"I see dead people"

I referred below to the famous line from The Sixth Sense: "I see dead people. All the time."

Some months ago it struck me just how hilarious this could be as a little in-joke at, say, an annual pathologists' or morticians' conference - I would guess black humour is rarely more fitting than at such occasions.

I've said this to some of my friends, and they laughed of course, but not as much as I thought was appropriate: come on, if you don't find the idea of pathologists sidling up to each other in the corridor, or the lift, and whispering "hey Frank, 'I see dead people. All the time' geddit?" hilariously funny, well, really, you don't get funny pal...
