If you had a story of your own recollection then you shouldn't need to read the obituary because your own personal story and feelings would mean more, but by all means be obtuse and clueless that should work too.

Did you die and no one had anything good to say about you? I can't figure out why else you would act like such a toxic edge lord

Did you not read the title? When someone you know casually loses someone. So your coworker who you know loses their aunt/uncle who you never knew what might you say about them?

Thanks for showing me how much of an ignorant edge lord you are.

You're so incessant on inconsequential semantics you can't pull your head out of your ass to see the whole picture. I'm done talking to you.

Always funny how when people are clearly wrong they complain others are using semantics when semantics are literally the meanings of the words used.

Did you skip every other paragraph? I wrote in the post that if you have that knowledge then to use it and offered another option as well.

Being obtuse and clueless would be the option of not expressing any kind of empathy or condolences to someone you care about when they are experiencing grief - because you couldn't be bothered to take the 45 seconds it takes to read the obituary.
