had no reservations about her plans.

I dread to think what most 17 y/o girls want to do after graduation these days.
Apropos the latter comment, Don’t follow your passion.A very thought-provoking Prager U. vid.
I, of course, consider myself an expert on teeth. I've often on grown a beard to spare the masses from my weak jawline, but if nothing else I am blessed with naturally straight teeth. Yay me!

You think she ordered the vegetarian meal?
I can top that.
My mom’s urn was a large plastic juice box-looking thing.
It had what looked like a pop top.
The joke that broke everybody up was “surprised she didn’t just give you guys an empty Folgers can to hang onto”. Those were her primary storage. I remember her complaining when the coffee world started switching to foil lined cardboard, not nearly as durable, no good for storage.
I was in the “prom” scene over half a century ago. Our boys
were “boys”. We dressed up, went to the “dance”, but the
“boys” just stood around and refused to dance. - Fang went
to high school dances; but always refused to dance with
Twinkie, though he was Mr. Twinkle Toes with all the other
girls he dated. - Finally, at a nephew’s wedding, he
“danced” with old Twinkie. Tried to twist my arm back behind
my back like he used to do to the girls he danced with. It
hurt & I told him I couldn’t take the arm twisting. Now, I
don’t care anything about dancing if I have to have my arm
twisted off in an out of fashion “pose”.
Beautiful girl; beautiful dress! Good luck in the funeral
profession!
People her age tend to think they’ll live forever; or failing that, think the next 70 years they have will pass slowly. Little do they know that after age 40 the next 40 years go by quickly.
glad she didn’t aspire toe be a septic cleaner
You just made me feel better about my lack of dancing skills;). My prom era (25 years ago) was during a time where dancing was just hopping around to the beat, no actual moves with your partner.
My husband and all his brothers dance the same way...right down to the “white man’s overbite “.
LOL. Good for her!
Glad this story is not a trans trans trans made because he/she/it didn’t win Prom King Queen.
it’s a play on the words “Drop dead”...
