Ever wondered why the dead are buried 6 feet deep?! It all started with the plague: The origins of “six feet under” come from a 1665 outbreak in England. As the disease swept the country, the mayor of London literally laid down the law about how to deal with the bodies to avoid further infections. Among his specifications—made in “Orders Conceived and Published by the Lord Mayor and Aldermen of the City of London, Concerning the Infection of the Plague”—was that “all the graves shall be at least six feet deep.” And so it became the standard all over the world.

Especially during this pandemic, and even after that Imma need my personal space. Gimme 6 Feet! Tell it without having to say it with this Fashionable Unisex Graphic Tee
