Help, save, whatever.

Here in China they have snake wine. It usually has a real dead cobra in the bottle with a dead scorpion or something cool like that in its mouth.
When I die I want to be put in a giant jar filled with alcohol then have me propped up into some cool fighting pose...I want a cobra in my mouth and a bunch of scorpions around me. People can drink my liquor for medicinal purposes.

Cremation. Burial seems so selfish. You cost your estate to buy a plot of land for god knows how long, then you rot away taking up space. I bike through a cemetery to work every day. What a colossally useless thing that is. It could be a park for people to play in, or additional housing space in the inner city, or whatever. But no. We've got a massive hunk of uselessness. About the only benefit is it is a home for rabbits and coyotes.
You want people to have a memorial for you? Fine, sprinkle your ashes somewhere meaningful to you, leave a little plaque if you can. It will be much more pleasant to visit than a vast expanse of other rotting corpses.

Set adrift on a wooden boat, which is then set afire by a burning arrow.

I'd like to be put in a freezer and then have that loaded with beer, hustlers, cd's, cheezies, etc. And then sent into space to be found by an alien culture at some point.
Or cremated, definitely not buried, being buried seems barbaric to me now.

Cremated for sure after my organs are harvested and science is done with me.. Sprinkled on a hot beach somewhere in the Caribbean. I also do not want a funeral, a simple drunken memorial is fine playing all my favorite music.

I think it would be cool to end up in one of those science centre body excepts where mummify you. Cadaver for med students to work on would be pretty neat.
As far as being remembered I'd like a bench put on some hiking trail in the mountains with a plaque on it.
Also I want to be stuffed and put on the couch

Cremated and my ashes scattered at an alpine lake.
In jest... keep some of my ashes and put them in Eric Francis's coffee so he can choke and sputter on my dry remains, and my legacy will be I was the only person to shut him up, if only for a minute or two.

Oh, I'm too young. By the time that my time rolls around, we'll all be living on Saturn and have access to indefinite cryogenics technology. So, my answer is: frozen, mostly dead

I don't plan to ever die, but I suppose if I have to Tibetan sky burial seems good by me.

I did some research on what people are doing with their cremains:
http://nwcalgarylaw.com/cremated-remains/
Quote:
– There are companies that create diamonds from the remains by treating the ashes under high heat
and pressure
– Ashes can be launched into space in earth’s orbit
– Ashes can be transformed into vinyl records
– Ashes can be made into tattoo ink
– Remains can be deposited in containers on the seabed
|
Personally I'd like to be scattered in the Livingstone River. Trout food.

Initially I wanted to either be rolled down a mountainside for bear food, or to be blown up by my body weight in C4, but Mrs Puppet has refused to participate in either option. So it's cremation and scattering for me. Dump me in the Atlantic.

I don't care what happens to my body but I want my funeral to be like a Flames playoff game.
I want lights out, fog machine, lazers, flashing red lights etc. An intro video set to hyped up aggressive music. In Your Honor by the Foo maybe.
Then I want Navras to play and Beasley to announce me to all of the funeral guests like he does the Flames starting line up.
And the crowd damn well better go wild.
After that I don't give a crap. Normal stuff I guess.

I would honestly like to participate in education. Put me on the table and let 1st year students identify tar stains on my lungs and the craters on my liver. And, when they're done, stuff me in a tie n' toss. I promise I won't argue.

Reality I want to be stuffed and mounted with an accusing look on my face and mounted on the mantel of my enemy
Reality I'm donating my body to a medical school so something good can come from me. Personally once I'm gone I won't care what happens to my body.
As I've also told my family, the whole funeral thing isn't going to happen, the money spent on it will go to a liquor drenched party. Honestly though, by the time I go, my funeral would be a pretty lonely affair if I had one.

Cremated. No need for my body to take up space on earth and costing money to lie there. Cremate me, then throw me away. All evidence gone.

Donate every piece of me that's still useful to someone else. The rest can be buried next to my wife. That's what she's told me anyway and it's not a hill to die on for me.

Cremation is so selfish. The building they cremate you in could be better used as a cancer research Center or maybe even an AIDS cure research center. Very selfish of you fuzz.

They've done this a few times in Vikings. Always amuses me that it keeps drifting in the right direction out to sea. What if you had an unfavorable wind pickup or something? Next thing you know you have this burning raft coming back at you with a skeleton on it that wants to park on your beach.

Buried, cremate, funeral pyre, whatever. Funerals and the rest are for the living not the dead. Whatever my loved ones want to do with my carcass is fine. What the hell do I care? I'll be dead.
