Other cultures ritually consume parts of dead relatives. Richards was certainly aware of the anthropological relevance of his actions at the time, I'm sure.

As an undertaker, I feel it's necessary to say, "I've heard of worse." Still, this is a great story, true or not. It has a ring of truthiness.

I'm pre-emptively starting up a "Snort Keith Richards" business -- you gotta figure his ashes would have more than their fair share of psychedelic properties...

Hmm. The legend of Keith Richards heroic appetites seemed previously something that occupied no less than a few sensational paragraphs if not an extensive magazine article. Now, I imagine it will be difficult for any future reference to not begin and end with this one sentence. I can't quite make up my mind if he has diminished the legend with a petty one-up or is displaying the zen mastery of reducing the entirety of his "achievement" to something like a haiku.

"I was No. 1 on the `who's likely to die' list for 10 years. I mean, I was really disappointed when I fell off the list," Richards said

After the apocalypse there will be nothing left except Keith Richards and some cockroaches, and the generation after that will eat its own shit and be rock gods. Which is to say, this doesn't surprise me in the least.

The keef tag is totally warranted here! I once witnessed an individual take a fat toke off a bowl topped with grandfather ashes. forthelulz would make a nice addition, for posterity's sake.
