That's a huge step up from Olds' basement. It smells like fear and old people.

You've been to Olds' basement and lived? You must be colluding with the old bastard.

I read "colluding" as "cuddling" and got a little giddy.

And excrement. You get a lot of it when you combine fear and old people.

I realize this is a really old thread, but I just discovered this term and found this thread. A funeral apartment is part of a funeral home building that has been constructed with apartments adjacent to viewing rooms for families to stay overnight on the premises.

I suggest you look up shomrim,

I Spent a Night Watching over a Dead Person

I learned what it takes to be a shomrim—someone who keeps dead people company in the days before their funeral.

Some Catholics also practice watching over the dead, usually over dead clergy.
