"Sorry, the cemetery is full. You cannot die."

That's pretty much what the mayor of a town in France told the locals after the neighboring town's council refused to let them buy adjoining land to expand their crowded cemetery. Apparently needing more room to bury people isn't a a good enough reason to expand, it "isn't justified."

What?!?

Anyway, as a result of this frustration the residents were told they are "forbidden from dying" and are being threatened with "severe punishment" if they die anyway.

Ha! As if dying isn't bad enough.
