My grandfather was well known at work for, uh, creative sayings. Malapropisms, misheard cliches, or just wild-ass new phrases. His coworkers took to secretly writing them down over the years, and they read them off during his retirement party to universal delight.

A copy of the list ended with us, the family, and has come up during my grandfather's wake and a few times since then.

Absolutely agree that it might not be nice, but context depending it absolutely can be -- as well as a really touching legacy.
