The NY Times Nietzsche obituary

Which reminds me of an even funnier, more clueless obituary in the New York Times: that of Friedrich Nietzsche.

August 26, 1900

OBITUARY
Prof. Nietzsche Dead

By THE NEW YORK TIMES

Weimar, Aug. 25.–Prof. Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, the philosopher, died here today of apoplexy.

Prof. Nietzsche was one of the most prominent of modern German philosophers, and he is considered the apostle of extreme modern rationalism and one of the founders of the socialistic school, whose ideas have had such a profound influence on the growth of political and social life throughout the civilized world.

“One of the founders of the socialistic school.” Right.
