I think it’s a shame that when we figured out skyscrapers we didn’t start doing that with the dead. Catacombs in the sky reaching to the heavens.

I’m gonna go pay my respects to grandma she’s in the towns bonescraper. Smash cut to a giant tower made of skeletons.

Aliens come down to that kind of society, they’d want to party with us because that’s metal as fuck

Well have you seen some of the catacombs we do have. Skull piles, bone art, all pretty metal right there too. But not a skyscraper metal.

Have a big reservoir at the bottom that collects all the water runoff and uses it for the city water supply.

Bone water. Yummy.
