    For the record, I’m pretty sure it’s “posthumous.” I read that as “post hummus” and got very confused about what Jesus has to do with chickpea-based dips for a second.

      Even better, humus is a layer of soil and it’s not inaccurate to refer to most people after death as “post soil,” though Jesus is an exception there.

        You’re totally good; I just have this compulsion to correct misused homophones. It makes me pretty insufferable to have in a text thread, but I can’t help it sometimes
