Walter Vietnam Veterans Memorial Joke

my cousin walter died in hanoi. it was 1996 and he was on a sex tour. he must have had some bad coke and his heart exploded while he was on top of a sex worker whose age isn’t relevant. six months later his name was added to the vietnam veterans memorial in washington dc The 5 victims who lost their lives in the submersible expedition to Titanic are being honored with ceremonies at 2 museums where the original 1912 tragedy is memorialized. tmz.me/smgvZ3d

A dark-humor tweet invents a story about Walter dying in Hanoi during a sex tour, then absurdly claims his name was added to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial. The embedded TMZ post about the Titan submersible victims creates the punchline through a false parallel between the unrelated deaths and memorials. It is used as a reaction to mock forced comparisons, inappropriate solemnity, or bizarre attempts to connect unrelated events.
