For all those who don't get it. Mozart composed. He was a composer. Now he's dead. So he's Decomping. it's a joke.

That probably should have been included in the post...

no because that would've defeated the point. you're supposed to try to get it yourself. not all posts are simple and clear cut.

But the post by itself is too ambiguous. That could mean a number of things that make sense.

Well, if the comment is required for readers to be sure they interpreted the post correctly, then my opinion is it should be part of the post. It's not a big deal, though.

well how would have you included that in the post without making it sound cheesy or stupid?

Mozart's pretty much doing the opposite of what he used to: before, he was composing; now he is dead, so he is decomposing.

it drags it out a bit to much for my liking but it doesn't really matter lol

I totally was like "he used to write music... and now he's doing the opposite, not writing music. Because he's dead. He used to be alive and now he's dead? What is the joke here?"

That reminds me of a joke I found through StumbleUpon! Although I guess the punchline is kind of ruined now, but whatever. One copy and paste later... When Beethoven passed away, he was buried in a churchyard. A couple days later, the town drunk was walking through the cemetery and heard some strange noise coming from the area where Beethoven was buried. Terrified, the drunk ran and got the priest to come and listen to it. The priest bent close to the grave and heard some faint, unrecognizable music coming from the grave. Frightened, the priest ran and got the town magistrate. When the magistrate arrived, he bent his ear to the grave, listened for a moment, and said, "Ah, yes, that's Beethoven's Ninth Symphony, being played backwards." He listened a while longer, and said, "There's the Eighth Symphony, and it's backwards, too. Most puzzling." So the magistrate kept listening; "There's the Seventh... the Sixth... the Fifth..." Suddenly the realization of what was happening dawned on the magistrate; he stood up and announced to the crowd that had gathered in the cemetery, "My fellow citizens, there's nothing to worry about. It's just Beethoven decomposing."
