Kinda morbid but it's an end well all battle, unless they invent the immoral cure(which I'm totally cool with)

what is your preference? Do you want to be in the ground or cremated?

Personally, I want to be cremated and apart of places I enjoyed in my life. I don't want to be in the ground in a coffin. I want to be apart of places I enjoyed in my life and remembered on that soil over some cemetery.

Saw a few friends as corpses and it always troubled me.

What you think?

Cremated. I've always wondered why we don't do something more economical and better for our planet. Can they just plant a tree in my memory and spread my ashes around it, maybe put my name in the tree? That sounds nice lol

Yep, I can't stand any of that, cremation for my flesh.

They still rob you to burn you... but not as bad.
They get you at your lowest... then rape you over a box.

I always found it honorable to be cremated. I just think laying in a ground literally rotting is sad, with whatever you shared in your life.

But to be scattered at places that meant something to you in your life. People can remember you and know in a small piece, you'll always be apart of that and they can remember you in a spot.

My mother in law passed away last Tuesday.

Anyways, they decided to have her cremated. It was much more affordable than a casket/burial. Her mom was Catholic (Italian) and even if cremated, the church will recognize it as long as they witness the burying of the ashes. Apparently burying the ashes is a requirement. Just passing that along as it was news to me.

After a health scare a few years ago, I told my wife to have me cremated and throw my ashes in my favorite fishing lake.

You could get cremated for awhile in the Catholic Church. I want to say 10 or so years that I remember.

Cremated. But I also want my gravestone to be a standard sized beer pong table so teenagers can party at my grave at night because I spent a lot of summer nights getting fucked up in my local cemetery when i was a teenager. Yes im serious.

Obviously I want to be encased in a giant bronze statue of myself stepping on top of weak children while holding an oversized chainsaw in one hand and a 40 of Old E in the other.


Serious response; I've discussed this with family and put it in paper. I just want a natural burial. No embalming fluid, just the body in a particle board coffin with burlap to suspend the body. I want a tree sapling of their choice planted over my coffin, and if they want, add a small engraved brass plaque as the memory-marker/headstone alternative to the base of the tree. Plot is purchased, arrangements are made. They also have my permission to donate my cadaver to students as an alternative.

What matters to me is following the example of economical and ecologically minded persons who have done this in the past, and to further serve as an example to my family to hopefully take a more environmental position on their death. Funeral services in this country are beyond corrupt, pray on the emotions of the grieving to up sell worthless things which winds up further burdening them. Including exploiting the faith of the family by bullshitting people into doing "proper burials" that have nothing to do with their respective religion. I can't stand it, and hope all of you who haven't been open to natural burials to rethink it.

Exactly and balls attached might I add.
