People died here.

As stupid as the original design is, I fail to find the humor in turning this into a joke.

People die everywhere. It is not the fault of the author of this parody. He/She did so due to the actual design of the memorial plans. If you must find fault find it with the original design. Think about it. : )

Interestingly, I don't even see this as humor but rather a comment on the absurdity of the original design and its ridiculous explanation of it.

People died on the road you live on - Should we buldoze it?

The joke itself is humorous, isn't it? The original design was a joke, too. Remember the three laughing Buddhist monks.

Humor is usually the best way to cut through bs and crystalize core issues.
Most people talk way to much and say too little.
Humor helps allows less talking and allows the real issues to brought to light.

"Laughter sets the spirit free to move through even the most tragic of circumstances. It helps us shake our heads clear, get our feet back under us, restoring our sense of balance and purpose. Humor is integral to our peace of mind and to our ability to go beyond survival."
