Dead snowman

- I wish to make a complaint. This snowman which was built on this ground not half a week ago, is dead.
- No, he's resting.
- Look, I know a dead snowman when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now. This snowman is no more. He has ceased to be, he's expired and gone to meet his maker. Bereft of life, he rests in peace. It's metabolic process is now history. He's kicked the bucket, shuffled off this mortal coil. THIS IS AN EX-SNOWMAN!
