Reply to TIL the band Grateful Dead got its name in 1965 after Jerry Garcia found the term in the Britannica World Language Dictionary along with the definition "the soul of a dead person, or his angel, showing gratitude to someone who, as an act of charity, arranged their burial". by big_macaroons
Cool. I would have thought it came from Shakespeare. I seem to remember the phrase in one of the plays. Something like:
"I would be grateful dead."
Could be faulty memory too. I googled it for about 2 minutes and didn't find the quote I was looking for.
