Today, I received a Snapchat of a horse-drawn carriage version of a hearse. I replied, "That's so extra!" because I thought it was finals week at her school. Turns out, she's at her uncle's funeral. He was an officer in the Air Force and there's going to be a 21-gun salute in his honor. FML

Today, my professor's son died in a car accident and class has been cancelled until further notice. All my friends were delighted and cheered about it in front of me. I was dating my professor's son. FML

Today, it was my first day as a mailman. One of the houses got a bunch of cards, and the owner coincidentally opened the door as I arrived. So I said to the owner that someone in the house must really be popular. He replied, "She died this Tuesday." FML

Today, at the funeral home where I work, I asked my boss if it was time to "bring out the stiff". I didn't realize the guy's family was not only in the building, but within earshot as well. FML

Is "that's so extra" a new expression? I'm only 26 and already I feel old with lit, extra, basic, squad, fam, woke, live, and savage.

So, what does "that's so extra" actually mean?

You probably should've clarified to make sure it was just a joke, but if you didn't know he uncle you couldn't have known. I'd probably make the same mistake, sorry OP.

I know what you mean. Some tween told me to "get shook." I had to ask my teenage sister. She told me that the person was basically telling to get "triggered" a.k.a. angry or upset.

That's so extra has been around for a long time. However, so have caissons. When I was in the navy, I was was a casket bearer and we use them for military funerals at Arlington.

Sorry, but I find snapping a funeral to be trashy. Just lost my dad last month (he was a war veteran too), and if anyone had been doing something like that, I would have had a problem with them. I feel for you, OP. Sounds like she posted it only to make people feel bad for her.

Condolences on your loss. I also would not be snapping photos of a hearse like that, much less Snapchatting them without any context. Unless OP's friend told him, how was he to know she was going to her uncle's funeral?
