The Living Dead

An aunt decided this week to update her South African ID document. The birth date was wrong. They said, Sorry to inform you, Auntie, but you are dead. She said, But here I am, sitting in front of you! They demanded her death certificate -- as well as her birth certificate. She said, Where on earth am I going to find my death certificate? Not to speak of my birth certificate -- no one remains alive who can confirm a thing. She said, "I think I'll just keep the faulty ID."
