Title: How do you want your funeral?
Post by: Tapeworm on August 21, 2008, 09:55:41 AM
You don't want everyone's last memory of you to be in a drab funeral home.  Something alfresco perhaps?  Standing?  Lying down?  Suspended from cables?

What shall we do with the body?  Burial?  Cremation?  I plan to be flung into the sea from atop a cliff by a 100ft trebuchet while a band plays one of those bouncy New Orleans funeral diddys.

I told my wife to buy a 100 bucks worth of fire wood.
Dump my corpse on top and torch the sucker.
When you are dead you are dead, the important part is gone.

They say the funeral is for the living.

Maybe I'll give everyone one free swing with bat (no face shots).  Drape me across one of those carnival games where you whack the base and ring the bell at the top.

I agree but it gets taken to far.
People actually go into debt to bury there loved ones, what a rip off!

Weird question but here's my take. I think cremation takes half of the bad feeling from death. I am more freaked out out seeing someone in a coffin looking very little like they did when they were alive than seeing an urn with ashes. At funerals with closed caskets people don't get as sad as when they have to see the body. Good for the environment, all-natural, less sadness and no necrophiliacs  ;D. Cremation all the way.

I grew up next to a man that owned a Beer Distributorship.  As you entered the funeral home they were pouring beers from a keg and asking if you'd like to have "one last beer w/_____."

Yep, definitely something upbeat.  Don't want anything remotely dignified tho.  Being flung off a cliff by a trebuchet seems a fittingly absurd end. 

Ending up in the sea seems right since I eat a lot of fish.  Never eaten worms tho so burial doesn't seem fair.

Tell your lawyer to make them do it in order to get the inheritance.  When it's done, let them know you already gave all your money to the last hooker who blew you.

I would like to be shot into outer space directed at a galaxy with the highest chances of intelligent life, which might be able to clone me, then my cloned self will become the fuhrer and take over the known universe.

All i would like in a peaceful dignified ceremony is Mary Fryes 'Do not stand at my grave and weep' to be read out.

Possibly 'You raise me up' also sang

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.
