Have a death packet put together?
If not, do it -Today.  It's much easier on the family if it's cut and dried in writing by you.

Me?
I'm going to be cremated, and will find a way for some of my ashes will be used in cement park benches at FSU, the rest will go with my wife who has decided to be buried with them.  But I told her if it creeps her out too much -to just dump em in the closest water source.


I would have done a search, but I don't care for the people that posted (if such a topic exists) a time ago my have different answers now.

Let my family do whatever the hell they want to do with rotting corpse, it would no longer be of any use to me and if burying me somewhere makes them feel better or they want to do it on the cheap and cremate go for it.

There's a relatively new (to humans) procedure where you are turned into a nonhazardous liquid and flushed down the drain.  That sounds pretty cool.

So people end up consuming you from the water table?  Shit. Why not?

Cremated. My family can do whatever they want with the ashes. Throw them in the nearest lake, or keep me in a urn somewhere in the house.

It just seems easier not having to reserve a plot, pick and choose a grave stone, choose an epitaph to add to it, etc.

Not joking.

Only if I can afford it at the time obviously. Although compared to most funerals, it's actually really not even that bad. According to the Wiki article most people pay for it with life insurance.

Is it crazy? Yeah. But shit, if there's even a small chance of getting to see way into the future, I'm doing it.

I actually put this as an option to begin with... I also put the stipulation you applied (payment).  I nixed it, deciding to lump it in with the 'other' choice because -I felt if it was included as a option, everyone would pick it -as a stab at resurrection all be it damn the costs (insurance will pay).

When it comes to death, I don't really care about sentimental stuff like what a traditional funeral would entail. My family is free to hold a service for me, but shit, I wanna see the future.

I'll tell my family to drop me off at the taxidermists. It would be hilarious for pranks and handy around Halloween too.
