Kardashian Family Spotted Shopping For Their Gravesite

The whole Kardashian family (that's Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Rob, Bruce and Kris) were spotted out on a very particular shopping venture Monday. They were shopping for a gravesite.TMZ reports that the whole family headed to Hollywood Forever, which seems apropos when you are a group of people trying to hold on to your spot in Hollywood...for what seems like forever.
A serious consideration: How big of a plot or mausoleum they should get. "Kim and her sisters aren't sure how many kids they'll have ... but they want plenty of room for all," notes TMZ, adding: "Like we said -- creepy."
But when you think about, it's actually not really creepy, since if you want a say in where and how you are laid to rest, the time to do it is when you're alive. Will the Kardashians live on eternally in the afterlife at Hollywood Forever? That's not clear yet; apparently the family hasn't picked the spot quite yet.
