It's your funeral...

[jak722]

First and foremost...

 

 

 

No Autopsies or embalming.

 

 

 

I'd like to be buried 1 kilometer deep under Antarctic Ice in a glass coffin.

[Hydraides]

I want to be turned into a diamond

Thats from the smirnoff advert

[Sumpta]

Use whatever parts of me that are still useful, the rest of me can be tossed into a coffin. I'd prefer to be buried, since a grave is a bit more personal than a little box in a wall with other boxes.

 

 

 

I'd love to have an informal wake for me, nothing religious, just a gathering of friends and family, with good food and lots of wine. They could talk a bit, laugh about my good and my less amiable qualities, console each other a bit if need be, etc. Irish kind of wake, maybe a song or two. Mmyeah, that would be really great.

I'd like to be stuffed. Then have someone take me around the world and take pictures of my stuffed dead body... And then they can leave it on top of the Whitehouse. And for my funeral, it would be happy. With cake.

[Bubsa]

I want to be stuffed. Yeah, that's right. Hands on hips, looking to the sky triumphantly, and placed on a 10 foot pedastal.

In a thong? :o :shock: :lol:

[Sir_Alex85]

Crap. People beat me to it.

 

 

 

I was going to say, I want to be stuffed and placed on my couch, holding my chin in a somewhat quizzical way.

 

 

 

 

 

With the TV remote in my hand. That way my family have to touch me to get the remote.

 

 

 

hehehehehehehhehehehe

 

 

 

And as a joke my wife can get some cardboard and tape it to my mouth and make speech bubbles.

 

 

 

"Mom, I don't wanna eat my broccoli!"

 

"Listen to your father."

 

 

 

And there I am, speech bubble taped to my mouth "Eat yo veggies or you gon get grounded"

[Zonorhc]

I don't plan to die.

 

 

 

Dying is for noobs.

 

 

 

L2Play, jerks.

[IGoddessI]

Huge celebration, bright colours and good music, funny stories and for Pete's sake crack open a bourbon or three.

 

 

 

The only reason I'd want people to wear sunglasses at my funeral is if they're stonned, no crying 8-)

 

 

 

Cremated and scattered over Victor Harbour bluff, with the penguins, seals and whales.

 

 

 

Do not stand at my grave and weep

 

I am not there; I do not sleep.

 

I am a thousand winds that blow,

 

I am the diamond glints on snow,

 

I am the sun on ripened grain,

 

I am the gentle autumn rain.

 

When you awaken in the morning's hush

 

I am the swift uplifting rush

 

Of quiet birds in circled flight.

 

I am the soft stars that shine at night.

 

Do not stand at my grave and cry,

 

I am not there; I did not die.

[BlueLancer]

 

But if someone actually did, I wonder what it's like to have a clientele composed largely of psychopaths :-k.

 

 

 

I actually found the idea of making the ashes of a dead person I hold dear (or myself) into a jewel which can be preserved in the family for hundreds/thousands of years beautiful and honourable... :lol: But maybe I should go for psychological tests...

[Barihawk]

I want a creole funeral.

 

 

 

Lots of good food, music, remembering the good times.

 

 

 

And I prefer the traditional style of burial. I will pick out the lot by the time I am 45, and have the whole damn thing paid for by 50. It really takes some of the emotional edge off when you have it planned. Just don't overplan the funeral though.

[BabyPunchers]

In a hospital bed, then shoot an arrow out the window and have them bury me where it lands.

 

 

 

I like Robin Hood a lot =P

[epeeflecher]

...

[andufusthebronze]

I want my ashes scattered very far out to sea...

[dsavi]

I want to be turned into a diamond

That is really creepy:

 

 

 

 

You tell it like it is, dude.

 

 

 

I want to be buried. Isn't that original? BTW, weird thread.

[SirHartlar]

I'd like to be cremated, assuming the doctors make sure I am 100% dead first. The idea of being burnt alive doesn't appeal to me much. :P

Yes, and I can understand that :P . But the people who wrote those letters (again, if they're even real) seemed to consider they're loved ones remains to be fashion statements or something.

 

 

 

Eh, still creepy to want to wear the body of your deceased loved one around, no matter the reason :P . Maybe if they were turned into a diamond and put somewhere in the house, instead of worn; like being put in a little mini-shrine or something [Eastern culture]... that would by kind of cool and honorable : .

[Necrobean]

I hope something Lenore-alike.

That's exactly what I was thinking of... The idea of wearing my grandfather's remains on my fingers or neck doesn't really sound appealing :-#

I think the whole idea seems pretty cool. It's like wearing the cliched locket with a picture of them, but...it's actually them. Adds a little bit of a personal touch and better sentimental value. But the way those letters are written.... :uhh:

I'd guess it'd be far worse if you wanted to be buried instead. *shudders*

 

I'll most probably be buried. Nothing special. After all, people should remember me because of what I did while alive, not because they're wearing me.

Add a cool carving to the ring with the remains, sprinkle it with some holy water, at least you'd get a legit excuse to wear a ring called "Blessed serpent ring of the Grandfather" at work or pass it to your children as a heirloom without looking dorky.

[Darkluniux]

My followers should build an awesome funeral construction similar in awesomeness terms to the Egyptians Pyramids, inside the temple, my body should be preservated for ages (like Lenin's body) and lay in a explendid gothic-like sanctuary. My funeral temple should be rounded by giant colossus despicting my image...

 

 

 

Yes, that should be...

 

 

 

If not, then I will not die.

[rileycore]

I could barely care less. I'm dead so I don't care. :lol: Randomess ftw.

[The Real ET]

I want to donate as much as body as possible for medical purposes to help other people stay alive. Then I want to be naked and wrapped in this large blue blanket I've had for years and put into a thin coffin (I think pine wood decomposes the fastest). I just want to decompose as fast as possible to give my minerals back to the ground, and the only reason I'd wrap in the blanket is so people don't have to look at me naked at the funeral. :P
