As in "I ate'nt dead yet!"?

Dat's der bunny! Although Pratchett's Granny Weatherwax character never used the word 'yet'.

I remember hearing that when I was young, so I assume I must have been hearing the same sort of thing Mr. Pratchett incorporated into his stories.

This puts me in mind of the 19th-century craze for elaborate casket devices, added on (and in) on the off chance that the corpse interred therein wasn't corpse-y enough :-)
